“Ohio State is the real deal. Aaron [Craft] sets the pace for OSU and tries to set the pace for other teams.” Indiana head coach Tom Crean said. “We couldn’t let them set the pace. It was an incredibly tough environment and I thought our team handled it well.”

The Hoosiers (21-3, 9-3 Big Ten) shot 53.1% from the field, the highest percentage a team has shot against the Buckeyes this season.

Cody Zeller scored 24 points and grabbed eight rebounds as the Hoosiers rebounded from their 74-72 loss to Illinois Thursday.

Ohio State (17-6, 7-4 Big Ten) has now lost two straight.

DeShaun Thomas led all scorers with 26 points in the loss.
