I'd be more pissed at this team, but after watching the refs drop an enormous load in their pants, I just started laughing. What's the point of getting so upset?

Yeah even if they get that call it's unlikely they win anyways but still there has to be a punishment system in place for people who blow obvious calls. Hell I'd put a pinishment system in place for taking 5 mins to make an obvious call correct.

Schizophrenic team. I stand by what I said earlier this week. If we lose to this scUM team, we have no business in the tournament. Shame to waste a talent like Russell on such a "meh" season.

Agreed. The bubble is so soft these days with 68 teams, OSU will still get in absent a collapse (i.e., only winning 1 of the next 4 games), but Russell is getting very little help from the three seniors on the team, and I think he (Russell) is wearing down a bit (he's shot 6-15, 4-13 and 4-13 from the field in his last three games).

I was going to post this about scheduling in the B1G thread earlier this week but the scheduling really sucked this past week. I do not understand why a conference with an even number of teams cannot straighten out the scheduling. I mean 8 days between games this late in the season is just stupid. I am not blaming the scheduling for the loss because as I mentioned I thought about this earlier in the week but I do not think it helped us in the first half. We just played a very poor game and the seniors played terrible.

there are 5 seniors on this team. Thompson, Scott, Williams, McDonald, and Lee but I agree none of them are contributing.

I think McDonald is a junior but yes the point stands. Thompson is good for a dunk or 2 and generally good consistant defense but his offense is inconsistant. Scott should be much better on D with his quickness but he was getting abused off the dribble at times today by Albreckt.His passing is good when he's not going too fast but O inconistant. Amir is inconsistent at everything except his hands which are generally not good. McDonald is ok but lacks the atheleticism to stay with the quicker bigs or guard the pick and roll. Lee looked to be getting better before the grion injury but was a little undersized and didn't have enough stregth to play with the larger bigs.

He is a Senior.besides that I pretty much agree with what you have said but Scott is supposed to help us on defense and he left guys today for wide-open threes and he certainly did not help us offensively. I just wish he would pass the ball rather than shoot it. The only thing that Thompson can do offensively is dunk the ball and Williams is Williams. I think he left his game in high school. The seniors on this team are just offensively atrocious.

Don't know what Loving did that got him suspended but I say he needs to go back to doing it. He's been shooting awful since his return. Who feeds the commentators the notes on the players prior to the game? Could they please update K Williams'...he's shooting 25% from 3 in conference play. They always talk his shooting up when he checks in and then he proceeds to clank a few open 3's off the rim. Hope next year's class can fill in well around Tate and KBD. They're the two returners for next season that I have any confidence right now.
