Had no business being in those discussions to begin with.

How so? They only have three losses. Outside of Kansas and Kentucky they've got just as good a claim as anybody else. Whether they actually were a #1 seed or not is debatable, but there's no question they should've been in the discussion.

NW fans chanting "just like football" versus Iowa. :lol:

ESPN breaking down who has the best chance to win the B10, shows the schedules and includes '@PSU' for OSU. It wasn't just a typo, either. They discussed the fact that OSU had the easiest schedule and were going to play Penn State. Fantastic job, guys. :shake:

call them up and try to take bets on the game.

in college I jokingly bet a kid who would win a world cup game that had already been played and he took me up on it. I didn't plan on taking his money but he was such a douche about the whole thing :lol:

Considering we have 7 losses, I doubt we'll be a 1 seed. Conference tournaments don't seem to be considered much in terms of seeding, and we really haven't been in the conversation much, next to these teams with 2 and 3 losses. I feel like if we win out we should be a solid 2-seed, though.

What first & second round location would geographically suit the Buckeyes the best.....assuming they could get a 2 seed? I'm officially calling Syracuse to Buffalo. It would be fucking sweet to have OSU there, too. Most of the Bracketology sites have the 1, 16, 8, 9 for Syracuse, then a mystery 2, 15, 7, 10......the 2 usually being WVU or Nova.

PLEASE take that 2 seed from WVU. Those hilljacks pack whatever stadium they go to, and are annoying as hell.

Other possibilities: Providence, Milwaukee, Jacksonville, New Orleans, OK City. I can't imagine they'd be shipped out to Spokane or San Jose as a 2 seed.

Buckeyes closing in on another football/basketball sweep: Big Ten Insider
By Doug Lesmerises, The Plain Dealer
February 28, 2010

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Terrelle Pryor wanted to know the score.

"I hope Purdue loses," the Ohio State quarterback said Sunday afternoon. Told the Boilermakers were trailing Michigan State, Pryor said, "That's good then."

"I'm just happy the girls are in and now we need the guys coming in. I'm sure they'll get it done," Pryor said.

Actually, Pryor and the football Buckeyes were in first, winning their fifth straight Big Ten title in the fall. Then the OSU women's basketball team wrapped up its sixth straight Big Ten title and will open as the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten Tournament on Friday. Thanks to Michigan State's 53-44 win over the Boilermakers, Ohio State is looking to repeat some rare conference history.

The Buckeyes are the only team to win Big Ten titles in football and both basketballs in the same season, doing it in 2005-06 and 2006-07. If Ohio State beats Illinois at home on Tuesday night, it will happen for a third time.

At 13-4, Ohio State holds a half-game lead over the 12-4 Boilermakers and 12-4 Spartans and will clinch at least a tie for the title with a win over the 10-6 Illini. Because of tiebreakers, the Buckeyes would also assure themselves the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten Tournament with a win.

The bracketology sites that came out today with updates still have Ohio State as a 3 seed, both with Purdue as a 2 seed.

I just don't get it. Maybe they have to wait until OSU wins against Illinois and then makes their run in the tourny while they watch Purdue fall?
