Ohio State vs Michigan State 1/6/08 ESPN

Best Buckeye

Pretending I'm a pleasant person is exhausting.

On tuesday the Bucks will travel to Lansing to beard the lion in it's den. This could be a pivotal game for the Buckeyes who will be joined in the game by forward Kecman who becomes eligible.
Will the Bucks be able to come out with a W ?
The game is scheduled for 7 pm and will be on ESPN
 
I get to go to the dentist at 6 then saunter home for this matchup. Maybe I'll see if I can stay at the dentist's for awhile and have her do some unnecessary painkiller-free drilling instead of going home for this.

haha! The last time I was at the dentist, he actually drilled my teeth without getting a shot.... anyway, it might be a similar situation for the Bucks!

Do you think they might do something different for a tad?? like maybe put Diebs at point every now and again, or turner??

Just a thought, I don't mind to sound negative, but it couldn't be too much worse than our current lineups...

Just not sure this team is ready for this matchup yet.

MSU slaughtered Minnesota on the boards, and Minnesota slaughtered us on the boards.

Seems like a bad equation.

I like Thad's zone defense, but it begs our opponents to crash the glass, and they do. Not really something you want when facing MSU.

Remember that wood-chipper scene from Fargo? Yeah, so do I. That's kind of what I expect to see tonight.

Remember the heckler in Major League, reminding everyone how bad this will go and how he predicted it? Yeah, so do I. That's kind of what I expect here every day :p
