No. 4 Ohio State vs. Rhode Island
Tipoff: 5 p.m., Mohegan Sun Arena, Uncasville, Conn.
Notable: This game is one semifinal in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off Classic. After OSU's scheduled Nov. 9 opener against Marquette aboard the USS Yorktown in South Carolina was canceled because of court condensation, the Buckeyes looked a little rusty early in Sunday's 82-60 win over Albany. Despite the slow start, the Buckeyes shot 57.1 percent. Aaron Craft scored a career-high 20 points with seven assists, while preseason All-American Deshaun Thomas scored 19. Rhode Island has shot 31.3 percent while losing its first two games under first-year coach Dan Hurley. The Rams missed all but one of their 21 3-point attempts during Monday's 69-50 loss at Virginia Tech. Forward Nikola Malesevic and guard Xavier Munford are averaging 16.0 points each for the Rams, who have lost 23 straight games against top 25 opponents dating to a 70-63 victory over No. 21 Utah on Dec. 2, 1998.
