Ohio State 80 Purdue 77 (Final--OT)

I want to take this momentum into the last game of the regular season and into the Big Ten Tourny. HUGE win for this team. We played the full 40 minutes and then some! A big congradulations to Matta and the boys, but we still have some unfinished business.

Even with a win against Sparty, we will still be on the bubble. I have a feeling this team's hopes for the Big Dance will come in the Big Ten Tourny. If we can make it to the semifinals in the Big Ten Tourny, I think you'll see our hole punched.

I know that they say the cut off is 20 wins in the regular season but like last year even 20 wins didn't get you in. (Syracuse). We have to hope for a Florida and a Syracuse strong performance in their respective conference tourneys along with us winning or getting to the final in the Big Ten tourney and a win over Mich St of course.

I think this win over Purdue really picked everyone up and maybe gave them a little bit of confidence that they have lacked all year. We all know they have the talent now maybe they realize they do.

I really liked Dallas and Othello early. They set the tone for this game and then Butler and Turner sealed it in OT.

Good game Bucks! Winning in OT really has to make erbody feel good.

Props all around...

But Big props to the seniors...They stepped up...Butler, Hunter, and Twig...

There time is almost up and they played like it tonight...Hopefully they do that again on senior night...

Also props to Matta...Don't know if it was something he changed or what...But there was better rotation on defense tonight and more movement on offense, screens off the ball for i think the first time I have seen all year...

Also he gave Jamar some rest and played PJ Hill some, along with getting Lauderdale some minutes, and left Twig and Hunter in there when they were owning the paint and KK was getting pushed around some...

Basically all the things we have been hammering home all season took place tonight...

Lets hope this win propels them to where they need to be...

Total donkey shit:

Kofus needs to step his basketball IQ up.

Just want everyone to see the distinction.

If you're going to effectively call Kosta Koufos dim-witted on the court, you'd better have something to back it up.
