The NCAA basketball tournament is a big deal when March rolls around, but it’s never too early to try to look into the crystal ball to see what might transpire the next time all the March Madness hits a television screen or streaming device near you.
One of the best bracketologists out there is ESPN’s Joe Lunardi. In some ways, he was the pace car for all of the bracket projections, and he’s already up to his shenanigans of looking ahead in a way-too-early effort on what we might see when the brackets are released in the fall of 2027. We are, of course, mostly interested in where Ohio State lands, and we think you probably are too.

It must be noted that it’s awfully tough to try and figure all of this out at this point without a game even being played, but it’s still fun to talk about. The Ohio State basketball team will look very different from the one we saw last year, but some good pieces could come together to surprise some folks.
So where does Lunardi have the Buckeyes? He has them just off the bubble and in the field as a No. 9 seed and in the West Region facing No. 8 seed Missouri.
