I think kind of better to lose this one now. Get refocused as you head through the rest of the league.
Yeah, it's always good to lose a game to your most hated rival in the league or outside the league. I think your girlfriend is a mess with your head:crazy:

Let's not forget the women:)

After a victory over Northwestern on Thursday they follow up with a win at Michigan State

Tayler Hill and Samantha Prahalis each drained clutch jump shots in the final minutes to help Ohio State defeat Big Ten rival Michigan State 64-56 today in front of 14,181 fans in the Breslin Center.

The 11th-ranked Buckeyes (17-1, 4-1) survived a late charge by the Spartans (12-5, 4-1) because of their two veteran guards delivered. Hill came out of a timeout with OSU ahead 54-51 with 5:19 to play and drained a three-point jumper. The basket and two free throws by Darryce Moore momentarily blunted the roar of the crowd.

Nebraska game preview

? Records: Nebraska 15-2, 4-1 Big Ten; Ohio State 17-1, 4-1

? Matchup to watch: OSU?s Amber Stokes generally draws the defensive assignment on the opponent?s point guard. Against Nebraska, she will take the first shot at slowing junior Lindsey Moore, who is among the conference leaders in scoring and assists.

? Notable: The 20th-ranked Cornhuskers? nine-game winning streak ended Sunday in a 93-73 home loss to Penn State. The Nittany Lions limited leading scorer Jordan Hooper, a three-time Big Ten Player of the Week this season, to 13 points. ? Nebraska freshman Emily Cady is averaging 12.1 points over the past nine games. ? The 10th-ranked Buckeyes won 64-56 at Michigan State on Sunday, and Stokes contributed 10 points, six rebounds and five assists. ? OSU guard Tayler Hill leads the Big Ten in scoring with a 21.4-point average.

? Next: vs. Illinois, 2 p.m. Sunday at Value City Arena

Nebraska game

Film might not have done justice to the speed of the guards on the Ohio State women?s basketball team.

After Nebraska coach Connie Yori pored over the statistics of an 82-68 Big Ten loss to the Buckeyes last night at Value City Arena, she ticked off the names of Samantha Prahalis, Tayler Hill and Amber Stokes like a gavel-dropping auctioneer saying going, going, gone.

?I?m involved with the USA Basketball committee so I have had a chance to watch (Hill and Prahalis) in person,? Yori said. ?For me, I knew what I was expecting. But I?m not sure our kids knew the quickness level that was going to be on the floor today.

?It?s hard to simulate. We have scout guys that come in, but they probably didn?t simulate what Sammy can do. It?s the same with the speed of Stokes or Tayler?s overall ability. I don?t want to rip on our scout team, but they weren?t as good as these guys were tonight.?

The three combined for 52 points, 14 assists, 17 rebounds and eight steals, while triggering a offense that built a 20-2 advantage in fast-break points for 10th-ranked Ohio State (18-1, 5-1).

Hill matched her season?s average with 21 points and her career highs with 10 rebounds and six steals.
