I don't think I've ever been quite so uncertain about how good a Buckeye team really is as we enter "real-season" play. I feel pretty confident we're truly top-15, but beyond that I am not sure.

Tonight will be a good test, that's for sure. Duke is outstanding this year.

Dammit here we go agreeing again.

I don't think Ohio State is truly ready for this game yet. I really wish that Marquette game could have occurred.

If DT goes off, anything is possible, but I think that atmosphere and the still developing game in the center of the lane with Williams and Ravenel aren't going to fare well against Plumlee....

Ohio State always has a chance to win it, but Craft, Scott and DT are all going to have good games and the bigs on this team are going to have to hold their own.

This is my concern as well.

Wisconsin is letting one guy dominate them, Harris. That bodes very well for D-Train going for about 40 when we play them. :tongue2:

Other surprising note is that Purdue is blasting Clemson on the road. Nice for the BiG


This challenge is pretty much in the bag

A rare opportunity for Bucky to be something more than worthless bastards and they fuck it up at home. :roll1:

Virginia beats them, 60-54.

We must pound the piss out of them this year.

Me too. I'm glad we're playing this game, no matter how it turns out. This team needs a measuring stick to see where they are at this point, and what they need to improve going forward. Can't get a gauge on that against UMKC.

Great job Badgers. Sparty bringing the dead weight too.

We need to win this damn thing this season and next. In 2014 the B1G will bring in Rutgers and Maryland to counter Syracuse, Pitt, and Louisville. That'll work out well. :lol:

Three losses to this point, Sparty trails Miami by 9 and we're playing at Cameron. Is PoSU a sure thing?

Still seems up in the air to me at the moment.

Michigan state looks flat. I wouldn't say it's in the bag yet.

MSU has looked flat the last few games but they didn't have Harris or Trice then. Not sure what's wrong with them now. Although I guess that's a typical Izzo team at this point in the season.

They're defense just looks horrid. They're offense is just doing the same thing over and over without any luck.I can't see them catching up to possibly win unless someone gets hot.

I have a feeling we are going to have a really difficult time scoring the ball tonight.

I think DeShaun will get his, but in high volume. Think we are going to struggle with our first real test of the year against a good team in a very difficult environment.

If it were at home, maybe I'd feel differently, but I think the high pressure defense Duke will play that we have not seen yet this year, will cause havoc trying to get good shots.

Obviously, I hope I am 150% wrong.
