OSU has gone UNDER its last four games, including 94-65 over The Citadel, which shot only 32.4 percent overall and 13-of-43 from three-point range. The Buckeyes have not given up more than 67 points their last five games and they are 20-8 UNDER their last 28 non-conference games. The Tarheels have stayed UNDER 11 of their last 16 against the Big 10 and four of their last five neutral site games. This game is being played in New Orleans. Play the UNDER.
