Should Ohio State basketball be viewed as an underdog team?

On this Monday Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means and Doug Lesmerises use Ohio State's last-second loss at Purdue on Sunday to try to put the basketball Buckeyes in context this season. And Nathan Baird, a former Purdue basketball beat writer, joins for a bit to help use the Boilermakers to put the Buckeyes in context. Also covered:

Is Ohio State or Purdue the better team, and better program, right now?

Eugene Brown III played maybe his best game Sunday -- is he showing signs of making a leap?

Why doesn't Ohio State have more big guys?

Both E.J. Liddell and Malachi Branham showed again they're big-time scorers down the stretch.

And finally, should Ohio State be viewed as an underdog program right now?
