Bump

The Fighting Irish will upset the Buckeyes in front of a large crowd of Irish Catholics in MSG. I'm going to go make a bet with Woody.

That's not going to help Aaron Craft win the Heisman.

Did you know he was a QB in high school????!!!!! Zounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Break out the fucking plunger on these fools.

Reasons for optimism-OSU guards vs ND guards.

Reasons for concern- ND bigs vs Williams.

I may be over simplifying it somewhat but I think OSU wins a close one? Maybe? Anyone?

I don't think it is going to be a nail biter. ND has already lost to Indiana State and North Dakota State this season. And they got hammered by Iowa State in the tourney last year right before the Cyclones took on OSU. I think this is a double-digit win for OSU. ND was a #7 seed last year in the tourney, and their best big man last year was Cooley and he isn't on the team anymore. It is a tough matchup for Amir because he struggles against the taller big men out there, but everyone else should have a solid game.

Any chance to beat ND - in anything - makes me smile. Kick ass, Bucks!

 

[Jake]

Illinois knocks off previously unbeaten Missouri and, more importantly, avoids overtime.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

by now, you'd think our players would know that bullet entry passes to amir have a failure rate close to 100%.

 

[scarletmike]

Holy shit, that was a mugging! How did they not call that?

Scott may be catching fire tonight...

 

[Jake]

Weak call on McDonald there.

And now he gets his second...and he's out.

This might be one of the deepest squads Matta has fielded since he's been at Ohio State.

When a guy like Sam Thompson is coming off the bench, you have a deep team.
