Insane? Unfortunatley, having watched this team all season, not really. :-/ First game since 2004 they didn't hit a 3pt shot. Even early in game, I knew OSU was in trouble after missing easy opportunities to score. Missed dunk, layup and traveling on a 4-1 break. MSU home Sunday will be interesting. Certainly not confident although MSU isn't playing well either.Laley23;1586314 wrote:OSU didn't hit a shot outside of 10 feet.

Folks, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the men's basketball team isn't very good. (Kyle has the full autopsy report on the Indiana game over here.) Thad Matta squeezing 22 wins out of this team is a minor miracle akin to squeezing blood from a stone. It's frustrating because the team is filled with likable guys. It's definitely not for lack of effort; the talent simply isn't there. They've struggled without a consistent scorer, and it's not like DeShaun Thomas or Jared Sullinger is walking through that door before the tournament.

Yea, insane. Quote the 3-pt line all you want, but that's 19'9. OSU didn't make a shot unless they were HALFWAY!! I wasn't using 10 feet as exaggeration, their longest make was literally, 10 feet.centralbucksfan;1586418 wrote:Insane?

I may have missed something in a previous post...but it isnt 19'9" any more in college....Laley23;1586484 wrote:Yea, insane. Quote the 3-pt line all you want, but that's 19'9.

True. Which makes it even more incredible.thavoice;1586502 wrote:I may have missed something in a previous post...but it isnt 19'9" any more in college....
Actually, when you think about it, its really not. The midrange game has been gone for years since the 3pt shot has come in. Everything in this day and age, is long range, or in the paint/driving to the basket. The 15ft jumper is fairly non existant in the game today.Laley23;1586577 wrote:True.

Wait, What? I am confused by this post.SportsAndLady;1586587 wrote:OSU hasn't gone a game without a 3 pointer in a decade. When that happens again this year, it's really not incredible at all.
That's what happens when you play high school teams in the non-conference.vball10set;1586611 wrote:The Men's 2013-2014 Basketball Season Distilled Into One Graphic

The scheduling needs to change. Had they even played a decent non-conference schedule, people wouldn't be so shocked by them losing 8 games. This team was never as good at its record.
No, Classy thought they would lose like 3 games and be a 1 seed lol.Automatik;1586617 wrote:lol...change? It was one fucking year with a weak OOC schedule. If they had a stronger one or not, it doesn't matter...they would still suck in the end.
The 2015 B10 schedule is out, no word on the OOC games.
Also, anyone with a functioning brain could tell OSU wasn't as good as their early perfect record.

I'll admit, early on I thought they would ride their defense and maybe develop some kind of identity on offense. It just didn't happen. I didn't expect them to be this bad.Laley23;1586620 wrote:No, Classy thought they would lose like 3 games and be a 1 seed lol.
You did catch the "functioning brain" part, didn't you?Laley23;1586620 wrote:No, Classy thought they would lose like 3 games and be a 1 seed lol.
When you were saying they didn't make a 3 point shot, cbf didn't think it was that incredible. I was mocking him.Laley23;1586613 wrote:Wait, What? I am confused by this post.
