Ohio State at Illinois, Jan 24th, 7 PM EST, ESPN

Well, Illinois is pretty underwhelming this year and IU just ran them off their own court.

I expect this will be an ugly mistake-filled game with both teams doing their best to blow it.
Pretty much what I thought it would be (Illini up 17 as I type this, but I'm not holding my breath)

Matthew Mayer was sick for the game last week and that was part of why IU depressingly handed us our ass

Officially the worst shooting Buckeye team I've ever seen.

I dont see a way to fix it either. Attack the basket try to make layups? Missing them too. How about drive and get fouls for free throws? Fucking 50%?!?!
Is there a coach alive that could make this team win right now? I doubt Phil Jackson could fix it.

Why? I don't get how they all of a sudden can't make a damn basket. :smash:

No comeback tonight. Every time the Bucks made a run to get within 7-8 points they pushed it back out to 15-17.

Kind of hard to win when you struggle to get to 60 points. At least the Iowa game was fun.

Holtmann needs to stop recruiting all these 6’4 - 6’7 players who all seem to have the same skill set. We need height depth is an understatement. I also feel that we always have thick muscular guys who might pass the eye test but are very slow. Especially on Defense. We don’t need football linebackers playing basketball. Illinois is a bunch of lean scrawny kids who look much more athletic. Just an observation of the type Holtmann seems to recruit.
