Damn. Even the layups wont go.


Coach needs to think about revamping this season's offense. If you live and die by the 3 you have to have more than one consistent shooter. I would like to see him run and gun other teams to death. Play 8-10 players and press the crap out of them with no dominant big man. Unless the light fully comes on for Amir, that's this teams best chance.

Exactly. They aren't top 5 worthy. 7-9 is about where they should be.

But this game shows us Ohio State isn't ready for prime time.

Yea well I'm not going to point the finger but several players today played beneath their potential. Hopefully Thad gets them prepared for the conference games because they still can have a great season.

What's the point In even saying we aren't a such and such team

Didn't we go toe to toe with Duke at their place ? They've been the most impressive team In the country.

They played well over their heads in that game.

There are three positives I see in this game:

1. The defense was strong most of the game.

2. I think we are seeing an emerging best 5 - Craft, Scott, Thompson, Thomas and Williams

3. There won't be too many 28% shooting nights.

However they are probably going to lose by 10+ at home. There isn't any positive to be taken from this game that can overshadow that.

Yep but second half shooting cost us. It is pretty much feast or famine. I dont think most people disagree with the talent it just isnt typical OSU inside-outside play. They have their moments for sure but against top echelon teams the weaknesses show up more. That's why we debate them when we play these types of teams. What fun would it be if we just watched, said nothing and went on about our way? :osu:

Guys we are losing to a team that was in the Final Four last year, and this year they have four seniors returning. We just met a better team tonight and we couldn't hit the bottom of the ocean right now....

Pretty sad shooting all around. Defensively big men lazy in transition pointing numerous times to other people to pick up their men. Was hoping for a better performance today..hopefully Thad rights the ship before B10 season. First time in a long time I heard boo birds at the Schott...depressing day in Cbus

Tough loss. Lot's to work on and the B1G will be brutal. Still going to be fun/interesting to see how this all plays out. I think this team could be really good by the end of the year.

Let's enjoy the season, enjoy the wins, take the lumps, and see where it takes us in March.



Go Bucks.
