Ohio State is cruising thus far and has 2 games this week, both of which are at home.

This week’s matchups:

Wednesday vs. Maryland Terrapins (5-2)

This game is part of the ‘Big Ten – ACC Challenge’. The unique thing about this game is that next year, Maryland will be in the Big Ten and therefore the Buckeyes could possibly be playing them twice a year.

The Terrapins average 74.3 points/game (175th), 39.9 rebounds/game (56th), 13.9 assists/game and shoot 45.9% from the field (123rd).

Top players:

Jake Laynman – 16.4 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 1.3 apg, 1.1 bpg

Evan Smotrycz – 13.7 ppg, 7.6 rpg, 2 apg

Dez Wells – 12.9 ppg, 5 rpg, 3.1 apg, 1.1 spg

Charles Mitchell – 9.6 ppg, 6.7 rpg, .3 apg

Nick Faust – 9.6 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 2.4

I predict that Ohio State will win this one, not only is Maryland a mediocre team, but the Buckeyes have the luxury of playing in their

Saturday vs. Centrai Connecticut State Blue Devis (1-5)

CCSU is not very good.

The Blue Devils average 71.2 points/game (228th), 34 rebounds/game (239th), 9.7 assists/game (331st), and shoot 40.7% from the field (304th).

Top players:

Kyle Vinales – 22 ppg, 1.2 rpg, 2.4 apg, 1.6 spg

Faronte Drakeford – 10.7 ppg, 6.3 rpg, .7 apg

Malcolm McMillan – 9.5 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 3.2 apg

Matt Hunter – 8.6 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 1.2 apg, 2.4 spg, 1.6 bpg

Khalen Cumberlander – 7.5 ppg, .8 rpg, .7 apg

I predict that the Buckeyes will blow out Centrail Connecticut State. The game will not be close before halftime.
