COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio State continues its homestand on Sunday by hosting rival Michigan in the teams’ lone regular season meetings this year. Tip-off is set for 1 p.m. and the game will be televised nationally on CBS. Spero Dedes and Jim Spanarkle will call the action.

The game can also be heard on the Ohio State Radio Network from Learfield. Paul Keels and former Buckeye captain Ron Stokes are on the call.

• Sunday’s game will be the 192nd all-time meeting between the two schools. Officially, Ohio State leads the series 102-82 taking into account the vacated games.
• The teams have split the last 20 meetings (10-10) and Ohio State holds a just a 20-point edge (1,363-1,343) in combined points in those games.
• Last year, the teams split their regular season meetings with each winning on its home floor. The Buckeyes used a 16-0 second half run to take a brief lead but Michigan hit two clutch three-pointers and would pull out a 73-65 win in Ann Arbor. In the second meeting, the Buckeyes dominated from start to finish in an 84-61 victory on Senior Day at the Schott.
• The Buckeyes are currently No. 27 in the NET rankings and No. 28 in Kenpom.
• Ohio State is coming off one of its better shooting nights of the year as it rolled by visiting Washington 93-69 on Wednesday night. The Buckeyes were 11-of-18 from long range and finished the game 58.2 percent from the floor. The 24-point margin of victory was the largest in a Big Ten game in nearly three years.
• Micah Parrish, who is playing in his 160th career game on Sunday, has been great over the last month. He’s averaged a team-best 17.4 points per game over the last eight games and is shooting better than 50 percent from the floor. In his previous 4+ seasons, he scored 20 points in a game just three times. In the last seven games, he’s topped that mark three times, including a 30-point game last Sunday at Nebraska.
• Freshman John Mobley Jr. has made five three-pointers in back-to-back games and now leads the Big Ten with 63 three-pointers. He’s one of just 13 players in the country, and just one of three freshmen, to have made a three-pointer in every game this season.
• Aaron Bradshaw was 5-of-5 from the floor and a career-best 2-of-2 from long range in the win over Washington on Wednesday. He is starting to get back to form as he’s shot nearly 70 percent from the floor over the last six games.
• Michigan enters the game on a five-game win streak and finds itself alone at the top of the Big Ten standings at 11-2. Five Wolverines average in double figures, led by Vlad Goldin at 15.54 ppg. This will also the Roddy Gayle Jr.’s first game back in the Schottenstein Center since transferring this summer. He played in all 71 games the last two years for the Buckeyes.
