Now look, we all know if Ohio State played Wisconsin, they would win 99 out of 100 games(Wisconsin would probably win the Big East though). It seemed to me OSU just gave up and let Wisconsin win so OSU could win the national championship. This is the same school that lost to TCU in the rose bowl, so they can't be any good.

Thoughts?

Umm, damn bro. We just watched the #1 team in the nation just give up. What a shame, I think they are good enough to go undefeated.

If they would have been flat from the start, then you could have a point. But pushing the lead to 15 points and Matta playing starters significant minutes showed that they wanted this one. Wisconsin just wanted it more in the last 10 minutes.

Wisconsin was hotter than a two dollar pistol. They made the shots and OSU didn't. I saw no lack of effort from OSU.

I think they lost to honor Bobby Knight's legacy, he is an OSU Alum.

This is one of the times that I think Sleeper is actually joking.

Granted he knows very, very little about basketball. He might be serious.

WTF. OMG you stupid person.

Ohio State did not willingly abandon its lead today. That's ridiculous. They lost due to a magic trick that occurred with 10:56 to play in the second half. If you look in the vicinity of the Wisconsin 'W' on the Kohl Center floor at this juncture of the game, you will see Jordan Taylor briefly shape-shift into a combination of Tiny Archibald and Wilt Chamberlain's headband. An eye blink later, Taylor reoccupies his normal appearance. But, if you pay special attention to his shot-arc trajectory and dribbling patterns from this point forward, it is obvious that Tiny is still playing. A similar event happened to the Moron Mountain Monstars in a game against Bugs Bunny. Ohio State will still win the championship.
