( CBS Local )- The Big Ten has been college basketball’s best, and most difficult, conference this season and on Sunday, two of its best teams will meet on CBS. The No. 9 Iowa Hawkeyes make the trip to Columbus to face the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes as the end of the regular season nears. For the Buckeyes, they’re looking to break out of a brief slump suffering close losses against No. 3 Michigan (92-87) and unranked Michigan State (71-67) in their last two outings. Last Sunday’s game against Michigan was the most watched college basketball game of the season with good reason. Buckeyes guard Duane Washington poured in 30 points including five threes. Despite the loss, it’s clear the Buckeyes are one of the country’s, evidenced not only by their No. 4 ranking but also by the metrics.

The Patriots had eight players opt out of the season, more than any other team in the NFL. That included some pretty important members of the team like linebacker Dont’a Hightower, safety Patrick Chung, offensive lineman Marcus Cannon and running back/special teamer Brandon Bolden.
