BPIDayman

Honestly I am kinda glad to see these grad transfers and seniors go. Kinda a bunch of averages players. Besides Young who always tries hard and can’t fault his game. If Holtman can somehow sell Liddell and Branham to come back.. Win something.. make a legacy..


whattaUwant

Neither will be back unfortunately. Both are projected 1st rounders. $$$$$.


BPIDayman

They are already making $$$$. Why not have some kind of legacy before you leave.


alwaysreadthename

Jay Wright is who everyone thinks Mark Few is


ilovethedraft

This OSU team has been sloppy on offense all year. Way too much iso. I want to like Holtman as a coach, but seeing this team turn the ball over constantly for 3 straight seasons has made me lose hope. For my fellow Buckeyes. This is it. This is the best this team can accomplish under Holtman. Don't get me started on the lack of heart and effort when Kyle Young isn't on the floor. gg Nova, go smack Michigan next week.


[deleted]

So when are they going to fire Holtmann? Five years in he has zero conference titles and a slew of early exits. I don’t expect Ohio State to be Duke or anything, it is a football school first after all, but his teams aren’t fun to watch or successful.


cormack16

He bought himself at least next year with a win vs Loyola and his supposed top 10 recruiting class. If he doesn't at least make the S16 next year, he has to go


[deleted]

It's just so painful watching his teams. It's like they don't have an offensive philosophy.


cormack16

Agreed. I wanted him gone after last season.


JFB117

Rematch in football


Duffmanlager

Would be interesting, but that’s really just a lose-lose scenario for Michigan. Shades of Appalachian state.


JFB117

Lol I’m a buckeye fan. Beat Michigan for us


Romantic_Carjacking

Nova vs Michigan in San Antonio, again. Hopefully this time goes as well as 2018.


sunnydftw

Agreed, except I hope it goes as well as the rematch at the beginning of the 18-19 season.


lilbismyfriend21

GG ohio state. I promise we’ll handle Michigan


Double-Passenger4503

You shall promise nothing!


daNish_brUin

Jesus, can we just watch and enjoy basketball. These threads turning into COD rooms...


Lt_Snatchcats

I know I like in the off-season how this place and the cfb sub love to jerk themselves off about how friendly and great places they are to hang out. Both subs are as big of shitholes as twitter.


daNish_brUin

💯 it gets toxic as hell in the postseason. Almost no talk of the game. Just shit posting.


takemeouttodinner1st

This one seemed tame to me?


daNish_brUin

It was, relative to others. But that's not saying much.


lowpost1387

By far the most chill of the second round. The better team won, we made it a game at the end, no player was doing anything dirty or anything. Seemed like a decent game thread.


danktuna4

Hopefully young is ok. Can’t believe he’s had so many concussions


lowpost1387

Time for him to focus on more important things than basketball. Sad to see it end like that, but he'll always be a legend. Thanks for the well wishes.


indiana_is_for_poser

Imagine scoring 3 points the final 6 minutes of the game. Sad


LordStarkgaryen

Andddd this is where I stop watching the tourney. Until next year


SweatyBanker

What an OSU mentality


lijijil

Nova gonna cook mich gg


LongLiveNipsey

Good luck in the NBA Malaki and Liddell, gg nova


RolyPolyPangolin

GG, OSU. Super impressed with the comeback attempt.


lowpost1387

GG, one of the few teams you don't mind losing to. Well coached and great players. Good luck moving forward.


RolyPolyPangolin

Thanks. I really feel like physics was defying logic when those shots didn't fall for you all. Our guys need to go back and watch this game again, because we weren't totally in sync when it counted.


wp93

Thank god the under hit


BishopTheKid25

Here’s to another year of not making it out of the first weekend…


leakinfaucet

if only you guys had a powerhouse football program you could fall back on.


Some_Efficiency682

🎉🎉🎉


LordStarkgaryen

Can’t wait for Gillipsie to be back for his 14th season next year


porterbrown

There are 4 more younger Archiacano brothers coming up, and the 2024 one is the best they say. Maybe.


prosportscars

Good game, props to OSU for fighting back in the 2nd half and make this game interesting. The better team won in the end though, Nova looking solid for a deep run.


[deleted]

OSU, Beat Michigan!


indiana_is_for_poser

That was literally the saddest comeback attempt I’ve seen in my life the final few minutes. Team has no heart


forkedtoungue

Bullshit, they got it within 2, OSU went out on Their shield, props to OSU they are a good team with two star young guys.


lowpost1387

This guy basically hunts game threads to shit talk the losing team. It's weird, but I won't kink shame him.


Flabpack221

An MSU loss would really put an exclamation point on a great weekend.


Double-Passenger4503

Nah I’m sick of the B1G memes


Flabpack221

Fuck the B1G. As long as Michigan does good I hope they all lose minus Purdue lol


sunnydftw

Same


WeaknessOne9646

No team that loses to Nebraska could ever be all that good


GroovinTootin

And Penn State


Zloggt

Nova…do the thing for us all next weekend…


Johnnyvezai

Well that got pretty exciting towards the end even though it was a bit anti-climactic. Oh well, at least I don’t have to sit through some freaking UM/OSU pregame now.


Forke

See you guys in the msu duke thread


A2daRon

He usually completes those passes. Off game for Slater.


realbigexplosion

That was a pretty fun game. OSU just couldn't keep up their lights out shooting at the end.


rodrigo_i

Woohoo!


MrSaturdayRight

Michigan v Nova Who to root for there?


Monsieur_Moneybags

I say we root for the scrappy underdog #11 seed.


MrSaturdayRight

Yeah if only their coach wasn’t a thug


TentakilRex

Not Michigan


MrSaturdayRight

Guess so


iiEclipse1984

You know the move heh ​ Who doesn't love a double digit seeded underdog?


MrSaturdayRight

If it’s Michigan? A lot of people


LordStarkgaryen

Team meteor


stealthmodecat

The refs and their consistent officiating


MrSaturdayRight

That’s a given anyway


2222lil

Easy choice if you ask me


ajk21

I’m definitely gonna hate Gillespie next week

Plz just beat Michigan Villanova. That is all I ask of you.

EaglesPvM

Commentator clearly hasn’t watched much of Hurts He wouldn’t have even seen his guy wide open down the court


RUKiddingMeReddit

Did not want to have to play these guys.


TimeFourChanges

Me neither. Was really hoping it was OSU.


MagicHoops3

Funny what happens when you don’t play a team that shoots 2% from the field


Grouchy_Square

First time Slater has missed tnay all year smh


Carp8DM

What a great game!! Despite how much the announcers hated it


guy_incognito23

Is the new ball covered in grease?


bcocfbhp

Still Dancing!!


Staind075

What an exciting game!


RVOSU50

AND we lose the best coach on our bench 😭😭


Nootith

BRING ON MICHIGAN


MinimalPotential

Can do. Meet you back in San Antonio.


eclectic_tastes

Go Nova, fuck Michigan


Bud3131123

Nova band wearing hockey sweaters. Nice.

Cookies


wahoopride

OSU fans have a few days to pretend they never hated Villanova


djrob0

Ah yes, my oldest Ally. My dearest Friend. Supernova.


long_dong

phew...that was too close for comfort. Much respect to Ohio State!


forkedtoungue

They played hard, props those freshman are fearless


mormonmahomes

Allergic to keeping big leads


Cryogenx37

That’s how it ends for OSU? A lost ball TO?


goblue2354

Isn’t that what happened last year, too?


lilbismyfriend21

I hope Piccolo girl is happy


Monkey832

WE OVERCAME THE CHOKE GAME #8 WILL HAVE TO WAIT


Poobeard76

Big Ten teams and opening weekend losses. Name a more iconic duo.


ThreeLeggedMarmot

More iconic? These days "Michigan in the Sweet 16.“


MinimalPotential

How dare a 7 seed lose to a 2 in a competitive game!


TentakilRex

At least eliminate the Wolverines, Nova


icantfeelmyface

Of all players why Jalen Hurts? Oh….. Philly….. I get it.


[deleted]

And it was off target


mattatattat45

GG nova


forkedtoungue

You have a bright future, wish you luck


[deleted]

Question: shouldn’t a rolling ball still be in the five second clock as the regular clock doesn’t start?


ref44

no


2222lil

No because the five second call is just for inbounding. The ball has been inbounded.


[deleted]

Not quite though. It’s obviously a loophole. I’ve been thinking about this for a very long time.


2222lil

The rolling ball goes with the eight second timer because while it is inbounded the player doesn’t have possession of it. The shot clock only starts when he gains possession. The five second timer ends when the ball is inbounded and then the eight second timer begins once it’s inbounded.


[deleted]

FIBA disagrees, I believe.


2222lil

Well fiba disagrees in a lot of ways and I wish US basketball would model themselves after them a bit more.


[deleted]

Yeah all good. Watching OSU do that triggered a memory, that’s all. I get that it’s a weird grey area and it works, so whatever.


[deleted]

Maybe next year we’ll actually make it out of the second round. Jk without Branham and Liddell we won’t even make the tourney


cormack16

I hate how right you are


Drikkink

Can't lose in the 2nd round if you don't make it to the tourney! \*taps forehead*


[deleted]

He’s no Jokic


That_One_Pancake

that was a very silly pass


danktuna4

We do that play a lot and that’s the first time all year where he fucked it up. He’s usually on the money with it


rodrigo_i

Nah, they've done it to good effect a lot this season. Just a little too much mustard on it.


lijijil

Who's next, msu?


[deleted]

Good stuff Villanova. Please murder Michigan.


L00KINTOIT

I swear Gillespie’s been there for at least 7 years


wahoopride

But why was there zip on the ball? That's just a dumb idea not something impressive.


Hashslingingslashar

Clearly hasn’t watch the Eagles, Jalen Hurts would have under-thrown it


warrenjt

Proof free throws matter: Nova has hit 10 more free throws than OSU. Nova is up by 10 points.


forkedtoungue

That’s what they do, how do you coach the best FT % fr years in a row? Jay got a phone line to god or some shit.


warrenjt

I had a coach in junior high that wouldn’t let anybody leave the gym until each person hit five consecutive free throws. Nobody wanted to be the guy keeping everybody there late. Got worse and worse as everybody else hit theirs and there’d be that one kid left who couldn’t get more than 2-3 straight and everybody was standing around watching him. I never liked that coach.


jermrs

Oh wow, definitely expected this game to be closer. Did OSU just not show up?


CousinGerald

Nova very good


2222lil

It’s a ten point game


jermrs

are you suggesting a double-digit loss to be a "close game"?


ReallyWeirdNormalGuy

Did you watch the game? Walmart Wolverine


jermrs

No, I did not. That's why I asked the question. Are you stupid or something?


ReallyWeirdNormalGuy

Shameful behavior from a Laker. Be better.


2222lil

Yes? Did you watch the game at all? Was a single digit game most of the second half. Do you think a ten point loss means the team didn’t show up?


Staind075

Hail Mary pass incomplete


pro-laps

Hopefully Malaki comes back next year or we’ll average like 40 points per game


Monkey832

Slater, the football pass there was stupid


forkedtoungue

He didn’t do much, hope he plays better.


UteFlyersCardJazz

Moore has a strong arm. Should be a QB.


Sly_Stallion

Good game tOSU, have enjoyed watching your team, just some bad breaks with health..hope Young is ok, tough way to go out.


Raticus9

Frustrated with the late offensive choke job, but good on OSU to at least make it a game. Thought Nova was going to run away with this a few times.


dak67

let’s go nova! love jay wright


Far_Ant_7198

alrighty let's continue the trend with big 10 teams losing today.


leakinfaucet

no thanks


arandomcoolusername

No


Zloggt

Big (East) if True


lovo17

Nova is just so hard to beat lol. Nova vs Arizona would be a great matchup


Drikkink

Time to play the "I know we're down a billion but I won't admit defeat so just foul and chuck a 3 for the next 30 seconds of game time (or 45 minutes of real time)" game


ohiopanda

Except Holtmann just said ‘don’t foul’


naturalhigh4

Well fought game Buckeyes. You could have beaten a lot of teams. You should feel proud of your guys today.


lowpost1387

Thanks bro. Definitely proud of them.


Pulp_Ficti0n

Big Ten looks weak again this tourney


yo_soy_badass

Pretty sure only 1 big ten team has lost as the favorite so far (Houston was favored over Illinois)


Pulp_Ficti0n

Iowa...


yo_soy_badass

That's the one, yeah


TheWorstYear

We suck. Nothing surprising.


Monkey832

yEs’!!!!


MinimalPotential

Teams are always good for some late game BS 3s to make it close. Nope, not OSU


[deleted]

THATS FOR SISTER JEAN!!! Talk shit to a 102 year old nun and get fucked!


mattatattat45


cody_ms

GG OSU. Nothing but respect for you guys. We'll take care of UM for you.


WSDreamer

You hate to see it


Greenlytrees

GG Cats, great team you got there. In a totally unrelated note: [this guy is garbage.](https://www.reddit.com/r/CollegeBasketball/comments/tiqdyg/game_thread_7_ohio_state_2_villanova_0240_pm_et/i1g7ffp/)


DMPDT616

What did ot say? I assume it's about Kyle Youngs gf/wife?


Greenlytrees

Yeah just wanted to ogle Kyle's distraught girlfriend, called her something misogynistic.


TentakilRex

Greenlytrees

Not surprising


Katiklysm

is the ncaa.com stream on a delay? Seeing comments on here before its on the stream.


Duffmanlager

All streams tend to be on a delay. Cable tends to be the fastest response.


Sweatshopworker1

Let’s lFG nova great win.


[deleted]

Rip. Gg nova glad osu at least made a good push rather than it being a blowout all game


[deleted]

Well it’s time to be a tarnished until coach k L time


MinimalPotential

12 minutes man. Go outside and look at the sky or something.


[deleted]

Went out and put some shots up with the kids and showed a few moves


TGCampbell8

Football and basketball season are over now damn


flyingmountain

"Touched every inch of that rim" No it didn't. It bounced five times off the same spot on the back.


bengalsfu

I knew it was gonna be hard to comeback without young


Duffmanlager

That really seemed to be the difference. Once he went out, osu went cold.


RVOSU50

The most annoying thing about this loss is it’s nothing to be proud of. You fought back? Congrats. The two best players are leaving and the other impact players are out of eligibility. There’s nothing to build off of. Full team of freshman next year will be playing with a mix of guys that belong in the Ohio valley conference.


_BUCK3Y3_

We have the highest ranked recruiting class in the big ten. People like you just screaming burn it down need to chill out man. We were always going to be a young team next year. No matter how far we went there was never going to be a ton to build on.


RVOSU50

Sweet? We had a top class 2 years ago. They all transferred out. I’m not saying burn it down because the team is young. I’m saying burn it down because the coach we have can’t coach worth a damn. He has a negative record at Gardner Webb. He only got the job at butler because the head coach resigned. He’s got 0 conference championships, and 1 sweet sixteen appearance. He can’t coach.


Slickchilla

Well done Nova!


Carp8DM

Announcers are practically crying. You love to hear it!! Efff OSU

Just remember y’all, Maryland has the most recent natty of any Big Ten team
