Fuckig Illinois lol. Indiana had a VERY small chance. With osu losing, that slim hope is even smaller. I'll go with osu 86-73 Indiana

I think IU is in for an ass wooping Sunday afternoon. I expect OSU to come out of the gates ready. Especially after the loss to Ill. And they have 4 days of preparation. IU has 2 days. IU has played ONE good team on the road, MSU, and got beat by 15. OSU on the other hand, has been just about unbeatable on their home court. 35 straight I believe. I don't go out on a limb very often, but I expect a 10+pt win for OSU.

These are the games that OSU rolled teams in last year. I look for them to do to Indiana, what they done to Wisky last year after a close loss in Madison. Bucks by 20+.

87-60, OSU.

IU looked very flat last night. Either they took Minny for granted, was looking ahead, or just had one of those nights.......who knows. They just were a step slow, lethargic and didnt get to rebounds. Every time they had a chance to really get it real close they turned it over, missed a shot, etc.


OSU is the better team. They ran into foul trouble. Indiana will struggle on WalMart Court and they will want revenge. It gets UGLY early.

It may get ugly, but it ain't gonna get 30 pt ugly. IU is a good solid team. Ugly in this game would be 20pt at the most.

In my know-nothing mind, this will be a crossroads game for the Buckeyes.

Assuming Homer stays in check in Bloomington, one can think Ohio State should have no issues against a solid Indiana team.

However, if the Buckeyes have to battle the refs as well as the boards, then this could just about ruin what woulda, coulda, shoulda been a banner year at Ohio State.

Another BIG loss could (will?) just about write the Buckeyes out of any realistic shot at a BIG championship and may be enough to deflate any hopes of making a deep run in March Madness.

Let's hope this is the game that sparks Ohio State's run at a BIG championship.

COLUMBUS -- Ohio State standout Jared Sullinger blames himself for the fifth-ranked Buckeyes' most recent loss.
"There were times in the Illinois game where I just kind of took a break on the defensive end instead of the offensive end, and it cost us," Sullinger said, referring to a 79-74 setback on Tuesday. "Honestly, I was one of those people who played hard when they wanted to. I have to stop that."
Sullinger promises to recommit himself and make up for that lapse Sunday when the Buckeyes host No. 7 Indiana in a big rematch.

I don't think anyone can deny that they play physical, and often too physical. Refs aren't necessarily doing anything wrong by not allowing it to be jungleball, though the crew they got for Indiana the lady time was ticky tack in general.

I really wanna get excited for this game. But I cant. Dont see it ending well, and it will be a cherry for a bad week for IU...and after it looked so promising with Sheehey returning vs Minny.

Oh well, go GGGGGG-MEN! Love the 2 TV set-up. Hopefully if the IU game is awful the NFL isnt.
