Life’s hard in Santa Barbara.
With the NCAA’s version of the kids’ table (the 16a v. 16b play-in game) roughly 12 hours from first servings, it’s time to look ahead to Friday night’s main offerings as the Buckeyes travel to Milwaukee to take on the #15 seeded University of California-Santa Barbara Gauchos (a Gaucho is some [...]

Lauderdale: Not a good time for a Spring Break
One of the weak spots that many pundits have identified for Ohio State going into the NCAA tournament is the lack of size on the front line. Furthermore, they typically point out the lack of production from the post, which reflects Thad Matta’s guard-oriented offense. [...]

Turns out we were being a bit delusional thinking the Buckeyes were staring down a high two seed or even had an outside shot of snagging a one seed. Instead, the NCAA selection committee made the road back to Indy a little more difficult for Ohio State when they were awarded the last two [...]

Get your brooms out.

It’s been a hell of a weekend and it’s going to take some kind of awesome to top the first two games. The bad blood between the two teams adds some spice, as does the opportunity to complete the Big Ten’s first full house, so we certainly have a chance.

Two epic games in two days and though the double-OT thriller was a blast, there’s still nothing like ripping the heart out of your hated rival.
