#11 seed Dayton had a remarkable run to get here, winning 10 of the last 12. But that run ends here as there are plenty of flaws with this team. Dayton had a nice winning stretch, but didn't exactly tear everybody up, winning by 3, 7, 2, 3, 7 and 5 points in half of those games. This is a Dayton squad that finished #8 in the Atlantic 10 in scoring, #7 in points allowed, #8 in field goal shooting and #9 in field goal shooting defense. They are not a good rebounding team nor do they defend the three-pointer well. They face an Ohio State team that is a senior-laden group that plays outstanding defense - tops in the Big 10. Ohio State started 15-0 this season, tearing up non-conference opponents. The Buckeyes have played 13 games vs. eight 2014 NCAA tournament teams during the course of the 2013-14 season. Ohio State is 8-5 vs. those teams and the Buckeyes have played in four consecutive NCAA Sweet 16s. Play Ohio State on the moneyline.
