  Regardless, great win for the Buckeyes.

  Everything I see says regular season win steak. Did they lose a non regular season game at home in the middle of that streak? Fox today showed Marquettes as the longest. Not that it matters much, but you would think Fox couldn't mess something like that up

  MTSU probably hosted the conference tournament and lost...

  false. The sun-belt tourney is at a neutral location. I did a quick count and only got 29 (now 30), but I may have missed one.

  ahh thanks. I was looking at the conference tourney and completely forgot that NIT games were at higher seeds courts.

  Della Valle isn't a bad basketball player

  Neither is Loving. I like our depth, but I think Lenzelle needs more time, he's our best shooter that can contribute big minutes
• birddog23

  OSU is just bad. From an outsiders view who has watched their game against Ohio and Marquette, and this first half, they simply cannot score the ball. Nobody can shoot.
  
  Luckily the BIG 10 is kind of down this year.
• se-alum

  

  I think it'll take them 10-15 games to really come together. Q needs to get healthy and adjust to being a guy teams game plan against. Loving and Amedeo just need more experience. When everyone gets comfortable and start knocking down shots, this team will be a very tough out, cause you know they'll end up really good defensively.

  Defense is very good, Offense has a lonnnnnnng way to go. Thought it would be like this going into this season.

  I didn't think they would be that bad. They have absolutely no rhythm

  Same here. Had no idea where the offense would come from.
  
  The fact that Q doesn't look like he's improved at all doesn't help.

  Doesn't have the same spacing either though, DT helped draw a ton of attention, we don't have that guy that can do that this year.
• se-alum

  

  On the bright side, Williams has shown a lot of development. Still needs to get stronger, but is showing an offensive game.

  I'm liking Amir

  Ed Hightower with a standing O upon announcement that this will be his last game in Columbus lol
• Classyposter58

  

  OSU will simply wear most teams down with that D, it's honestly probably the best in the country and will keep them in every game. Just need to improve the shooting is all, this team does not have the Lighty-Buford-Diebler combo that didn't miss

  Celebration or congratulations?
• Midstate01

  

  Killing them right now with Q being hurt and playing small minutes. They should just sit him until he's healthy.
  
  Fuck hightower. That was a celebration cheer.

  Agree about Loving, but how much more time does Lenzelle need? I like Amir's and Amedeo's progress, and Craft, Sammy, Scott and Q are going to be solid....McDonald, not so much.
