The Ohio State Buckeyes had one heck of a scare on Thursday in the opening-round game over Minnesota, but they hung on to win 79-75 and advance to the Big Ten quarterfinals on Friday.

Minnesota cut the deficit to one point in the closing seconds, but the Buckeyes hit critical free throws late to hang on for a victory.

Brendan Gulick checked in live from Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis after Ohio State earned the big win.
