  OSU isnt deep and if they arent at home they are garbage.

  Good enough to make Duke like a girls JV team

  It's a saying. You don't actually sit in a corner and think "omg, OSU isn't that good!"

  You are the worst. Officials rarely, if ever lose a team a game. Tonight was no different. Stfu and criticize the people who deserve it, the coach and some players

  Yeah, but duke sucks. I was more impressed with the win over Purdue than that one
• Automatik

  

  Yeah, no way the refs were in this outcome. I just thought it was bad overall. Late whistles, shit calls and non calls.

  That is what I saw....he created and did anything he needed to do. He is going to be a good one
• Fly4Fun

  

  Well, hopefully this crap gets the team to really focus and get back on their game before the post-season (NCAA Tourney begins). It's not about who is the best team. It's who is the hottest team with best match-ups.
• KR1245

  

  They needed to get something from Willy or the bench. This team is going to need Deshaun to play out of his mind in March if they want to make any noise.
  
  There is no point in counting on Willy anymore, the dude just doesnt have it when it counts.

  Except those weren't on Craft, they were on Scott and off ball screens, which OSU is still horrible at defending btw.

  He got by him a few times 1 on 1 as well not just off pick and roll. Hell the first bucket of the game was him gettin by craft spinning and finishing with a right hand.
• Tiger2003

  

  Quit fucking making excuses. This team is not that good. They don't have scorers. The coaching is good not great. Sully is over hyped, Buford is Buford, Craft good defense sucks at offense, Smith well nobody else could start, and Thomas best shooter on the team.
  
  Michigan just out played out hustled the Bucks tonight. Like I said after the Bucks got beat by MSU kiss the BIG Title goodbye and people disagreed with me. Maybe this game you will now believe that.
  
  OSU will lose in the 2nd round.
• Laley23

  

  Btw, Michigan is a top 4 seed. Osu will still make the 16 barring a pretty big upset. The teams they will play wont be of he caliber of the teams they are losing to. IU, Michigan, MSU, Kansas, etc

  That was one of the two times, the other at the end. We must have watched a different game.
• M Plant

  burke is a good one, no doubt. He also is very good at using the off arm ... Buford needs to wake up or JJs never gonna get free again.... Ted Valentine is a hot dog.... Charge/blocks are tough, but usually the call. should go to the quicker guy, not the slide-under guy ... Mich. has very little individual talent other than the backcourt (Morgan is ok) but plays well together ... Worst OSU outing since pre-Oden days, yet Bucks managed to stay in it till the end. ... Winning out, all of a sudden, doesn't look to promising

  Tonight Burke's offense > Craft's defense
  
  Althought most likely tonight Burke's offense > anyone's defense

  Yes. But then they aren't considered "big games" anymore. The argument changes depending on what's more beneficial. Duke wasn't a "big game" because it wasn't close. Purdue wasn't a "big game" even though it was close, because Purdue isn't that good. Florida wasn't a "big game" just because he played well in it.
  
  He's just a streaky shooter. He couldn't hit against Iowa, Lamar, or Texas-Pan American either. Whether it's a "big game" or not has nothing to do with it. Streaky shooters have off nights. He's still the #3 option on this team even when he isn't shooting well, as sad as that is.
  
  The freshmen and sophomores better get a lot better offensively this offseason, because shit is going to be straight up ugly when Sully and Will are gone. Deshaun Thomas can't score 35 ppg.
  
  As for this season, I said it in the Michigan State game. This team is mentally weak. I don't think they have the leadership or toughness to win a championship. I hope they prove that wrong, but I just don't see it. I don't think they're a round of 32 knockout either though. That seems like a stretch.
• Midstate01

  

  We couldn't hit open looks and they had two white guys hitting fadeaway turnaround jumpers. What are you gonna do?

  Not to be a prick but who gives a shit...
  
  
  Bottom line is that Burke got the best of Craft tonight

  And still 22 points better then duke.

  Because of two plays? Craft locked him down for 90% of the game.

  I wish the Bucks got Burke!!

  I love Crafts defense, but he doesn't help the offense at all. It seems like they don't want the PG to score, so when you have Craft not scoring and Thompson or Smith in there it's basically 3 guys to worry about scoring, and Buford just doesn't have it in big games.

  He locked him down for 90% of the game by letting him score 3 points over his season average
