Before every Ohio State men’s basketball game, Connor Lemons gets you ready for that day’s action with key stats, players to know, and prevalent storylines for that day’s game on the “Good Hoops Morning” podcast.

Ohio State got bodied on the glass in their last game, ceding 16 offensive rebounds to Pitt that led to a 15-shot disparity between the two teams. The way Pitt dominated time of possession — to use a football term — limited Ohio State’s opportunities to shoot, and in the end, was enough for the Panthers to have a chance to win it at the horn, which they did. By adding seven-footer Christoph Tilly and moving Devin Royal from power forward to small forward, Ohio State thought they were improving their size, physicality, and toughness. It did not show last Friday, and now the Buckeyes are tasked with winning on the road yet again. Northwestern found themselves down 23 to Wisconsin at halftime on Wednesday night, as the Badgers capitalized on key Wildcat turnovers and hit 11 three-pointers in a 12-point Wisconsin win. The Wildcats will look to build off of recent success against Ohio State — they’ve won each of the last two meetings with Ohio State by 20+ points. Connor’s prediction: Northwestern 70, Ohio State 67 Connect with Connor: Twitter: @lemons_connor Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang.
