Second-to-last in the Big Ten, Ohio State became the lowest seed to make the league semifinals, defeating Wisconsin, Iowa and Michigan State along the way. The Buckeyes even had an eight-point lead over top-seeded and eventual Big Ten champion Purdue in the first half of last Saturday's semifinal matchup.
