It was another Ohio State basketball game inside the Schottenstein Center on Tuesday, and yet another loss — the Buckeyes third in a row and seven of the last eight. In the end, the Buckeyes lost 87-75 to Illinois.
It was a fairly competitive game unlike what we saw over the weekend at Northwestern, but if we’re being real, there was never really a point in the game in which anyone believed Ohio State was going to pull this one out.
We like to bring you some of the best photos from all of the action on the hardwood for the Buckeye basketball team, and we’re doing the same despite the loss in this one.
Here are some of the best high-resolution pictures we pulled from our image library for your viewing pleasure.
