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

Just take the damn shot!! Stop with the head fakes! Christ, this team needs coaching!

These refs suck

 

[brodybuck21]

Shoot the fucking ball Bruce!

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

Yeah, defense is not a strength for this program, and it hasn't been for a while. I think part of the problem is they target offensive skillset in recruiting and just think they will be able to coach them up on D. The reality is you should prioritize getting guys who have elite quickness and strength just as much as their offensive kit. I think OSU's coaches have this kind of "pro mentality" where they want to to build teams with NBA-style offenses, but it doesn't really work at OSU because you aren't at the program where you're going to have a bunch of future NBA players and need guys who can guard to win.

Shoot the fucking ball Bruce!

LOL. I will say it was frustrating seeing him pass the ball with like 2 on the shot clock.

 

[DZ83CK]

There's 10 minutes left but with Wisconsin up 10, it feels over already.

 

[Mike80]

Big Ten refs are cocksuckers and probably on the take

 

[Onebuckfan]

No defense no shooting all playground. Need s coach that holds them accountable. Back to the SR Bowl.

JFC. Tilly in position for the rebound, mistimes his jump, and gives up the offensive rebound. Now Bucky at the foul line for 2.

Thats just an example of what happens every game honestly. Not just Tilly. They all do shit like this. Knock rebounds away from each other that roll right to an opponent for an open 3. It's maddening

 

[DZ83CK]

OSU's big man platoon of Tilly and Njegovan are 0-10 from the field (all good chances) while Wisconsin is up by 10. If there's one position that's costing OSU this game, it's the post position.

 

[DZ83CK]

How did Tilly not convert the lob?!? Crazy.

 

[GreenwoodBuck]

Tilly, you are 6’10” slam the alley oop!

 

[DZ83CK]

Tilly, you are 6’10” slam the alley oop!

Frustrating. I realize he's not 100%, but you're already in the air, you can just tap it in from that position, you don't have to catch it & guide it.

 

[DZ83CK]

Well obviously this game is over, but they need to let Tilly rest and get right. OSU is not going to win tough games down the stretch without any offense from the post position.
