Blame the refs if you like...our Buckeyes just got whupped for 20 minutes.

22 fucking points? :shake:

Turn the tables in the second half or the season ends.

I don't know if anyone can seriously blame the officials for the current score, but the officials are having almost as bad of a game as the Buckeyes. The refs are not the reason OSU is losing though..

I feel ok. Thomas was starting to play angry and I like that. Scott needs to not shot the long range jumper. We haven't gotten a shot for Thompson yet, we need to. Craft needs to not settle for the jumpers. Just stop settling guys. And intensity on D

that first half was determined before the ball was tipped. poor preparation. poor focus. poor execution.

what we saw was a team that thought that today's game would be a walk.

Yeah - they really reminded me of Indiana vs. Syracuse given the zone and all that.....

Like really. Down to the complete lack of rebounding.

If this were a game against Louisville, we would be down by 25 and the game would be over already....

Pathetic showing by a supposedly superior team.

Only 25? It'd be more like 50 because Pitino's players would be going to the rack every time down the floor.

EASILY one of the WORST half's of play that I have ever seen the BUCKS play. This isn't WS playing well. This is tOSU playing flat, undisciplined and unmotivated ball. Unwise decisions on both sides of the ball. Add to this they can't buy a shot and the refs called at least 3, maybe 4 phantom fouls and we have what we have.

With that being said, IF we can get it together 13 pts is not too far of margin to come back from. But we have to get something going on Offense and start playing smart, aggressive ball on D. NO MORE EASY 3's.

I hope that's all it is. It's possible to get our heads out of asses, but if it's fatigue, we aren't getting our legs back tonight.

Yeah the calls are the difference between doesn 13 and down 9 or so but they need to up their effort and intensity big time

They are giving Craft and Scott the shots and its working Great..either Craft and Scott make a few or its OVER

why opposing coaches don't give craft and scott a 5-foot cushion around the perimeter is beyond me. i would NEVER crowd those two until they get within 15 feet. on top of that, i would give scott an even wider berth.
