How about the game from PJ Hill? Stepping up to the plate when his oppurtunity arises.

Re: Ohio State 73 Penn State 59
Good result, showed why they struggle at times during the game.
They are young and thin on the bench. They don't have the depth to
play a pressure style the entire game. When they opened the game in
man to man with pressure, they started off 19-2. When they went to a zone,
Penn St lit them up like a Christmas tree, and took the entire 17 point lead away.
The bench scoring from the box score will look good on paper, but they
had Mullins and Simmons off the bench with 27 combined points. Both of these
guys could be, and have been starters.
They only had 6 turnovers last night, a good improvement. They out rebounded
PSU by 9, with 34 boards.
Overall, a good showing. Showed what they can be, and why they have struggled at times.
Aggravating thing is they are 13 points over three games from having an 8 game winning streak.
They're 5-3 over that span, with two good teams having beat them. They need to finish strong and
get at least one win in the Big 10 tourney to have a solid shot at the NCAA tournament.
