Nebraska at #23 tOSU, Tues 3/1, 7 ET on BTN

They look like a tired team. Effort is there, but you need the energy.

We really missed Luther Muhammed today. Would have trusted him more to shut someone down then Brown and make this game ugly

 

[Mike80]

Getting punked at home.

I, uh, I don’t think the Bucks are that good of a team this year. More #35-45 than top 15.

(ducks)

This is about average for the program. #30 all time in wins with a 61% winning percentage.

It sucks because we've seen what this group could be, but they can't maintain it. It is what it is.

 

[Jake]

Agreed but the team as it stands does not inspire confidence.

It’s Branham and EJ on offense, which luckily may be good enough to carry you on any given night.

Ahrens lost confidence in his shot. If he's not making threes he doesn't offer much else. KY and Zed are hit or miss - don't have either of them tonight, though.

I think this is just a team that without one more go-to player (whether that's Kyle, Seth, or Sueing) really hurts for productive depth and doesn't have the gas in the tank for games and situations like this. Let's hope we get back to "full strength" with everyone except Towns and Sueing for a March Madness run.

This is what was happening regularly over Matta's last 2-3 years. Might as well keep Holtmann and not pay the buyout.

Injuries and the effect they've had on depth are catching up to them.

They're a rim protector and 3&D guy away from being a dangerous team. I don't follow BB recruiting, but if Branham comes back and they have some good recruits coming in, it will help a lot.

Ahrens lost confidence in his shot. If he's not making threes he doesn't offer much else. KY and Zed are hit or miss - don't have either of them tonight, though.

And guards are non-existent. Would be nice to have ball handlers that can set up other shooters (Branham/EJ/Ahrens) or score themselves.

 

[HenryMuto]

Young got hurt I take it. Did not know that till just now. Jesus.

 

[dragurd]

We needed Liddell to shoot that way earlier and get the shot in the foul and put some nonsense into Nebrasketball's head

 

[scarletmike]

Not a good shot, EJ.

 

[dragurd]

Young got hurt I take it. Did not know that till just now. Jesus.

Sickness they say but he got banged up before it so it feels like injury masked as an illness

 

[Jake]

Corn didn't score for 3 minutes and the Bucks barely made up any ground. That was the opportunity.

 

[OHSportsFan]

EJ hits that and maybe got a shot. Now they’re done.

It’s amazing how neutralized Ahrens is. Absolutely nothing from him for the last couple months.

 

[dragurd]

That was dumb D nerbraska you put up resistance then let him score up 7. And crap FT's not helping

 

[scarletmike]

EJ hits that and maybe got a shot. Now they’re done.

It’s amazing how neutralized Ahrens is. Absolutely nothing from him for the last couple months.

He lost faith in his shot and it shows. He's faking on looks he would have taken without hesitation earlier in the season and last year. Unless he manages to find his confidence again, he won't really be a threat to provide points.

 

[HenryMuto]

If Ohio State had played Nebraska when they were supposed to when Nebraska was sucking that been an easy win.

So 2 games got rescheduled both vs Iowa and Nebraska turned into losses.

Brutal
