(Those were the right calls) The one the really missed was when IU's kid missed the three and they called him for a hold when the OSU player fell down while trying to block the shot. I'm not even remotely a fan of either of these teams (I can't stand OSU), but Ohio State outplayed Indiana and deserved to win.
No doubt OSU deserved to win, as any team should when they shoot 76% in the second half. They took 21 shots, made 16 of them..not to mention 7 or 8 threes in the half.

The guy took Diebler's legs out while he was an airborne shooter, that was when I started this thread. Easy call.

The flop a minute later by the Indiana kid shooting a 3-pointer after landing, now that deserved an Oscar as pointed out by the announcers.

Yup, and you sound like nothing more than a fanboy showing up now since there won't be a March for you.

Well, who can disagree with experts like them?

Really? I'm skipping March? sweet, one month closer to graduation. I'll take it.

Believe me, we as a fan base got over the lack of a post season a long time ago. All is well here in Bloomington!

You............have seen this year's basketball team, right? Things may be a lot of things in Bloomington, but "well" is not one of them.

We're fine. We came into this season with no expectations, just wanting to see competitive basketball. Sure the W's aren't there, but how much can you really expect with this many freshman and this many walk-ons?

How's things in Lawrence by the way?
