Thompson did not even take a shot, of course he did not play much for some reason? Thad?
Sibert & Scott were what about 0-10.
2-17 from 3 range, with 19 turnovers and we still won by 31. Wow are the Huskers that bad...

2-17 from 3 range, with 19 turnovers and we still won by 31.

I was worried about the lack of a three point threat costing tOSU come NCAA tourney time, however, now the lack of a three point threat AND the lazy turnovers are making me worry that this will cost tOSU the B1G championship.

It's OK. We're used to it.

Nineteen turnovers for the Buckeyes. That's gotta be fixed.

I'm thinking that either coach Matta didn't get his words out quite right, or he was misquoted by the AP.

"Nobody likes to lose more than we do," Matta said (referring to his tough approach with the team after the IU game).

Here's the box score, after I compared the rebounding totals, even I started feeling bad for Nebraska.

I think he meant that they use losses as teaching moments. He wasn't saying he likes to lose; he was saying he appreciates the "opportunities" a loss provides in getting through to the team.

.118 in 3Pters



This is a major problem going forward.

I didn't think coach Matta was indicating he actually likes to lose. And you could be right on his deeper meaning, but I suspect he simply misspoke, and meant to say something along the lines of, "nobody hates to lose more than we do".
