RU vs Ohio State 1/23/22 game thread

[ScarletteK80]

1 pm @ RAC. On ESPN2. Won't be around to see game so keep the thread going. Unless, it is a disaster.

 

[hoquat63]

I am now here - I expect disaster, but hope I will have something positive to post.

RU up 10-9 at 4:35, OSU going to foul line when game resumes

 

[RUcrazee]

Our backs are against the wall as far as making anything out of this season. Their start is good so far,.....have to keep it up.

 

[hoquat63]

After first 19-22 as OSU hits a 3
Highlighlight for RU four point play by Petree.
OSU press causing lots of problems 3 turnovers so far.

 

[RUcrazee]

With all the guards we put on the floor together, why can't we handle their press? These young ladies are not being coached to break the press to score. They are just trying to get it across the halfcourt line. That type of thinking against the press gets a team eaten up.

 

[RUcrazee]

And they have to stay close to three point shooters, especially Mikesell

 

[RUcrazee]

Awa and Osh gives the opponents an advantage on the boards. We need a true post in the game at all times. This is what i don't understand. Why Sidibe instead of Walker or Cornwell?

 

[RUcrazee]

If he's gonna use Sidibe, it should be to give Osh a breather from time to time.

 

[wngarbarini]

The rout is on. It was nice while it lasted

 

[hoquat63]

Now 22-32, press is killing RU. 6 turnovers to only 1 for OSU. Also OSU 6/12 from 3. RU 1/3. OSU has had 29 shots to only 18 for RU

 

[hoquat63]

5:38 left 2nd

 

[RUcrazee]

When you look at this game, you can see we have just as much talent as OSU. It's all on Tim's coaching. Did he forget about Lasha again?

 

[RUcrazee]

WHHYYYYYYY????? Sidibe again for Tyia. That is when we fell behind by 10 because they controlled the glass.

 

[RUcrazee]

Petree scores all those points in the first quarter and sees no time in the second??? This is what I mean about Tim throwing the game.

Escort Tim out of the gym now!! Don't even wait til the end of the game.

 

[ea_1]

tOSU up by 10 again, 38-28 under two in the half. The radio stream is behind the live stats, so I read about what happens before I hear about it.

 

[RUcrazee]

Good things happen when Lasha is n the game. She and Osh are the only ones who put pressure on the defense. Shug sometimes.

 

[hoquat63]

32-38 at half. Brown with 11, Petree 9. Foul line keeping it close RU 11/13 OS 4/6.

 

[Rufan07]

I just tuned in but does anyone see Sakima on the bench? I hope she didn’t enter the transfer portal as well!

 

[hoquat63]

Stunt dogs for half time show

 

[ea_1]

RU closes to within six at the half, 38-32. Turnovers costing the Scarlet Knights. FT, as indicated earlier by another poster, keeping them in the game. Overall, not bad. Overall, an improvement compared to previous B1G games this season.
Fingers crossed.

 

[RUcrazee]

Sakima is on the bench. Why she doesn't play in front of Awa in relief of Tyia, IDK.

 

[RUcrazee]

Osh and Lasha getting to the line.

 

[Rufan07]

Sakima is on the bench. Why she doesn't play in front of Awa in relief of Tyia, IDK.

I didn’t see her in the huddle and got worried.

I didn’t see her in the huddle and got worried.

Sakima is not dressed for the game, she is in sweats.

 

[RUcrazee]

Sakima is not dressed for the game, she is in sweats.

That makes me feel a little bit better. Hopefully, it's nothing serious. Still could use Chyna.

 

[RUcrazee]

Good thing is, Tyia's playing pretty well today.

 

[hoquat63]

Ty just picked up 3rd foul. 46-50 3:56 in 3rd

 

[hoquat63]

Pretty sure that should be a shot clock violation

 

[RUcrazee]

Need a timeout.

 

[hoquat63]

49-59 after 3

 

[hoquat63]

Sorry fat fingers and small keyboard 48-59

 

[RUcrazee]

Could have used a timeout when OSU started to go on that last run. The press had them discombobulated again and Shug tried to beat it by herself on back to back trips. The game gets away from us and they never call timeout.

 

[ea_1]

RU had the score within four in the 3Q before misses, fouls, and TOs closed the quarter.

 

[RUcrazee]

hOw do they keep getting open threes??

 

[hoquat63]

RU showing some fight. Timeout OU with 6:18 left 58-66

 

[RUcrazee]

Playing with purpose ........FINALLY!!! Will it be enough though?

 

[hoquat63]

hOw do they keep getting open threes??

10/24. Their #4 is killing us

 

[hoquat63]

Playing with purpose ........FINALLY!!! Will it be enough though?

Probably not, but except for turnovers they have played pretty well- shooting 51%

 

[ea_1]

Osh Brown getting kudos from radio guys. And ranking OSU's proficient three-point shooting as #1 factor and RUs TOs as #2 in the difference in the score.
