Sparty @ Ohio State, 2/23/16, ESPN

Start grabbing Forbes. Take the 2 FTs instead of the open 3 every time. Fucking hell.

 

[dragurd]

Jesus put Diop on Forbes at this point.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Some guys need to "dig in" on defense. Too much standing high and not getting into guys.

(But no slapping the floor, please)

 

[buckeyesin07]

Sure would be nice if we put a man on Forbes.

 

[Jake]

And at this moment... we found out OSU is going to the NIT

I think we've suspected it since the home losses to Louisiana Tech and Texas-Arlington, but the boys rallied and won enough games to keep hope alive until tonight.

 

[dragurd]

I just hope without Tate we can keep Matta's 20 game win every season alive at this point

 

[scarletmike]

Fuck.

 

[keeganbrick]

To make things worse Forbes and Valentine always annoy the hell out of me too. Can't stand looking at them

From the looks of things that may require two wins in the B1G tournament this year. Those two early home losses to average teams have haunted the Bucks all season.

Should still be able to pick up an easy one in the Big Ten Tourney as all the good teams get byes now.

Might come down to winning one in the NIT to get to 20.

I'd swear Valentine has been there for a decade.

 

[scarletmike]

Yay NIT?

 

[Jake]

We won the NIT when I was a student. Of course, we were 14-14 and Eldon Miller was a lame duck so the NIT was pretty cool that year. Got to see Lou Carnesseca and his crazy sweater in St. John arena.

That and a tall white guy. They always have a tall white guy

 

[scarletmike]

That was a great recovery play on defense by Lyle.
