I dont' know how that was not a foul. Robinson clearly raked Craft across the wrists. That is not how this game should have ended. Also DT has got to be furious. Zero shots and quite possibly zero touches in OT.

With that said, OSU looked like a title contender tonight. If we get this kind of effort from Ross and Williams then we will be in very good shape come March.

Needing that kind of shooting and that kind of help from the refs to win a game by two points in overtime at home says more about the winning team than it does about the losing team.

+1

That team's destiny the round of 8. No way they get out of the regional finals.

Tough loss tonight. Some things are just out of your control. You can't control the end of the game officiating. You can't control assholes making heat-check 3 after heat-check 3. The bucks handled their business well for the most part, but just ran out of gas in OT.

My biggest criticism from tOSU's performance tonight is their off ball defense. Too often tOSU's defenders got caught up in screens or lost their man on cuts. That cost them several easy baskets, which could have easily swung the game.

Overall, I gotta say I'm proud of this team's performance. This team just absolutely fought all night long. Mich went on a big run to start the game, but the bucks clawed back. Mich was insanely hot from 3 in the 2nd half. But every time those fuckers knocked down a 3, tOSU answered. There were games earlier in the year when the bucks just couldn't respond when the momentum started to go the other way. The bucks just wouldn't let mich get the momentum tonight.

There's a lot of positives to take from this game. Losing sucks. Losing to scum fucking blows. But, it's tough to win on the road against a team of this caliber. Hopefully the bucks build on this and continue to show improvement.

All In all

On the road. Hardaway with a career night , 6-9 on the road. Sketchy refs

This LaQuinton Ross , Stay for awhile. Matta keep him In the game. Honestly..... I'm not even a fan with the defense for offense subs late In the game

Not surprised the refs didn't call a single one of the fouls that were committed against Craft on the last possession. Look back at when they went to the monitors to review for a flagrant-1. Regardless of how that went, look at how long they took, how much they deferred to one another and just how timid they appeared to be in that situation. They had no interest in blowing their whistles from there on out.

I was in Ann Arbor a week ago recruiting for summer interns. During the greet and meet the night before the interviews talk naturally turned to sports and how TSUN is so great. Naturally some of the potential interns asked me how were the athletic programs at my alma mater. Not bad, I say...'cause I went to The Ohio State University.
One of the students went on to say that we went 12-0 because we had an easy schedule. My retort was "I only have two facts for you. Fact #1 We beat your ass to finish undefeated and, #2 App State....

You could have heard a pin drop. The only sound you heard was the OSU undergrad who is at TSUN to get her MBA snicker.....

God, I really hate that school and their arrogrant asses....

Basically my thoughts. Sucks not to get the win but we really played like champions on the road. If we play at that level, we can beat anyone in the country. Key moving forward is Ross to continue to develop...if he can be explosive for us offensively and rebound like he did tonight, we ARE an elite team.

Crappy no-call for sure at the end but we put ourselves in that position with all the turnovers and poor shot selection, and above all not even trying to get the ball to DT. The shot Craft took with about 8 to go should have been taken by DT and it was a ludicrous play not to put the game in DT's hands. Still, I am not sure I have ever seen Craft on the level he was tonight and that is really saying something. Keep your heads up Buckeyes and we are still going to do great things.
