[Orange and Brown]

They have to go through Wisconsin twice and there is a good change the
Badgers can come out with a win in one of those game. Meatchicken played them tough at home but they will get blown out at the Schott

[Raiderball]

Most difficult games remaining IMO
@Wisc
@Purdue - I think Purdue will play with a chip on their shoulder after humiliating loss in Columbus.
Wisc

Both Minn and Mich St having personnel issues or I would add these games.
Penn St??? I don't think so.

[Orange and Brown]

22-0!!!!

GO BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

[seofan_via_dublin]

Not since Indiana in what? 1976?

[Slim Jim]

And it wont happen this year.You buckeye fans better hope they lose one before the tournament.The longer you go without a loss the pressure goes up two fold.This goes for high school teams as well.

[seofan_via_dublin]

I don't expect them to go undefeated, in fact I think they are a 2 maybe 3 loss team before the NCAA tourney.

For me, it's not about going unbeaten, but more on how they come out the game after a loss. I need to see their mental state and toughness after a game doesn't go their way.

[runhallerun]

Sullinger and Craft are special players. They both make OSU difficult to beat.

Why does Lauderdale play at all? His minutes have not been cut enough. He is always out of position trying to block shots. His basketball IQ is very low for a senior in a DI program. An intentional elbow to the throat? Common, that is bush league. Hopefully, Matta will continue to give more of his minutes to Thomas. The negatives far outweigh the positives w/ Lauderdale.

[OZZIEOHIO]

How often does an undefeated team go on to win a national championship? Just saying...

I agree and was talking to dowg about the same thing. A loss before the Tourny may do more good than harm.

But it would be nice to go all the way to the finals with no losses.

[ManitouDan]

Sullinger is the best player by far that Ive seen this season.

[Hoggy]

I like the Buckeyes this year as compared to being a one man show like last year. The bench is deeper and they seem to have good team chemistry right. I honestly don't see them winning out and will more than likely get clipped in the Big Ten tourney, but that wouldn't upset me at all.

[The_Legend_of_Northwest]

If they are going to lose, I would prefer it be in the regular season. A loss in the Big Ten tourney would reduce them to an at large tourney bid, and I wonder if any at larges ever get a #1 seed or even a #2?

All the time, Syracuse got a #1 last year and they lost their 1st game in the Big East tourney.

[Tim Hardaway Jr.]

If they don't lose before this, look for Penn State to give them a great game if not win.

[Space Cowboy]

If they don't lose before this, look for Penn State to give them a great game if not win.

Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Perdue will give them a good game and possibly beat them...... but Penn State will get hammered.

[JChipwood]

I agree 4ever, this team is more rounded than the past 2 OSU teams to earn a final four spot but March is a wierd time in bball and many times over the best team doesn't make it, anyhting can happen in the tournament format. I personally would like to see a matchup between tOSU and the Dukies but not until the final game. Would be a hard fought defensive game for sure.

A team like Texas, UConn, or Pitt (amoung others) would create matchup issues in spots for us and probably make Diebler irrelevant offensively as most athletic teams could. If we make a deep run, imo, DThomas will play a bigger role and Buford will have to be getting and hitting his shots.
