Two of the Big Ten's four Sweet 16 teams tip off tonight in their drive for a national basketball championship. First, it's Ohio State vs. Arizona at 7:47 p.m. ET ( preview | scoreboard | BTN Connect), and then it's Indiana vs. Syracuse at 9:45 p.m. ET ( preview | scoreboard | BTN Connect).
Earlier this week, BTN.com's Tom Dienhart looked at all four games involving Big Ten teams, and then he asked "Could all four Big Ten teams make the Final Four?" In their preview of Thursday's games, the Big Ten Geeks crunched the numbers and the results suggest Indiana and Ohio State victories. Read how this conclusion was reached here.
