No one expected Michigan State basketball's hot-shooting, high-scoring finish to the regular season to carry over. And it didn't vs. Ohio State.

Hauser had seven points at half, four of them at the free-throw line, while Walker and Mady Sissoko each had six. Felix Okpara then swatted Malik Hall's layup attempt, one of five blocks in the game for the OSU big man, and Sueing made it back-to-back triples to push the Buckeyes' lead quickly back to eight. The Spartans made one final surge, getting within six with 4:54 to play on Hoggard’s driving layup. But they had two games under their belt here already, and we knew that was going to be the case coming into the game." "I really would just say we were kind of giving up too many driving lanes, and we were getting put in tough situations because they were confident from 3 today," Akins said. I think we're trusting the pass a lot more and playing way more together on that end." Sueing drilled a pair of 3-pointers and Sean McNeil another as OSU took control 15-6 spurt into the midpoint of the half. And to be honest with you, I don't think I had a very good plan to attack them," Holtmann said. "But I give a lot of credit to Ohio State and to Chris Holtmann. The Buckeyes (16-18) — who won without star freshman Brice Sensabaugh (knee) — advance to play top-seeded and No. The Buckeyes went 21 for 34 from the arc in those last two games. The Spartans (19-12), who scored 80 points in four straight games to close the regular season, shot just 3 of 16 from 3-point range.

The momentum it’s recently built up should allow OSU to make things interesting but not enough to keep from falling short. Stephen’s pick: This train should come to an end on Friday. His emergence is the primary reason why the most disappointing Ohio State season in over 25 years is all of a sudden providing some buzz in the Big Ten Tournament. 2, the freshman point guard averaged just 5.4 points on 27.1% shooting and 25.9% from 3-point range.

Ohio State defeated Michigan State 68-58 on Friday in the 2023 Big Ten Men's Basketball Tournament, setting up a semifinal matchup with Purdue.

The Ohio State basketball team is playing its best basketball of the season and another win, this one over Michigan State, has us thinking.

Okpara’s offensive game isn’t quite as polished, but that very well could have been a product of playing time. He’s really starting to remind me of Ken Johnson, one of the conference’s greatest shot blockers. Gayle Jr., was clutch with the game on the line, scoring 7 straight. He scored 15 points on 5-of-8 shooting, perfect from beyond the arc ( 3-of-3) and the free throw line (2-of-2), while adding in 3 rebounds. I sure didn’t, but the other freshman contributor has come up big recently and today was the biggest. Holtmann opted to wait until the lead was just two, but the team responded and went on a quick 6-0 run forcing the Spartans into a timeout. The run has been all about defense and the Buckeyes are executing at a high level right now. When MSU went on the run early into the second half, I was screaming for a timeout to be called when it cut the lead to four. The Buckeyes have put the clamps down on their opponents in Chicago. I know that I have mentioned this before but there is something to be said about a team that was down and out and rose up when it looked like they had nothing to play for. Thoughts [Ohio State](https://buckeyeswire.usatoday.com/tag/ohio-state/) basketball has won yet another game in the [Big Ten Tournament](https://buckeyeswire.usatoday.com/tag/big-ten-tournament/), this time knocking off No.

Lansing State Journal columnist Graham Couch gives his initial thoughts on MSU's loss to Ohio State at the Big Ten tournament with 3 quick takes.

But if MSU was straddling that line between a 6 and 7 seed, this probably affirms the Spartans’ placement as a 7 seed, meaning they'd face a 10 seed in the first round and, if they win, a 2 seed in the second round. Losing to Ohio State probably won’t drop the Spartans a seed line in the NCAA tournament. This might wind up being a Quad 1 loss for MSU by the time it’s all said and done, if Ohio State winds up in the top 50 in the NET rankings. And when MSU cut the Buckeyes' lead to 56-50 in the second half with a quick four points, Hall replaced Sissoko. And Friday should have been the perfect matchup for it to be an advantage, with Ohio State center Felix Okpara in the game, the Spartans needing a jolt offensively, trailing 24-17 with 6:30 until halftime. The idea behind a lineup with Joey Hauser and Malik Hall as your power forward-center combo is that it should cause a headache for your opponent’s center, trying to guard a quicker, more skilled player, someone they have to defend out to the 3-point line and chase out of the paint. The good Hoggard showed up for a while late, trying to pull the Spartans with him, erase the damage from early in the game. This is the sort of afternoon a team has to be able to overcome. It lost to the Ohio State team it narrowly beat at home last week. That team has a point guard who sometimes gets ahead of his skis — like when he unsuccessfully tried to dunk the ball on a fast break at a key point in the second half when a layup would have done the trick. MSU did not lose to the Ohio State team it beat 62-41 a month ago in Columbus. It’s the execution, the shooting, the connectedness — that’s where the Spartans are supposed to have an advantage.

The Spartans saw their hot shooting run come to an end in their postseason opener to the Buckeyes.

But the Spartans missed their next two shots and Ohio State hit a 3-pointer with 3:13 left to go ahead by nine. Hoggard set up by a Mady Sissoko block that cut the Spartans’ deficit to two points at the 16:35 mark. The Spartans are expected to earn an at-large bid into the field between a No. 4 seed Spartans came out flat while playing the No. The No. Hoggard twice hit shots that ignited the significant Michigan State contingent at the United Center: a 3-pointer with 6:07 left that cut the Spartans’ deficit to eight points and a floater with 4:54 left that made it a six-point game. Michigan State will now wait to learn its fate in the NCAA Tournament when the field is announced on Sunday night. Michigan State finished 3-for-16 from the 3-point line and at 38.2 percent from the field. But freshman center Jaxon Kohler missed a layup on the Spartan’s next possession, and Ohio State got two quick 3-pointers on the other end to go back ahead by eight points. Despite all of that, Ohio State defended the Spartans hard and hit tough shots to put Michigan State in an early hole from which it never climbed out. After an early made 3-pointer by Joey Hauser, the Spartans missed their next seven 3-pointers and struggled to get to the rim against the Buckeyes’ interior defense. It crashed back to earth at the United Center, going 1-for-9 from long range in the first half against Ohio State as it fell behind by nine points at halftime.

Izzo irked by Spartans' defensive effort in Big Ten Tournament loss.

They were a good defense, they were good offensively and made some shots. I said to our media for three weeks that I didn't think our defense has been very good, and it would get you in a tournament, so I guess my experience kind of gave the answer. I thought we had as good a three days of practice as we could have. We were ready to go early, we get a little lead. We started out the game pretty good, but I give a lot of credit to Ohio State and to Chris Holtmann. CHICAGO — Michigan State's stay in the Windy City was a short one, as the No.
