Last three Illinois possessions: Tisdale TO trying to dribble, Tisdale blocked on a bunny and knocked on his ass, Tisdale TO trying to pass with :00 on the shot clock.
Bat Boy maybe needs to sleep hung from the ceiling for a few days, get his head on straight.

I've said it since the beginning of Big Ten play: Individually, each game is very winnable with this squad. As a whole I see them dropping one or two. Three toughest games remaining are @ the Kohl Center, @ the Barn and @ Mackey Arena. If I chose one of those as the loss I'd say @ Minnesota.
agree that we could lose any one of these three games but I think the toughest environment to play in is that Minnesota and they almost looked like a better team against Northwestern without Nolen and playing the three big guys in their 1-3-1 zone. Makes things very difficult as the Buckeyes will have to shoot the lights out to win this one. Not saying that the other two will be cakewalks but I think we match up better against Purdue and Wisconsin.

On another topic

I can't believe how bad Indiana basketball has become. They win a game against Illinois on their home court and then storm the court like it was 1976 all over again. To see Crean kiss his wife as soon as the final horn went off made me wonder what Bob Knight would have thought if he would have seen that.

Minnesota taking on Purdue at Mackay Arena.

Of note- Ed Hightower (:shake:) is doing the game, meaning he once again will not be performing in the Buckeyes game later this evening. :)
there is always Valentine to take his place:tongue2: and after watching the Illinois/Indiana game this past week it could turn into a schoolyard game.

State Penn beats Wisconsin 56-52

its Jan 29 and State Penn is ahead of Illinois and Michigan State in the Big 10 standings, who woulda thought
Battle hit some big-time threes in the second half to pull that one out. He did not shoot very well the first half. I don't look forward to going to their house because their other guys are starting to shoot pretty well also.
