It's Déjà vu - OSU vs Purdue.  Last week the Ohio State Women battled Purdue for the Big Ten Championship.  Sunday the men will attempt to do the same against the Boilermakers.  Ohio State knocked off #1 seed Michigan State Saturday afternoon to earn their way to the championship game.

Tickets ($45 & $75) are still available at Ticketmaster.com and most street corners around the Fieldhouse.  Street prices were going for about $5-25 over face value.  If you can't make it downtown the game will be on WISH-TV (CBS) at 3:30 p.m.

Men's Pep Rally
Make your way downtown before the game for the pre-game prep rally.  It starts at 1:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. in the Ober Parking Lot (adjacent to Conseco Fieldhouse).  Men's basketball fans are invited to come downtown early and prepare for the championship game. Don't miss the local entertainment, band and cheerleader performances, complimentary popcorn, face painting and autograph sessions.

A big thanks to everyone who attended Saturday's pep-rally at Champps downtown. We had a surprise appearace by Eddie George who signed autographs and took photos with the Buckeye faithful. $212 was raised from the 50/50 raffle for the scholarship fund. Photos from Saturday's event will be posted in the photo gallery.
