The No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes entered Saturday night’s Big Ten Championship as slight favorites against the No. 2 Indiana Hoosiers, but it was Indiana who emerged with a 13-10 victory, securing their first win over Ohio State since 1988 and capturing the Big Ten title in head coach Curt Cignetti’s second season.
