Going into Saturday’s Sweet 16 game between Ohio State and UConn, few people believed the Buckeyes would win. UConn entered the game as a 10.5-point betting favorite. A five-person panel of ESPN analysts unanimously picked the Huskies to win. Analysts from Sports Illustrated, The Athletic, DraftKings and Bleacher Report also expected a UConn victory, and the latter three even picked UConn to cover the spread.

Ohio State men's hockey saw its season come to an untimely end this weekend. After a dominant 8-1 win over No. 3 seed Harvard in the NCAA Tournament's first round on Friday, Ohio State could not muster the same offensive firepower in its matchup with No. 1 seed Quinnipiac on Sunday, resulting in a 4-1 loss for the Buckeyes in the quarterfinals.

Less than two months after transferring to Ohio State, Davison Igbinosun is "officially" a Buckeye. Igbinosun, a 6-foot, 203-pound cornerback who committed to Ohio State on Jan. 31 after one year at Ole Miss, shed his black stripe after the Buckeyes' fifth spring practice on Saturday. He is the third Buckeye to add scarlet to his helmet this week after offensive linemen Tegra Tshabola and George Fitzpatrick lost their black stripes on Thursday.

Ohio State has already hosted multiple key prospects on visits this spring.

Ohio State’s first scrimmage of the spring came down to the wire. With the defense leading 100-99 in the modified scoring system, the scrimmage was to be decided by whether the defense could keep the offense out of the end zone on the final drive. The defense came close, with Jaden McKenzie putting heavy pressure on Kyle McCord to force a 3rd-and-long throwaway, but Jelani Thurman kept the game alive for the offense by narrowly crossing the line-to-gain on a fourth-down catch-and-run. Two plays later, Dallan Hayden bounced off of multiple defenders to score the game-winning touchdown, giving the offense three points for a 102-100 final score.

When Ohio State and UConn battle at the NCAA Tournament this weekend, a trip to the Elite Eight will be on the line. That same line written above can be said for the other Sweet 16 matchups – just replace "Ohio State" and "UConn" with schools from the other seven games to be played at the NCAA Tournament on Saturday and Sunday.

Ohio State’s top two edge rushers are well-established entering 2023. With Zach Harrison and Javontae Jean-Baptiste out of the picture, JT Tuimoloau and Jack Sawyer will no longer be viewed as young upstarts as they enter their third year in the program. The pair of five-star talents have been given the reins at defensive end, and they’ll be expected to lead the unit and produce on the field accordingly.
