Both of these teams have already punched their tickets to the Big Dance, and will be playing for seeding. The Buckeyes have really tightened things up on the defensive end, as their last six opponents have been limited to 60 points or less, and have averaged just 53.8 points per game. That runs the total to 21 teams that the Buckeyes have kept to 60 or less. Michigan State, under Tom Izzo, has always been a defense-first team, and have held 21 teams to 61 or less this season. Look for a defensive battle here. The Spartans are 5-0 to the UNDER in their last five following an ATS loss, and the Buckeyes are 9-2 to the UNDER in their last 11 when following an ATS win. The UNER has prevailed in five of the last six meetings as well. Go with the UNDER.
