IU beats second-ranked Ohio State 74-70

The IU men's basketball team pulled off another upset, this time it was a No. 2/2 Ohio State 74-70 at Assembly Hall.

After defeating then-No. 1 Kentucky Dec. 10, the win over the Buckeyes marked the first time in program history in which the Hoosiers have taken down the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the country.

IU was led by an offensive outburst by junior guard Jordan Hulls, who led all scorers with 17 points. Besides Hulls, every other IU starter finished the game in double-figures.

The Hoosiers held on to the lead without leading scorer freshman forward Cody Zeller, who fouled out with just under three minutes to go.

The win comes after a game in which the Hoosiers suffered an 80-65 loss at Michigan State to open up Big Ten play, which was the Hoosiers first loss of the season.

Now the Hoosiers will enter 2012 looking to earn their first spot in the top ten in the AP poll since 2008.
