Sims scores down low no matter who’s guarding him except for Thabeet cuz it is a bad matchup for Sims.

What a terrible night for a storm to come through and knock my power off. Only got to see like 1 minute of the game but glad to hear they won.
Go Blue!

Get some rest Dylan. It can wait. That game was a nailbiter. Even when we were up 12 I was nervous. WHATAP, I agree. We have guts on this team. Dang they play with abandon. If we play like this the rest of the way, we win out and win 2 B10 Tourney games at least. Therein lies the problem. We aren’t consistent. But hey, we can hope!

No matter what happens the last 2 games and the tourney, this season has been a blast. I am proud to call this my team. Beilein has made this team fun. No we don’t win them all and no, we don’t even win all the ones we should. But we won some that we aren’t supposed to and we play a fun style. This season has been more fun than any of Amakers. We never seemed to win games down the stretch with his teams. At least this one competes all the way to the end.

Wisconsin is next. Let’s get ‘em while we’re hot!

Wow, that’s like 9 spots! Back in the RPI Top 50 with a vengeance.

Although it inflates OSU’s Top 50 RPI record by 2 games.

Updated RPI: 46 on WarrenNolan. SOS is 11.

Hell of a game tonight, post game might have to wait until tomorrow. But I’ll shoot for tonight.

Hightower has been quicker on the whistle as of late, I’ve noticed that.

Don’t expect to see Sims tear it up against Wisconsin though. Its one thing to do that against Purdue when JuJuan Johnson and Nemaja Calasan are on the bench but against Krabbenhoft and Co the layups won’t come nearly as easily.

i noticed several plays when merrit had the ball at the top of the key and they had 2 guys rotate over on him leaving deshawn open for a second or 2, i was thinking it would be real nice to have morris there you could get the ball over those defenders cause those would have been easy dunks….hopefully other people saw that………deshawn must have read raiderfan and my blog from earlier about him being able to dominate every game………

The reason that looked like an ACC game was the officiating. They didn’t let the teams get away with hacking and shoving, so the game opened up for the skilled players. That’s why manny was so effective during out OOC schedule and so mediocre in the big ten. Same with Peedi.

Where has that D. Sims been? That was one heck of a performance. Awesome win!

Yeah Chris, I agree. For some reason I feel like we will have an edge in the intestinal fortitude department going into these last couple games. Lee plays just so gosh darn hard, and its hopefully beginning to be contagious amongst everyone else.
