The second half is showing what OSU is lacking right now: depth. The team has looked tired most of the 2nd half. They are a half-step slow closing out on shooters, our shots are coming up short, and we just don't have the big men to rebound with these guys right now.

BUT!!!! We are playing against a very good team, in a very hostile environment, without one of our best players, and we cannot buy a call.... and we are STILL within 10 points of UNC.

Play this game with decent officiating in March......

Yeah, good luck finding decent officiating against these guys ANYTIME. Especially if that tournament game is a "neutral site" game in Greensboro or Charlotte or Raleigh.

The officiating in this game is a fucking travesty. I mean, the refs didn't even try to hide the fact that they came out from the beginning to do everything in their power to insure a UNC victory. I feel sick watching this. If I were a UNC fan, I would feel even worse.

Patience JCOSU..... We might get another shot at them before this year is done....I think there is a lot to be happy about this in this game... Just seeing Matta smile and walk off the court tells me he is thinking the same thing....

We don't need UNC at home to beat them... We can beat them there, here, or nuetral.

Agreed. Strictly looking at OSU, I'm very pleased the way they competed and didn't give up when UNC made the runs at the end of the game. If OSU had any kind of inside presence on offense this could have been a different game.

Bring on Valpo!!!

:oh:

Hopefully we can get the Schott rockin like the Dean Dome was. Say what you will about their Overrated chant, but THAT was a basketball environment.

Left about 13 points on the floor, but regardless, Ohio State played well enough to know that this team is legit. This game.. Florida... they'll be huge for the Bucks come March.
