I’m glad Ivisic is back but it’s clear he lost a lot of weight. We might not be truly full strength for another few weeks
Agreed. Team just needs every point they can get.
Honestly guys, OSU is playing their A game thus far. They've been great. We're playing really well also, but we simply have to keep up the intensity and make our quality shots. If we played like this against USC, Nebraska, or Maryland, we'd be up double digits, but OSU is a good team playing a great game. Just gotta keep churning and try and make this one go our way.

Unfortunately, not us.
I actually don't think we played that bad, this team just is broken shooting the ball right now. OSU also being red hot from three doesn't help at all
Can we get one of those?
Analytics say let him shoot the 3. Maybe we should spend less time worrying about analytics and more time focusing on shutting down the hot shooter. Can we demote Hamer to water boy?
It’s OK, we’re a football school now.

Once again horrible 3 point shooting and the team playing us shooting them reasonably well. And, as usual, a player on their team going off against us having a career scoring game.
By which metric are we playing "really well"? Take out Morez and this is similar to the USC game.
if we can't make open threes at a reasonable rate, there's nothing you can do. No good coaching, good game plan can salvage that.
3 of 15 from three and 8 turnovers. This is no longer a trend. It's who we are.
the team is 9/11 for 82%. Two teams in the country are better than that lol
Ready to see DGL on the floor in the 2nd half
Honestly don't know what the answer is. We get tons of open 3s and they don't fall. We do well offensively inside, but we are not always the best at getting the ball inside, outside a couple guys. Rez is best thing we have going offensively, and it's not even by plan (how many of his points are off boards vs. off assists).
This team as good as it is in danger of not making tourney if it loses this game. You can only lose so many home conf games. Brads love affair of Humichrous needs to end now that tomislav back. That dude has been killing us during our cold streak and can’t hit the broad side of a barn
Definitely trending positive. The TO’s are still painful.
