After losing three of their last four games, the Buckeyes will skid into the conference tournament as the No. 6 seed. COLUMBUS, Ohio — DeVante’ Jones scored 21 points and Michigan rallied in the second half, wrapping up its up-and-down Big Ten regular season by beating No. 23 Ohio State 75-69 Sunday. Fill-in coach Phil Martelli guided the Wolverines (17-13, 11-9) as coach Juwan Howard finished out his five-game suspension for hitting a Wisconsin assistant in a postgame handshake line. Howard is expected back on the sidelines when the Big Ten conference begins this week. E.J. Liddell recorded his eighth double-double with 16 points and 13 rebounds for Ohio State (19-10, 12-8), which lost for the third time in four games. Full seedings for the conference tourney are still to be determined, but both teams are guaranteed a bye to the second round. RELATED: More OSU coverage from WKYC Trailing…
