Wiscy is a very skilled team, definitely more of a finesse team but they have been hard for B1G teams to stop defensively due to Kaminsky. I think with OSU's game being tied to turnovers, it will be interesting to see if OSU can get some foul trouble on Bucky and force #13 into the game who is very shaky turning the ball over, moreso than their starters, and really made some bad plays last night against Minnesota. Minnesota was also able to burn them for several easy looks in transition, so early offense should be a big emphasis for OSU.

This is more or less the formula to beat Wisconsin. With Jackson out for the foreseeable future, they have next to no depth. Duje Dukan (#13) is the first off the bench but has been a disappointment for most of the year after playing really well in the NCAA Tournament last year. This has led to the starters playing the lion's share of the minutes. MSU was able to run the floor on them and put up some quick threes in transition. And, like usual, they struggle to stop penetration by quick guards.

I'm mildly okay with seeding talk before and after the game...

but can we at least avoid the in-game comments where "omg, we turned it over with under 4:46 left in the 1st half, committee totally has us as 9.679 seed now!!1!" stuff.

Scoff all you like, but if the Bucks miss more than 5 during the pre game lay up drill it is bound to cost us a spot in seeding.
