Chris Collins and his 15-4 (4-2) Northwestern Wildcats squad are on the road today in Columbus in pursuit of a huge road win over Coach Thad Matta and his 12-7 (2-4) Ohio State Buckeyes. The Wildcats will be looking to avenge a 71-63 loss in this same matchup last season, and will more importantly be intent on securing a victory that would move them into a tie for third place in the Big Ten standings. Ohio State comes into the game off two close wins against Michigan State and Nebraska, having started conference play losing their first four.
