Ohio State @ Wisconsin, Saturday Jan. 31, 2pm EST, FOX

[DZ83CK]

Blackwell bully ball.

Tilly doesn't have it today, not making anything near the basket.

 

[DZ83CK]

Diebler needs to sit Tilly the second half, obviously he has been injured but the truth is he's just not helping right now.

 

[DZ83CK]

Badgers lead 49-43 at half. OSU could not get any stops defensively the first half, if that continues they have no chance to win this game.

49 pts allowed in the 1st half is unacceptable. Not winning any games on the road when on pace to give up 98 pts.

From up 11 to down 6............my excitement from the fast start has gone by the boards now and expecting another tough loss.

 

[DZ83CK]

Tilly was 0-6 in the first half, and all of them were in the high-percentage shot category. I get that he's been the best big this season, but he can't be the best right now.

 

[DZ83CK]

Wisconsin shot 57% from the field and 47% (7-15) from 3. Not sure what the Buckeyes can change up defensively to hold them down more, but whatever they tried the first half (not guarding Rapp closely seemingly was part of the plan) certainly didn't work.

Good news
43 pts
Chatman and Bynum both scoring

Bad news
Wisky on pace for 100 pts

Another game that can go either way. After watching other teams at the top of this league play, the biggest difference is the passing/dribbling this team seems to do vs those other teams. Every player seems to still head fake or dribble too long before passing. Chatman and Mobley the only two who seem to just go for it. Bynum is starting to get there. This team needs to think of the next pass when the ball is coming their way. Nebraska and Michigan whip the ball around so fast it makes it hard to guard. Wisky doing the same today. We tend to dribble too long and too far in the zone only to throw a bad pass or set up for a terrible shot.

 

[DZ83CK]

If I told you before the game Thornton would have 7, Mobley 5, Royal 4 and Tilly 0 (on 0-6 shooting) & Wisconsin scored 49 the first half, you'd probably take a 6-point halftime deficit with that info. Chatman and Bynum keeping the offense afloat, but gotta find some answers defensively.

 

[Mike80]

Not much you can do when the other team shoots 70% except hope they start missing

 

[brodybuck21]

Not looking good fellas

 

[GreenwoodBuck]

Tilly definitely not helping the team today.

 

[GreenwoodBuck]

Happens too often with this team. Teams shoot like crap the game before, only to shoot like this. MSU sucked vs Michigan but will shoot 65% when we play them. If a team in the top half of this conference loses a game before they play us, I always count in a loss. Just how it’s been for what seems like forever

 

[GreenwoodBuck]

Stop shooting the 3, Royal!!!!

 

[GreenwoodBuck]

Mobley, Chatman, and Thornton are the only 3 that should be allowed to shoot behind the arc. This team takes some many I’ll-advised shots, it’s sickening!
