Ohio State vs. #15 Virginia, (Nashville, TN), Saturday Feb. 14, 8pm EST, FOX

As a fan and alumnus of both OSU and UVA, and having watched several games of each team this season, OSU got fucked by the refs tonight. That simple. OSU had the lead for the vast majority of the game, and very questionable calls stopped that lead right in its tracks. Royal played poorly tonight, but having him on the court is still important (he has been great at the end of games a couple times this season after having had a poor game to that point), and especially so when the team is shorthanded. OSU failed to stop UVA's rebounding, but did do well against their other strength, shooting the 3 ball. OSU played better defense that I thought they would in this game (would have been even better defense had the refs called it evenly). Down 2 starters from the beginning of the season. OSU was the better team tonight, but when one team is allowed to play physical on D and the other is not, there is not much you can do. 32-9 free throws in favor of UVA, and once again, OSU was rolling up until several poor calls in a row went UVA's way. This is my summation as someone who loves UVA basketball.
