If you don't watch Ohio State every game I could understand it, but I've watched almost every game of his career and there is not a player I've seen that makes scoring look as easy as him. He's the definition of being born to put the ball in the net.

He's shown glimmers of hope. Like the last game. But the fact he is a scorer is more important IMO than his defense.

I am in this camp. Better than Smith's inconsistency and irrational confidence.

Depends on the game. I think against a team like IU, OSU isn't going to win a shootout (as evidenced by today) so the plan was to win by defense.

This was the Indiana that the pollsters ranked as the preseason #1. IF they can sustain this type of play, they'll be cutting down the nets in April.

Watching now. I know the score though, since I work with OSU fans lol.

Imprssive numbers for the big 3 for IU. I cant beleive how effective Zeller and Oladipo continue to be. Scoring without forcing anything.

IU wins....and both announcers said 42 times that IU should still be #1, I don't have too much trouble with that but losing to an unranked opponent with the worst execution ever in the final seconds smells like #2 to me.

Well, its late, and since I knew the score while watching I didnt pay as close attention to every little thing and FF through a couple timeouts and replays when there was a dead ball. One thing I did notice, and a reason I prefer regular season games be on ESPN than CBS for my team...CBS does all their dumb promos and shit and we NEVER see replays of seemingly meaningless plays, like fouls. I thought a few were worthy of a replay.

Anyway, that was probably IUs most complete and best game of the season. Purdue was better, but it was also Purdue. Minny's first half was the best basketball any team has played this year, but it was only 1 half. This was the best IU has looked for 40 minutes yet.

Cody Zeller was utilized in a way Ive wanted for 3 months. They got him OFF the block a lot and let him use his dribbling and shooting ability.

Finally, Burke is good, but Oladipo is my #1 right now. Doesnt every take a bad shot, really. Plays amazing defense and does everything all around. Impacts the game SO much for someone who doesnt have the ball constantly. 26 points and 8 rebounds. On 10 shots. Remarkable.

I hate CBS basketball. I want to watch Saturday games, not Sunday afternoon games where the whole student section is hungover and quiet. College Basketball is meant to be played on Saturdays, it is a travesty that a team like OSU has 0 home Saturday games
