No. 4 UConn takes on No. 17 Ohio State on Thursday, Nov. 12 at 6:30 p.m. ET from Value City Arena in Columbus.
UConn heads to Columbus looking to bounce back after its first loss of the season, a 77-66 setback at Michigan on Nov. 5. A week later the Huskies are on the road again against another Big Ten opponent, this time a surging Ohio State team that has blown out all three of its home opponents by at least 34 points. That home dominance means the Buckeyes have not really been tested yet, and a top-five visitor changes that in a hurry.
The matchup tips off Thursday, Nov. 12 at 6:30 p.m. ET from Value City Arena, with national coverage on the FOX networks and streaming on FOX One.
UConn's attack centers on Sarah Strong, who is averaging 23.7 points per game on 54.9 percent shooting from the field. She has connected on nine of 20 three-point attempts this season and has committed only four turnovers, a combination that makes her both the Huskies' top scorer and one of their most careful ball handlers.
With UConn ranked No. 4 and Ohio State checking in at No. 17, this is as much a measuring-stick game for the Buckeyes as it is a chance for the Huskies to reset after their first loss.
