Ohio State 67, #7 Notre Dame 62 (final)

I still think Turner needs another year...to get stronger and cut down the turnovers and improve the jumpshot...His 3 is not NBA ready yet...Reminds me a lot of Josh Howard...

I agree but players like him go very high. They love those long athletic forwards who are versatile on offense and defense.

I hope someone recorded the game and can upload it.

Very good win. Glad I could watch. So many young kids stepping up. The upside of this team is unbelievable IMO. Fun to watch, Thanks Buckeyes... Early birthday present for me....

Top 25, Top 20? Here we come

Any Predictions???

I'm think 20-23 ranking.

We move into the top 20 after this win...We beat a top 10 team and a top 25 team...

CNNSI.com's power rankings have us at #14. I'm guessing we'll be ranked in the actual polls around 18, +/-2 spots. Keep in mind that we both ranked teams on the road.

I didn't get to watch the game, So i really can't say anything right now.

Me either. Man I wish I could've seen this one. Figures, it the only game this year I haven't been able to see.

From the stat box it looks like Diebs really struggled with his shot. Need to get him back on track. With Turner driving and Diebs drilling 3s and with the presence of BJ and Dallas underneath...we're going to make some noise!

as an admission to to this game...every time I watched, Notre Dame made runs on us. I was flipping back and forth between all of the games (Sec championship, DUKE/MICH, and OSU/ND). Whenever I switched back tOSU would have extended the lead.

I decided I'd watch the game on DVR since I was recording, but I missed most of the second half. Saw some plays in between flipping, but most of "those plays" were ND making a run on us. I just know if I had continued to watch, tOSU was going to lose.

Superstition my friends. It worked this time.

Still happy that the Buckeyes won hitting only three three-pointers in the game and going 3-for-16 from deep.

Buford and Mullens keep developing.

Haha. Lighty's the king of taking charges.

No, not the king ... He's the Jedi master!

Probably true, but as always the NBA drafts and pays for potential. 20 more games of this and he is gone.

Maybe this will finally put that stupid "live by the 3, die by the 3" cliche to bed for good.

Ah, it wouldn't be a Saturday without N_tre _ame losing...just much sweeter when it's to us.

Somebody with clout get a little Vbet going on where we think the Buckeyes will arrive at in the top 25, if anywhere.

My pick would be at #19.

Some of my Miami Hurricane friends thought their loss against Ohio State was a fluke...not anymore.
