    Seriously! How can you watch the game and post at the same time? Some people are much better at multitasking than me apparently.

    This is how I do it. You will almost never see me post during a Cavs, Browns, Indians, or Buckeyes game that I'm watching.

    I mean, if my squad has a seemingly insurmountable lead I may throw out a comment, but rarely.

    Ok, I thought he might have actually done something I didnt see.

    Eceryyone back to reality here please. Aren't you guys discussing your #1 seed chances? That certainly wasn't a #1 seed performance a week before the tournament.
    Syracuse lost their first conference tourney game.
    Kentucky is losing to Alabama in their first conference game.
    Kentucky will win by 20.

    so close. I feel for you though, that must have brought back memories of Ron Lewis cashing his 30' a few years ago. Too bad Gus Johnson wasn't on the call for this one.

    This game today proves why Ohio State doesn't deserve a No.1 seed and won't make it past the Sweet 16
  • ytownfootball
    Ok, so elaborate.

    Don't just have yourself a little dynamite drop in then not back up your assertion.
  • gibby08
    They struggled to beat a sub.500 team who they had already lost to

    Ok. I'm sure a 9 day layoff didn't have anything to do with it.

    Or that it's hard to be jazzed about:
    a. Playing a quarterfinal game in a conference tournament that, despite NCAA seeding, has no bearing on whether or not you make the tourney because you've made it regardless of this game/tournament.

    b. Playing a team that is 15-16 overall that you have already beat and lost to once on the road while missing your best player.

    OSU beats whoever wins the Wisky/Illini game tomorrow.

    Yeah...further than Michigan. :rolleyes:

    Anything can happen in March. OSU had a significant time off, UM had nothing to lose, shitty second half by OSU, Mannie gets hot, etc. Win and advance.
    Yep. Because Michigan sucks. You got beat once and almost twice in the B10 tourney by them.

    Yippeeeee!
  • ytownfootball
    No, a 9 day lay-off shouldn't effect their play :rolleyes:

    Having Turner on your team guarantees you can expect the un-expected, and that includes a trip further in the tourny than you might think. Afterall, he launched a game winner with .2 clicks on the clock from 42 feet and a hand in his face.

    The game and the struggles Ohio State had with UM do not mean shit. History has proven otherwise.

    You better hope this was the only bad game they play in this tournament.

    Another bad game and they may not be as lucky as they were today.
  • ytownfootball
    ...we must have the Audacity of Hope"-

    Yeah, well so it goes with every tourny game.

    Hmmm, then YOU would AGREE that 'Cuse, Kansas and UK don't deserve a 1 seed since they also struggled vs inferior teams? Oh wait...those don't count because they are not OSU! lol

    Can't wait to hear your spin on this one!
  • Automatik
    Good call on UK winning by 20. lol

    Right on with me saying OSU would win by 15.

    You're missing the point. OSU 2-1 this year against UM. Almost means nothing. You're teams season is over....mine is not. Enjoy those sour grapes.

    lol @ people saying OSU isn't that good because they barely beat Michigan. Let's not forget that they did win a share of the conference crown and have the best player in the nation.

    Just like when people were saying 06-07 OSU was overrated and wouldn't make it much further after almost losing to Xavier in the tourney. Yeah, I'm pretty sure they won a few more games after that and made it to the title game.

    Does Ohio State need to play better? Sure they do. But I'm not sure why some of you guys come on here acting like you are very surprised it was a close game. Close games happen in conference tourneys. Heck sometimes even the good teams lose. (Syracuse, Villanova yesterday)

    Like Lavin was saying Michigan was desperate. They had nothing to lose, nothing to save energy or focus for. Their focus was completely on Ohio State and Ohio State was probably more worried about the next game/NCAA tourney.
  • mallymal614
    I'm a huge Ohio State fan and maybe we could have did better, but let's give credit when credit is due. Michigan played hard! Sims did his thing in the first half and Harris took over in the second. Sometimes that is just how things go.

    Turner is the man

    THIS

    Let's put the screaming at michigan stuff to rest. Cause after watching it numerous times it does appear he was yelling at the scorers table to count it (look at hand movement). Remember he started this right after the official blew their whistles.

    After watching this enough times...I don't think Matta was yelling at anyone in particular...he was just flat out pumped up and emotional! I believe that was the extent of it to be honest.

    No sour grapes. My team's season was over weeks ago! ;)
