Don't get me wrong, I hate losing to *ucky. But they had the perfect game plan and finished what NW couldn't. That's the formula to beat OSU. But not many teams have that element of having multiple bigs that can hit deep shots. It's mostly guard play in the tourney.
Plus they had home court advantage (which always counts for something) which means we were in prime position for the "upset". I see a huge run for this team in the tournament. The only other type of team to pose a problem for OSU would be a physical team down low that can garner fouls on the big men. But there aren't too many of those around (Texas or Kansas maybe?).
If OSU doesn't make it to the final four, then this season did not come to fruition. My guess is the players want to take it a step further (NC or bust).
No matter what happens, this has been one of the most enjoyable teams to watch. The chemistry and fun they display on the court is amazing. I love the Buckeyes and I want nothing but continued success for the program.
GO BUCKS!
Never leave a fellow Buckeye hanging. I thoroughly enjoy this team and the grit they have displayed week after week. Many good things to come, I especially look forward to game two with the Badgers in the Shot and even more the matchup on the foorball field this fall.
