Maryland vs Ohio State Prediction

It’s been a tough year for the Ohio State Buckeyes. After losing stars EJ Liddell and Malaki Branham to the NBA last summer, the young Buckeyes have struggled in 2022-23 -- suffering their worst season since current head coach Chris Holtmann took over in 2017.

The Buckeyes will miss the NCAA tournament for the first time since the 2015-16 season and the first time under Holtmann. While they haven’t made a deep run in the tournament for a few years, getting there hadn’t been an issue. This year, with at least three freshman starters in the lineup, the Buckeyes are focused on rebuilding. They have a strong recruiting class lined up, and the experience gained this season will serve the current players well as they move forward.

On the flipside, the Maryland Terrapins (20-9 overall) are tied with Northwestern and Indiana for second place in the Big Ten Conference behind Purdue. Maryland’s last two wins have lifted them above both Northwestern and Indiana in the actual Big Ten tournament seedings, and the Terrapins also project as a high-end seed for March Madness.

With just two games left in the regular season, here are some NCAAB free picks and parlays for the Maryland vs Ohio State game.

Total Points

This is a tough matchup for a young Ohio State team. The Buckeyes have struggled with consistent scoring this season, and while they’ve scored 70-plus points in three of their last four, they’re also capable of a 55-point night against a strong team -- as was the case against Purdue in mid-February.

Maryland boasts one of the country's best defensive teams, and they held Purdue to 54 points just three days before the Boilermakers dropped 82 on the Buckeyes. All these points make it really tempting to back the under, but Maryland has really struggled on the road this season.

The Terrapins are a 16-1 juggernaut at home but have slumped to a highly disappointing 2-7 on the road. With Ohio State finding some rhythm and growing in confidence as a young team, the Buckeyes will have a point to prove before the curtain closes on their 2022-23 season. These two teams combined for 153 points earlier this season, and with Maryland struggling on the road, I’m backing the over.

Leg 1 SGP Pick: Over 136.5 Points (-115)

Moneyline

Ohio State is unsettled, and with just two games left on the schedule, the Buckeyes will be looking to build a little momentum to carry into next season. Their young core has a lot of promise, and Brice Sensabaugh is showing that he’s one of the best – if not the best -- freshmen in the Big Ten this season.

Sensabaugh leads the Buckeyes in scoring with 16.5 PPG, 5.2 rebounds and a 42 percent 3-point percentage. Ohio State can continue to build around him and freshman guard Bruce Thornton, who led the Buckeyes to a win over Illinois last time out. Thornton had 20 points, five rebounds and two assists in the win and now has 39 points in his last two games combined.

The Buckeyes have found some scoring in recent games, and while I respect Maryland's defense, Ohio State was able to put up 72 points against the Terrapins in a high-scoring game earlier this season. This is no easy road trip to finish off the season for Maryland, especially considering its form away from the Xfinity Center.

This time around, the Buckeyes come into the game with a little more experience. They will need to contain Jahmir Young, however. Young has been a standout for the Terrapins since transferring prior to the season. The hometown guard leads the team with an average 16.2 PPG and stood out against Northwestern in the Terps’ last game.

This is a fun matchup with interesting storylines surrounding the talent on both sides. The Buckeyes are young, but it's easy to get excited about where they might be headed. Maryland, meanwhile, has a shot at pushing for a Sweet 16 spot in the NCAA tournament. For the night, I’m taking Ohio State to win at home as the underdog in an entertaining game.
