Ohio St. roots for Michigan vs. Indiana For the first time since he committed to Michigan - archrival of longtime friend Jared Sullinger's Ohio State team - he saw the words in print from Sullinger's Twitter account: "Go Blue." Ohio State's former center - now in the NBA but born to hate the Wolverines - offering public support for That School Up North. To join them at 13-5, the Buckeyes would need only to beat Illinois and Michigan State could make it a four-way tie later in the day with a win over Northwestern. Sullinger and Burke grew up together, played AAU and high school basketball together before college, where they played last season on opposite sides. Michigan squeaked out the victory in State College, flew home and watched the final minutes - including Ohio State wing William Buford's game-winning shot - in the Davidson Player Development Center in Ann Arbor. Ohio State's victory set off a crazy scene in the video room as the team celebrated Michigan's first Big Ten title since 1986, shared with OSU and MSU.
