NCAA Sweet 16: (2) Ohio State vs. (6) Tennessee

• mallymal614

  Simmons has been playing okay in lighty's absents. He hasn't done much, but he isn't hurt the team either.

  Haven't watched OSU this year, but from what it looks like they are thin, but they can really shoot the ball from deep. Buford Diebler Turner have a real nice stroke. They are going to need to hit those shots because Tennessee is out-rebounding them pretty bad early.

  I think they're letting Tennesse's defenders block more which helps them get back in position after Turner, especially, gains a little bit or gets the head past the torso to be official about it

  OSU has to do a much better job of rebounding...TENN is getting too many 2nd and 3rd chance shots. Simmons has made some bone head plays also...Need to have our best 5 stay out of foul trouble in the 2nd half!

  Simmons with his 3RD 3!!!!!

  Buckeyes are hitting some shots but they're going to need 80-90
  
  I don't know
  
  not real deep

  Diebler is getting eaten alive on D and Turner looks awful.
  
  2nd half they need Diebler on the bench with Simmons in because he's actually showed up.

  If I here that announcer say "That's his game" one more time I'm gonna kill a baby owl.

  Fuckin Simmons
• Midstate01

  

  Wow simmons!!
  
  Isn't amazing how teams hit 3's against us. They're the worst 3 point shooting team in the sec.. But not today!!!
• mallymal614

  Once Lighty gets back in the game 2nd half, we should run away from these boys. Simmons is replacing him well offensively, but Lighty will lock one of these Tennessee guards/forwards up.

  It is also the third time Raftery has said, "that's his game".

  In fairness, he has Simmons pegged. Jacking up a shot as soon as he touches the ball is his game.
  
  Thankfully he's making them tonight.

  Diebler is playing ok
  
  Prince is quicker and more athletic
  
  what can you do but keep working and try to do your best, you're going to give up some

  Where does one find a baby owl?
• mallymal614

  Why didn't Lauderdale try to block that last shot?

  42-39 OSU
  
  at the half
• Midstate01

  

  Put lauderdale at the back on the zone!!! So he can swat that shit!!
• thedynasty1998

  

  Diebler giving up a layup to end half.
  
  Got to feel good as an OSU fan Lighty, Turner and Diebler aren't playing their best and you have the lead at half.
• Fab1b

  

  Very tough half Bucks need to rebound better!!
• THE4RINGZ

  

  Halftime adjustments. Which coach does a better job?
• lhslep134

  

  I'm very impressed by Prince so far. And Maze as well.
• Midstate01

  

  I think we played ok at best and we are up 3. I feel pretty comfortable. Just gotta take some of that dribble drive away.

  Well considering Matta is a terrible in game coach, I'd say yall fucked
• mallymal614

  I'm actually feeling good about the bucks. We didn't play that well and still up. Now that we got a feel for them and will have lighty back, we should make a second half run. Plus with the way Simmons is playing, Matta may trust him to play more minutes for someone who may be tired.
