This team is humming. Peaking at the right time? How awesome would that be!

Congrats Bruce, on one hell of a Buckeye career!

We're definitely peaking at the right time, defense has got much better and less stupid fouls/turnovers it seems. I think the players know their roles and are settled into them. Hope we get a crack in the Tourney, we could be a dangerous team (albeit depth is a big issue if we get into foul trouble).

Bruce tied Shannon Scott for 3rd all time in assists i believe as well...

Bruce's stat line in the IU game looks like a man against boys: 25 points on only 9 shots, 7 assists & 0 turnovers, 3 boards and 2 steals. Professional.

He's so consistent that I'm legitimately shocked when he misses a shot

Purdue will be the #7 seed in the Big Ten tournament that is crazy

Well NW blew it lost by 1 at Minnesota hope they stick in the top 75 NET (were 69 coming in)

Was up 1 and missed front end gave up a basket and missed at the buzzer

The bracket guy I follow here is what his first 5 out did today

69) Virginia Tech lost
70) New Mexico lost
71) Auburn lost
72) Cincinnati lost
73) California lost

Looks like it will be #8 seed. Not sure who will be the 9/16 at this moment.

After going in dry on Indy, we're in no matter what happens in Chicago. Still, the way this team has been rolling, I'd love to see a good run.

Right now Joey Brackets has OSU at a #9 seed. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad OSU is going to make it, but a #9 seed is a buzzkill. There are only going to be heavyweights at the #1 seed line this year. Would rather have a #10 or even #11 seed and have a more plausible chance at making the Sweet 16.

OSU finishes with 12 regular-season conference wins, most since 2021-22 (also 12). Remarkably, this is the first time OSU has finished the regular season with 20+ wins since the 2019-20 season. Other teams have gotten there since, but partly due to postseason victories. The last time OSU had BOTH 20+ regular-season wins AND 12+ regular-season conference wins in the same year was the 2017-18 season. Progress!

Lost game 2 19-6 guess they scored some runs at least

7-1 USA

Boys finally woke up. Schwarber with a upper deck bomb and then Judge just murdered the LF scoreboard

This dude is so good already. I love the way he rebounds and attacks the rim. He has an aggressiveness and violence to his game that the program has been lacking for a while now.

He's so much fun to watch.

It's going to be a hell of a challenge to only pick five guys for the B1G all-conference first team this season. I would like to think that Bruce will be chosen, as he certainly deserves it; however, there are 5+ others that also deserve it. Bennett Stirtz, Keaton Wagler, Jeremy Fears, Yaxel Lendeborg and Braden Smith all deserve it, too. What is going to be the tie-breaker in one of those guys not making it? I can see voters not putting Wagler on the first team since he is a freshman, and most of those other guys aren't going to have another chance to make it - that's not a great reason for Wagler to not be chosen, but I can see it playing out that way.

Props to Dennis Hopson for coming to the game to pass the torch as the all-time leading scorer. Class act.

Big win. Will be nice to be back in the madness.
