OSU Feb 6 through Feb 22

    I know there are several Big 10 games before then, which are always big, but take a look at this line-up. With all the talk of OSU's easy schedule, this area should certainly be deadly.

    Feb 6- @ Minnesota
    Feb 12- @ Wisky
    Feb 15- Vs. MSU
    Feb 19- @ Purdue
    Feb 22- Vs. Illinois

    What say you?

    Possible loss at Purdue or Wisky. I say 4-1. Worst case, 3-2 IMO.

    Ohio State matches up well with just about every team in the Big Ten. My biggest worry is Purdue. So I say at worse 4-1 or 3-2 because Michigan State still has Izzo.

    My biggest concern in facing Purdue is Juan Johnson. At 6'10, he is very athletic, and can score in bunches. He gave us fits last year.

    Dude can score from anywhere. He has the ability to draw either Sully or Lauderdale, whoever guards him, away from the basket, which in turn can open up the lane. If he draws Dallas out, it severely limits his ability to rebound and block shots, which is basically all he does.

    Yeah, JuJuan Johnson is a deadly big man. His jumper went from non existant fresman year.....to knock down this year and last year

    All the while being a great rebounder, and maybe the best shot blocker in the big 10

    Even added the ability to shoot the 3 ball, although not at a great percentage.

    And i'd guess it's either him or Lauderdale for best shot blocker. Both averaging around the same amount per game, with Lauderdale playing less minutes.
