This was the 2nd loss of the season for Kentucky and the very first given that a Dec. 3 loss to Clemson.
Bruce Thornton was the star of the day for Ohio State as he scored 30 points with 4 rebounds and 3 helps. John Mobley Jr. had 15 points with 3 rebounds, 3 helps and 2 takes while Aaron Bradshaw had 11 points with 2 rebounds and 2 takes off of the bench.
