OSU @ Arizona

[Chairman of the Board]

I was wondering the same thing. I used to hate the guy but gotta say he's looked a lot better the past few weeks. Ahmed has had some atrocious minutes today

To his credit, he's gotten better. Must be hurt.

Super impressed with Lloyd and how well coached his team is. In an era of guys just wanting to jack up 3s and play hero ball, they are disciplined on both ends of the floor and make it a point to attack the rim on offense.

The Arizona defense is tremendous. They don't take any time off.

Clary is shooting 29.9 percent from 3 point land.

Didn’t expect to win but would have been nice to carry some positive momentum forward after the BYU game but instead we get run out of the gym.

Somehow I Coleman averaged 13 ppg at Seton Hall. He can barely dribble at OSU

 

[Tulley]

Sickening to lose a conference game by 40 and no I don’t care if it’s against the #1 ranked team. Cmon Steve you obviously didn’t have them ready to go after an emotional win.

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Ouch, horrible game.

Take us off the bubble. We are so unserious. I can handle losing to good teams...Not what I just watched.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

We have a lot of winnable games coming up, but the problem is most of them are on the road.
Starting with Arizona State this week. Yes we won at Utah, but there were about as bad as the league gets.

Tuned in just in time for the scoring drought. No ball movement, no player movement, no boxing out. No wonder we are getting trounced. Foul differential not withstanding

I saw more movement at my granny’s knitting club when I visited her at the retirement village over the holidays.

Absolute chaos.

Those ladies’ hands were flying left to right, right to left—needles clicking like a high-speed factory line. I half expected a pit crew to jump in.

Honestly? Mesmerizing.

This OSU team? Not so much.

So yeah—at this point, I’m ready to book OSU Basketball vs. Granny’s Knitting Club.

Neutral court. No mercy.

I like the ladies’ ball movement and hand speed. Easy Vegas money, baby.

8 conference games left, go 4-4 we’ll be squarely on the bubble and need to do work in the B12 tournament. Go 5-3 and we’re in the tournament.

It’s a given you have to beat TCU and WVU at home. If you can go 2-2 in those mostly winnable road games (ASU, Colorado, Cincinnati and UCF) that gets you to 8. Then it comes down to either picking off a third road game, or upsetting KU or Houston at home to get to 9.

It starts Tuesday. ASU is 12-11 overall, very mediocre. A game a tournament team should win.
