What channel is the Ohio State basketball game on? How to watch OSU-Maryland
Losers of five straight and eight of its last nine games, Ohio State concludes a two-game homestand Saturday afternoon against Maryland.
Most recently, Ohio State held an 18-point lead against Indiana on Tuesday night only to falter late and lose, 76-73, at Value City Arena. It marked the second time this season the Buckeyes lost after building an 18-point lead, and this defeat sent them to the basement of the Big Ten standings.
One day after a Jan. 27 loss at Northwestern, Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith voiced his public support for the remainder of the season for coach Chris Holtmann.
Maryland leads the all-time series 11-10 and is 9-6 against the Buckeyes since joining the Big Ten for the 2013-14 season. The two teams split the season series last year.
Ohio State is coached by Chris Holtmann, who is in his seventh season with the program. Maryland is led by Kevin Willard, who is in his second season with the Terrapins.

How have Ohio State and Maryland done so far this season?
Ohio State opened its season with a 79-73 win against Oakland at Value City Arena on Nov. 6. Afterward, Golden Grizzlies coach Greg Kampe called freshman guard Bruce Thornton "a man" for his play. The Buckeyes followed that with a 73-66 loss to No. 15 Texas A&M on Nov. 10 before beating Merrimack 76-52 on Nov. 15 and Western Michigan 73-56 on Nov. 19.
The Buckeyes then defeated No. 17 Alabama 92-81 on Nov. 24 and Santa Clara 86-56 to win the Emerald Coast Classic championship. They returned home and defeated Central Michigan, 88-61, on Nov. 29 and opened Big Ten play with an 84-74 win against Minnesota in their Big Ten opener before beating Miami (Ohio) three days later.
Penn State then handed Ohio State an 83-80 defeat on Dec. 9 before the Buckeyes bounced back with a win against UCLA to improve to 9-2. Ohio State then beat New Orleans one week later, took down West Virginia 78-75 in overtime on Dec. 30 in Cleveland and outlasted Rutgers 76-72 on Jan. 3 before the Jan. 6 loss at Indiana, Jan. 10 loss to Wisconsin and Jan. 15 loss at Michigan.
On Jan. 20, the Buckeyes took down Penn State, 79-67, behind a balanced scoring attack featuring four players in double figures. It's been the lone recent bright spot: Ohio State lost at Nebraska, 83-79 on Jan. 23, at Northwestern 83-58 on Jan. 27, at home against Illinois 87-75 on Jan. 30, 79-77 at Iowa on Feb. 1 and Tuesday against Indiana.
The loss to Iowa was Ohio State's 15th straight road defeat, and afterward Holtmann downplayed the notion that he's feeling pressure of coaching for his job.
Maryland is 13-10 overall and 5-7 in the Big Ten. Most recently, the Terrapins lost to Rutgers, 56-53 at home on Tuesday.
