Luke Goode's 3-pointer late in overtime, part of his career-high 23-point night, gave Indiana the lead for good in a 77-76 win over Ohio State on Friday in Columbus, Ohio.
After four lead changes, Indiana forward Luke Goode capped off a career-night with the go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:07 left on the clock in overtime to help his team escape with a 77-76 win.
