I say the big ten has a solid 7-8 teams that can compete night and night out against the top teams in the country

On some nights they are that live and die by the three, but on other nights they attack the rim. They have two very good athletic players in Sims and Harris, who fit the mold of NBA types. They do have shooters, and that could be a big reason they have been inconsistent because of all of the threes they take.

OSU full strength is a good little team. Tourny worthy? i dont think so, but if Michigan or Penn State are in, i think they definetly have to take the Bucks.

Peake brought up that:
BTW, Michigan has beat OSU in hockey, mens soccer, womens soccer---and it will happen in softball and baseball (both teams should win the Big Ten title again this year)


And wants everyone to know that those sports matter:
women's soccer :roll:

Well, lets make sure we include:
Football
Mens Basketball
Womens Basketball
Fencing
Wrestling
Men's Hockey (yep we won one there too)
Men's Swimming
Men's Tennis (chalk up a future victory)
Men's Indoor Track and Field
Women's Field Hockey

Those are sports in which OSU has victories against Michigan.

Also, don't count chickens before they hatch. The Softball and Baseball matchups will be good,
and Michigan should be favored. But the Buckeyes in both sports are off to great starts, and they
don't play each other till late April and early May.

Name 65 teams better than OSU.


A 20-8 and 10-8 in conference OSU gets in the tournament.

With Lighty, Crater, and Kecman they would be in the top 3 of the Big10 IMO...

beliens wv teams were good shooters, patient offensively(always very good asst/to ratio). 3pt shooters and back cuts for layups when teams step out on the shooters but........ on a bad shooting night they struggled.
poor rebounding teams and a little soft defensively.
all factors of beating a ucla or wake forest one night then 3 nights later losing to depaul or rutgers caliber team.

He was playing, but not to his satisfaction. However, PJ Hill is now starting over Simmons. It was clear Crater was the guy for the future, and as early late this season.
