Michigan basketball will travel to Ohio State Saturday and here’s how to watch and stream, as well as odds for the second matchup this season.

Michigan basketball isn’t going to win the Big Ten regular-season championship or earn a top-four seed at the tournament. But one thing the Wolverines can do is avoid a sweep at the hands of Ohio State.

Following a loss to Wisconsin Thursday, Michigan basketball will be back in action Sunday in Columbus for a critical matchup against Ohio State, which also comes in with a 9-8 record. The Buckeyes are the No. 23 team in the AP poll, while the Wolverines are 19th.

Both teams are solidly in the NCAA tournament, so there won’t be any drama there. However, after climbing back up to fifth in bracket projections following seven wins in eight games, the last thing Michigan wants to do is lose back-to-back games.

The biggest question going into Sunday’s game is whether or not Eli Brooks will be back. He broke his nose last Saturday in a win over Purdue and wasn’t able to play against Wisconsin Thursday and that was costly for the Wolverines, who struggled on both ends of the floor without their normal shooting guard.

The game is going to tip later than normal for a Sunday afternoon game and that could give Brooks a better chance to play. Either way, the Wolverines have to find a better way to play without him, possibly even by starting David DeJulius if Brooks can’t go.

A win would give Michigan basketball an eighth quadrant-1 win, which out of a 20 total, would be rather impressive. That and the rivalry between the Wolverines and Buckeyes.

With that in mind, here’s all the key info you need for Saturday’s showdown.
