Ohio State students wear Penn State shirts at basketball game (Photo)

You don’t see this every day.

After a loss to Michigan State over the weekend, Ohio State needs help from Penn State in order to sneak into the Big Ten title game, so OSU students showed support for the Nittany Lions at Tuesday night’s basketball game in Columbus.

According to Cleveland.com’s Bill Landis, the front row of the student section wore shirts that spelled out “We Are Penn State” at OSU’s game against Louisiana Tech.

If Penn State upsets No. 5 Michigan State in East Lansing and the No. 8 Buckeyes knock off No. 10 Michigan, the Buckeyes will face Iowa in the Big Ten title game. That would also open up the chance for OSU to creep back into College Football Playoff contention, so Buckeyes fans will have a close eye on Penn State's play on Saturday afternoon.

The Nittany Lions (7-4) haven’t beat Michigan State in East Lansing since 2009.
