BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — It's a loud one in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall as the Hoosiers welcome in Ohio State on Saturday night. Indiana forward Trayce Jackson-Davis gets an early dunk to give the Hoosiers an early three-point lead.

With just under 13 minutes left in the half, Jackson-Davis started at the top of the key, made his way through the lane around a man-to-man defense before throwing down a dunk on the left side of the hoop.

As of the middle of the first half, freshman forward Jalen Hood-Schifino is leading all scorers with 14 points on a perfect game thus far.
