Mine just went through. At first I was confused as to who MM was, then it hit me. Glad it's taken care of!

Fuck M*ch*gan. Pricks

Well considering after the beat down at home vs Michigan and then again at Iowa things were looking bleak just to get a tournament bid things have really turned around. From likely not making the tournament to firmly in and not even in Dayton is a pretty great last 3 weeks.

The end of the 1st half was a net negative 4 pts came back to haunt.

ttun as always a bunch of arrogant bitches

Ohio State remained at 26 in the KenPom ratings after today's game. The net rating went up a bit, but still 1 spot behind Iowa, who we just beat. We will see where we end up after all the games have been played.

It was interesting to hear the BTN / Fox Sports crew harp on Ohio State finally moving up to be a #9 seed. That's not how we at ESPN, your worldwide leader in sports, would treat a similarly situated SEC team. We'd have moved them up to a #5 seed.

Probably should have tried more perimeter shots instead of challenging Mara again and again toward the end. Nice effort, though, by the Buckeyes.

These games come at you fast day after day after day to even let these wins and losses sink in but this one going to hurt until Selection Sunday.

I think Ohio State will be in the dreaded 8/9 game if you win that 1st round game it will mean a 2nd round game vs one of Duke, Arizona or Florida (since they can't play Michigan in the 2nd round)

Hoping for Duke. Starting PG is out, starting C was wearing a walking boot yesterday. That being said, they have to win the 8-9 first.

Also good to see the refs still let the perceived "moral physical team" get away with anything.

That uncalled blatant shove to the back on Tilly in the final minutes was a complete joke.

Man that one stings. Showed they could be right there with a really really good team (#1 Seed) but just couldn’t get the key shots to drop. It’s still a lot of little things this team doesn’t do right on a consistent basis. But they fought.

Pissed it was vs. That Team but otherwise no disappointment with this week. Let’s get dancing.

If it was another team, it would be whatever, but it really sucks that we let this team off the hook

I think Ohio State will be in the dreaded 8/9 game if you win that 1st round game it will mean a 2nd round game vs one of Duke, Arizona or Florida (since they can't play Michigan in the 2nd round)

Mara killed them. Ohio State makes half of those missed layups and they win comfortably.

Heck of an effort but damn so many missed chances in the final 4 mins. Had the lead by 2 and it all started with a missed FT.

If Mobley could have connected on that 3 ball up 1 with that foul on the screen of Tilly's would have led by 5 instead of 2.

A couple missed layups at the end doomed us.

A win could have pushed Ohio State to a 7 seed now I fear Ohio State will be an 8 or 9 seed.

Well that means if they win the 1st round they will play vs one of Duke, Arizona or Florida.

Fuck michigan

The team showed that they can play with anybody.

How about a turnover for them and a walk off 3 ball ?

That missed Royal FT was brutal would been down 3 then we took way too much time to get that basket.

Had to have that FT

And why didn't Ohio State try to rebound that FT miss? It was a weird miss and Bynum could have totally gotten that ball and maybe a quick put back.
