2016-2017 Ohio State Men's Basketball (Official Thread)

Eh they'll probably win at least one against Illinois and Minnesota. I'll go with a 2-3 start.

Maybe but they're both on the road so we'll see. They struggle against bums at home.

Well, the Illini just lost by 25 to Maryland

Really not surprising since the game was played at Maryland. Illinois is not a very good team this year (sort of like our Buckeyes) while Maryland is probably the class of the B1G. They also play a lot better at home than on the road and I mean a lot better..

The last time UConn had this many losses before January 1st, Tricky Dicky was in the White House. Today? They're trailing Houston 36-12 at halftime.

That home nail-biter win over the Huskies looks better all the time. At least we didn't lose, I guess.

They ended up losing 62-46

They are 5-7 on the year now......i'd be shocked if they finished .500 at this point, the American is pretty mediocre overall but I don't think anyone in there with the exception of maybe Tulane (3-9) is a sure win for them.

Seems crazy that there is such a long layoff for the team. Other schools in the BIG already played their first conference game.

Florida Atlantic dropped to 4-7 on the year last night with a 13 point loss to Florida Gulf Coast

Trying to put this in perspective Gardner Webb beats Nebraska who beats Indiana

So glad we've got Buckeye basketball to soothe the football wounds. Oh, wait...

 

[CFPBuckeye]

They're gonna start conference play 0-5, maybe 0-6.

Eh they'll probably win at least one against Illinois and Minnesota. I'll go with a 2-3 start.

1 down...

I used to be excited for B1G Basketball season. Now it's kinda just dread.

At least there's the positive vibe carrying over from a successful end to the football season.
