Tuesdays are for Mid-American Conference basketball. Ohio will travel just shy of 400 miles north to Mount Pleasant, Michigan to face MAC West opponent Central Michigan. Ohio is coming off its biggest win of the season against Buffalo, and the Chippewas have struggled to put it together this season. Tuesday might get Ohio a fourth notch in its win streak.
