Horrible no call but we played great...love Craft but would have preferred one of our better shooters have one of those last 2 shots of the game he attempted.
At the end of the day, we may be a whole lot better than I thought we were. Go Bucks.

Q and Amir are really growing up. And that's big time. Are they perfect? No, but they've started to get that passion and competitive fire to keep them involved in the game instead of getting lost.
Thompson was hitting jumpers early, too. That could be big for this team.
OSU really needs to get Thomas the ball at the end of the game. This has happened multiple times where he hasn't touched the ball late in the game even though he is the best offensive weapon. Makes zero sense.
Talk to Jent and/or Matta. They don't seem to care.
couldnt agree more to being happy with our performance. i love how aggresive amir was tonight and it really gives me a good feeling going forward
Beilein better be careful with the ongoing disrespect. Ohio, from the MAC, beat his ass in the NCAA tourney last year.
What DFresh said.
I agree, even Sam was hitting shots, even saw Shannon hit a jumper, looks like everyone is coming along. Should be ready for the tourney.
If one of our point guards could shoot we could win it all this year...Q should have been allowed to play so many more minutes this year... I hope he gets a ton going onto the tourney.

No call but good game! I mean is there anyone on 11W not wanting to complain about the game!

I thought Amir Williams played very well. Finally showing some explosiveness and aggressiveness on both offense and defense. I thought Q played very well too. The Bucks played a great game.
Sour taste in my mouth after the game. What could of been.....Oh well, hopefully tomorrow will make us all forget about this! Paging Dr. Urban

how come we didnt see a lot of shannon scott in the 2nd half?
One thing I really love about college basketball, is that losses can often be blessings in disguise. This team is still trying to figure out how good it can be, but before it can be great, it has to come together completely. They played incredibly well tonight, and should be proud, but I'm sure in the film room, when they see things like giving Craft help on Burke when he didn't need it leads to open threes, they are going to be far more interested in fixing that right away than if they had won the game.
As far as the elements of the game that are confidence-related (mostly shooting, but also keeping a cool head, not forcing things) I think those things all got great boosts tonight. They handled themselves admirably in a dogfight in a tough environment with incosistent officiating. The light may have come on for Q, Amir is becoming a beast, Sam was confident shooting and his defensive agressiveness is really paying off, and the only person that's probably really mad at himself is Craft (who shouldn't be, but is hypercompetitive so he probably is), and he should have the mental toughness to bounce back. Way to fight, Buckeyes. It's all about March.
