[OSU_Buckguy]

1. poor transition defense

2. no matta timeout early during msu's run ()

3. below par 3-point shooting

4. poor ball movement and shot selection late in second half

Terrible.


Oh well, it was a great game. MSU just wanted to win more

No offense, but that line rubs me the wrong way. There's no need to question the heart of our team just because they lost today. It was NOT for lack of effort.

Big FT attempt here

Hey, at least they MADE a few threes this time around... Baby steps, Buckguy.... Baby steps.

DeShaun was a man today..

Congrats to Sparty. The second half was great basketball to watch.

The 10-0 they made after tOSU was up 52-45 and Green went to the bench was huge. That should be a lesson that you can't ever let up.

And you always need to get back on defense.

ugh

Oh well, Sparty is going to make some noise in the tournament the next couple weeks. Our boys fought them all the way.

I'm ready to see where we are going and who we'll play.

 

[Magua]

That's what we drew up?

You really fucking think MSU is going to let us run the exact same play Buford beat them with a week ago?

Dont abbreviate the sentence and take it out of context. Sorry if it rubbed you wrong, but the truth cuts deeply. We looked out of sorts too many times and MSU went right at what they wanted. We didnt control the game and they did. They wanted it more than we did. Pretty simple.

This, over the last 10 minutes. They kept playing hard but didnt keep things under control enough. Missing free throws? Thats concentration. The same as missing wide open looks when we had them. MSU didnt miss theirs.

Congrats to Michigan State.

If we're in UK's bracket... I quit.

Learn from it and move on, Buckeyes. Nothing to hang your heads about.

 

[Buckeye Nut]

Michigan State is just a little bit better than us I think. No shame in losing to them.

Great game - missed foul shots were the difference.
