#2 The Ohio State University @ Minnesota, Sunday, Dec 15 @ 6:30 PM, BTN

[OhioState001]

Not sure what Ahrens future is on this team. Came in and did literally nothing after not playing much all year in meaningful games

Just not our night. It happens. We'll bounce back

seems like in every season in every sport, you have at least one night where you can do no right and the opponent can do wrong. basktball, especially, is ripe for the fubars.

Totally forgot about Young. Did he get hurt?

 

[Buck I in Mich]

This game is over. Might as well get Gaffney in there and see how he competes with these guys.

good idea

They aren't losing because of the refs, but this is still very one-sided.

he's receiving no attention on the bench. coach seems to be using the blowout as an opportunity, especially since young is not an offensive generator.

Dude literally throws a shoulder into Walker but nah, Walker is the one who committed a foul.

Every bounce. Every call. Not going our way

In our 3 blow out wins against decent comp we had a LOT of things go our way. I kind of figured we were due for a game where things favored the other team, I figured it might be this game, and that almost felt confirmed by Duane's random rib injury keeping him out and figuring Minny's guards bouncing back at home vs. a ranked team when they were impossibly bad in the game prior. But I was hoping things wouldn't go THIS far the other way.

And the home B1G advantage in these December conference games has been a thing of absurdity.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

if the final buzzer sounds with osu down by single digits, i'll call it a moral victory. so far this season, osu has been a great closing team.

 

[ShowMeBuck]

Just finish strong and make it interesting fellas.

This the Carr I pictured for Minny in the preseason. I dunno why he had to wait until precisely this game to play like this, but c'est la vie.

 

[DZ83CK]

Gophers trying to flop for foul calls. Isn't that supposed to be called now?

 

[Jake]

Only have one player in double figures (11) with 4 minutes left. Check that, two players. Carton has 16.

It's Minnesota, man. They play like trash half the time and give their best once every few home games.
