Ohio State 67 Mich St. 78 (Final)

This will likely be unpopular, but I've really reached the point of missing O'Brien's teams. Matta's teams seem almost uniformly to lack toughness. The degree to which this team is being outrebounded is disgusting.

I'm not terribly disappointed but I'm also looking at it from the standpoint that these guys are so young and it takes some teams a year or more to develop a real identity. Most of out guys dont even have well defined roles yet. Diebler is the shooter and Buford is becoming the scorer. Turner was supposed to be the playmaker but he's more often than not lately fell short of that role. There are glimpses but he disappears for a while in some games. BJ and Dallas just arent making anyone respect them in the paint. The team lacks alot of overall toughness and their hands are some of the worst I've seen on a team. Too many passes, rebounds and tips bouncing off the floor. They need to get the freaking Jugs machine out and blister these guys hands because they're horrible right now.
