There's an awful lot of waltanschauung that needs to be dealt with at Ohio State, and unfortunately Doc Sadler and his charges are likely to look like Dreden Feb 1945.

Hope you're ready to bring it tonight, Buckeyes. We're going to kick your @ss in warmups.

Then those TV timeouts? We'll see who gets to their seats first. You wanna try to keep up with our substitution patterns? Ha, good luck. You have no chance.

In all honesty, I can't remember the last time the Huskers were a 20+ point underdog. I do think that's an accurate spread for this game. I compare this OSU team to the 2008 Kansas team with Mario Chalmers. NBA guys all over the place.

Nebraska will pack it in on defense kinda like Wisconsin. Doc is a defesive coach and usually puts together a sound strategy. He just rarely has the horses to pull it off. On offense, they'll run the weave on top of the key and drain the shot clock on almost every possession to shorten the game. We will be without 2 of our top 3 scorers (Dylan Talley-SG and Brian Diaz-C). It was going to be a tough game even if those two were healthy.

On my Husker board, I descibed Doc's strategy as getting his team to act like a speed bump hoping the opponent will trip over them as they run us over. It's already been a long basketball season for me, and it's about to get even longer. NU won't be this bad every year, but they sure are right now.
