  "account": "The Ohio State basketball team kicks off their 2026-2027 season on Monday, November 2nd, at 9 p.m. EST with a road game against No. 25 BYU. The matchup comes just an hour's drive from BYU's campus in Salt Lake City, Utah. This opening contest will serve as a crucial gauge of Ohio State's early-season performance, especially with several key players returning from last year.\n\nBruce Thornton, the four-year starter and all-time leading scorer, departed for the NBA, prompting Ohio State to rely on new talents like John Mobley Jr. and Amare Bynum. Meanwhile, BYU, off to a solid 2025-2026 season, replaces star players such as first overall pick AJ Dybantsa and second-round pick Richie Saunders.\n\nFans can catch the game broadcast on FS1. For those preferring online streaming options, fuboTV provides live coverage. Radio listeners can tune in to IMG Radio Network, with WBNS 97.1 The Fan serving as the flagship station. Commentary will be provided by Neil Sika (play-by-play) and Ron Stokes (analysis).\n\nFor additional coverage and updates on Ohio State basketball, follow the team on X (@BuckeyesWire) and like their Facebook page to stay informed.",
