Led by 31 points from Taylor Mikesell, the Buckeyes pulled off another comeback win, this time beating Illinois 87-81.

— looked to be a tall task for Ohio State.

"We’ve proven time and time again that when we play the right way and really stick to our identity, good things happen," McGuff said."We just haven’t been doing it for long enough stretches of late." "In the first half especially, they were playing harder, executing better, doing a really good job," McGuff said."We were not playing hard or executing. They were making us pay."

McMahon took the message to heart and immediately went on a solo 7-0 run, driving to the basket on all three shots and drawing an and-one on the first one. Prior to the timeout, the Buckeyes had missed three consecutive shots, all of them from beyond the perimeter.
