Jake Melnick's is welcoming fans to watch the Ohio State-Michigan men's basketball game and is offering themed food and drink specials, the chance to win prizes and the opportunity to meet two Big Ten Network analysts: Former Ohio State (1989-92) and NBA Shooting Guard Jim Jackson and former University of Michigan (1980-84) and NBA standout Tim McCormick.

(Whatever you do, don't spit in Jackson's glass, he's bigger than you - MnB).

Jackson and McCormick will arrive at Jake's after filming the pre-game show at the Big Ten Network studio. The two will meet with fans and provide live game commentary. Jackson was the 1991 and 1992 Big Ten Player of the Year at Ohio State and McCormick was a standout center who, following his Michigan career, was a first-round draft pick in the 1984 NBA Draft.

Stick around following the game for the Big Ten Network's second contest of the night, as the Hoosiers travel to Evanston and take on the Wildcats.

All Big Ten fans are welcome.
