Na. That kid absolutely ate Rutgers alive TWICE!

Who cares what he did vs Rutgers

 

[RUTBAY1]

B1G crapping the bed right now.

 

[bac2therac]

Oh to be on the Ohio State board right now

 

[Roy_Faulker]

Want the refs from the Ohio State game tonight… Lots of hand fighting and few fouls called.

 

[koko2315]

Pastner in the face shield bothers me for some reason

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

OSU would have won going away with the big white kid with the tats who absolutely ate Rutgers twice for lunch.

 

[bac2therac]

Ohio State finished 5th in the Big 10 yet was a 2 seed

The B1G refs did not do the players any favors by calling a gazillion fouls all season. These refs are letting them go at it and the big ten looks weak and the other teams look scrappy and tough.

 

[Scarlet Beach]

Oral Roberts deserved that win and the best player on the court today was not on Ohio State. Michigan State losing last night- no big deal- those are 50-50 games among teams that barely made the Tourney. But yeah, this is not a good start for the Big 10, but hopefully things change tonight!

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

2 more teams to watch Cleveland St vs Houston, EWU vs Kansas as potential high seed upset. Cleveland St., lost @ Toledo by 9 and @ Ohio st by 6.'EWU, @ Wash St. by 3, lost @ Arizona by 3, lost @ Oregon by 17, lost @ St. Mary by 5.

ACU vs Texas is another potential played @ TTU and @ Arkansas close.

OSU doesn't lose with Luther Mohammad

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

Let's be real, folks. OSU going down to the Flying Falwells would be a big chef's kiss.

Edit: OSU will win this.

D'oh! Call me Nostradumbass.

In any case, I'm pleased that OSU lost. OSU can take a flying **** at a rolling donut.

 

[bethlehemfan]

9-18 from the stripe. 5-23 from 3. 16-6 turnovers. That will get you bounced most nights. That’s some ugly shiiitte there

 

[hinson32]

Oh my Oregon State!

UCLA, Oregon State. Conference of Champions.

they did all the things that we hope RU does not do tonight

this is how you lose on the big stage...not prepared mentally to compete, not matching the opponents intensity, careless with the ball, missing free throws and bricklaying

Yep 100%.

 

[RUBlackout]

Drake getting first win in 50yra in ncaa

ORU first time in 47yra

RU first time in 38yrs??!!

lets keep the trend going

 

[bac2therac]

Sister Jean moving on

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Loyola has Norris who looks like he’s 12 years old and Krutwig who looks like he’s 50.

 

[UMRU]

B1G crapping the bed right now.

How does Ohio State basketball = the Big Ten?

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

The 2 other games, where Rutgers/Clemson is being played in Bankers Life Fieldhouse are the Arkansas/Colgate and Oregon St/Tennessee, if that is all that important.

I'm starting to think Pike does certain coaching moves, win or lose, during the conference schedule to prepare the team the way refs will call a game at MM.

 

[RUTBAY1]

Two B1G blue bloods (MSU and OSU) out in the first round. One of them a B1G tourney finalist.

Maybe this will wake us up for tonight and we won't get off to another slow start.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Interesting commentary about how Beavers got it together by pulling team aside and explaining everyone's role as team seemed split in terms of such. Changed all and now their in.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Let's go Liberty

 

[bac2therac]

First Oregon State NCAA win since 1982..39 years

 

[RUBlackout]

That’s right...it’s a trend right now..let’s keep it rolling

Bodes well for us then

 

[BossNJ]

A lot of sloppy play early in these games. Hopefully our fans don’t overreact, because we should expect some sloppy play early in our game.

Rutgers fans overreact??? Never

 

[krup]

I am wishing I laid more than $5 on the Oral Roberts- Oregon St parlay I put in.

 

[Blitz8RU]

Oral Roberts and Colgate...

A lot of dental schools playing basketball... 🗑

 

[bac2therac]

Liberty playing really well

 

[Ronnie_B]

That Geico commercial with Mutombo might be the funniest commercial ever.

 

[knight82]

Will our game have a separate thread?

 

[RW90]

Can we just move the clocks ahead two hours? The wait is frigging killing me.

 

[bac2therac]

yep it should be an all time classic

 

[bac2therac]

I am oddly at ease

 

[shields]

Wisconsin playing pretty well right now.

MSU was in a playin game. I don’t count that for much.
