Bucks outscore them 56-42 in the second half. That's almost a full game, most nights.

93-81, good guys. Final! :osu:

I thought for sure they'd sleepwalk in and get ambushed and it looked like it would be exactly that for a half.

Great to see them put IU away in the 2nd half. Pain for IU fans is always a good thing.

Buford, Turner and Diebler with career highs. Lauderdale and Mullens are scoreless.

Strange game, but it looks like the result will be just fine. :cheers:

As Jon Diebler's official beard. I would like to say that I'm pretty sure he had 27 points against Iowa earlier this season.

I'll take 21 too though:)

What I like:
Scoring more points than the other team
Scoring 93 points
Buford, Diebler, and Turner playing a phenomenal offensive game. Simmons too- 17 and 8 assists!
Having 3 guys with 20+ points and Simmons close with 18.
Shooting 63% from the floor and 25-30 on free throws.
4-pt plays.
IU fans started chanting "Throw a chair! Throw a chair!" during a sequence of what they saw as bad calls. :lol:

What I don't like:
No contribution from the bigs.
First half turnovers. Evan is so lazy with passes sometimes. Also, the execution on fast breaks has been bad.
Only 4 guys recording points, until late in the game when PJ went to the FT line and hit a couple.
Allowing 81 points.
Roth just going bonkers from 3-pt land. IU as a team was 13-21 from three at one point. Seems like this happens a lot against OSU.

A good win for the Buckeyes on the road. They played tough, kept their heads, and put up more points than the other team. :)

GO Bucks!

I am with you...It looked like Mullens was sleep walking in this game, and forcing when he did touch the ball...Bad game for him...

I don't know what to do about these damn three balls other teams are hitting...It is always one guy...When one gets hot you have to find him at all times...If they hit as a team, fine...They would do the same against man, but one guy to have 8 is crazy...I mean the last couple were from nowhere land, but still gotta lock him up...

My biggest beef other than the defense and turnovers, is why no Walter Offut...It just seems to me and it was the same situation last year with Wallace and Lauderdale, that he could see the court more than he is...I mean he would be the best player for Indiana if he were a Hoosier, I don't think he is going to hurt much being on the floor...We are going to run Turner, Buford, Diebler out of gas...I am not sure when Matta is going to realize this...He did it with Butler last year, and Foster a couple years ago...

The worst year in their history and it couldn't happen to a more deserving group of fans. Hope their basketball program continues to rot.

Agreed, I hate IU basketball, but Crean is a helluva coach and he'll get them back eventually. Probably gonna take a while to get some footing with the sanctions and a bare-bones (current) roster, but getting Crean there was a real coup in my opinion.

Nice win to get back above .500 in the conference. scUM also lost again, so it was a good day.
