Third time in 10 years a Thad Matta coached team knocked off the nation's last undefeated team? St. Joe's, Illinois, Michigan.

Great win for Ohio State. Hopefully gives them some more confidence.
I wasn't as nervous. He has a good stroke and usually a confident player.

At first glance you might think Michigan lost this from the way they played the 1st 10 minutes. But they lost it the last 5 minutes. Had the momentum, and then for some reason I don't think they shot anything but a contested, hurried 3 point shot that whole time. :confused:

Anyway, not surprised by the outcome, but surprised by the start. It might actually be good to lose, and get that pressure off their back. Just wish it weren't against OSU.

Burke with a pedestrian day. 15-4-4 on 4-13 shooting while abusing no one.

OSU gets 19 wins before MSU games, @ Wisky, and 5 more top 15 matchups.

If it comes down to it, I think they beat Illinois at home the final game of the year. They can definitely play with MSU and the only Minny game is @ the Schott.

Correct. Actually was thinking about that earlier. And one other year he had the last unbeaten team. Pretty amazing.

Huge win for Ohio State. Thompson had some big plays, Lenzelle had a ton of rebounds even though he only scored like 6 points, Craft was fantastic on defense, and Deshaun did his thing. Wasn't writing Ohio State off yet but today showed they do have potential Final Four potential again. Needed to get a big win to get momentum.

I thought Burke would shoot a little better, but overall played about as well as I expected. Rebounded well and passed well. Michigan didnt play as well as I expected (awesome for the Hoosiers! lol).

I think only 1 person thought Burke would abuse Craft, Wildcats.

I gave predictions and stuff, but never thought he would dominate him offensively.

He had very very few open looks. Craft was awesome on him today.

Which I expected, but I also expected him to make a few. He missed a lay-up (block) and a transition pull up that he doesnt usually miss. Craft had nothing to do with those.

Craft did slow him down on the layup which allowed Scott to catch up for the block.

He made him go left and to the other side of the basket. Gave Scott time to get there.

As soon as I posted that, I knew someone would have that answer. lol

I think you both understand what I meant. It wasnt the halfcourt offense. I figured Burke would get double digits from transition alone.

Yeah he is. I actually liked the Chris Paul analysis. I remember him at Wake as a Frosh. Very similar in the open floor.
