OSU's big man platoon of Tilly and Njegovan are 0-10 from the field (all good chances) while Wisconsin is up by 10. If there's one position that's costing OSU this game, it's the post position.
Thats just an example of what happens every game honestly. Not just Tilly. They all do shit like this. Knock rebounds away from each other that roll right to an opponent for an open 3. It's maddening
Happens too often with this team. Teams shoot like crap the game before, only to shoot like this. MSU sucked vs Michigan but will shoot 65% when we play them. If a team in the top half of this conference loses a game before they play us, I always count in a loss. Just how it’s been for what seems like forever
Yeah, defense is not a strength for this program, and it hasn't been for a while. I think part of the problem is they target offensive skillset in recruiting and just think they will be able to coach them up on D. The reality is you should prioritize getting guys who have elite quickness and strength just as much as their offensive kit. I think OSU's coaches have this kind of "pro mentality" where they want to to build teams with NBA-style offenses, but it doesn't really work at OSU because you aren't at the program where you're going to have a bunch of future NBA players and need guys who can guard to win.
Mobley, Chatman, and Thornton are the only 3 that should be allowed to shoot behind the arc. This team takes some many I’ll-advised shots, it’s sickening!

If I told you before the game Thornton would have 7, Mobley 5, Royal 4 and Tilly 0 (on 0-6 shooting) & Wisconsin scored 49 the first half, you'd probably take a 6-point halftime deficit with that info. Chatman and Bynum keeping the offense afloat, but gotta find some answers defensively.
Another game that can go either way. After watching other teams at the top of this league play, the biggest difference is the passing/dribbling this team seems to do vs those other teams. Every player seems to still head fake or dribble too long before passing. Chatman and Mobley the only two who seem to just go for it. Bynum is starting to get there. This team needs to think of the next pass when the ball is coming their way. Nebraska and Michigan whip the ball around so fast it makes it hard to guard. Wisky doing the same today. We tend to dribble too long and too far in the zone only to throw a bad pass or set up for a terrible shot.
