OSU in the process of a collapse even worse than what happened at the RAC. Illinois is going bananas.

They're also on this run, amazingly, without Kofi, who fouled out around the 4 minute mark. I think Ill was down 13 at that point.

Absolutely brutal. OSU ices the game if that guy simply catches the ball. Shades of our Houston game where everything that could go wrong is for OSU.

I can't decide who I want to win. Doesn't really matter for us at all but I would sort of like to see OSU survive.

Costly loss of Illini title hopes

I guess Illinois winning would have been better for our slight hopes for a double bye but I think that's the least of our problems lol.

This is now Purdue’s year if they seize the moment …they take care of. Business , including revenge came ar Wisconsin , and win big ten outright with a one seed in ncaa tourney in sight if they win the big ten tourney …. with a 30-4 record

A potentially big prize for them if they can get rhe Too seed in rhe MW….whixh for them , ia a potential huge reward wirb the possibility of playing in their backyard in the first two rounds in Indiapolis, and again being in thair backyard in Chicago for the regionals

They have It set up for them to have a major advantage to have a run to the final four if they take control right now

The first four positions with Wisconsin. Purdue Illinois and Ohio State are now firmly in place for the double byes.Ohio State now has a two game advantage over Rutgers in the loss column for the fourth position with three games remaining.Purdue can still switch with Wisconsin for the top position.The race is now for the 5-8 slots.Rutgers should retain the fifth slot with two wins.Michigan State,Iowa and Michigan will battle for the 6-8 slots .

But tired legs excuse here..smfh
Both of these teams were a step slower than us when we played. OSU was dead legged down the stretch. If you ever played the game you know how important it is to have spring In Your step. It affects everything but for us it’s mainly our D. Home crowds give us that energy down the stretch. Away games with BIG reffing makes it much much more difficult to find that energy. Everyone’s legs are tired right now. Kudos to OSU finding a way to win at Illinois. Something they could not do at the RAC.

Refs would never allow Kofi to foul out against RU
It’s time to change TV channels when you find yourself officiating the game from your LazyBoy. Nothing worse than watching a game on TV with a friend who jabbers away about the officiating.
