Besides some bad stats listed above, Ohio has two players with bulk of offense. Their PG was too big for Trent to handle and using same mismatch on Damonte down low.

Either get more offense from Damonte to negate or go with two bigs. Looks like Damonte getting more offense the last several minutes.

Nice! And yes, it's unfortunately a given, if you choose to live in this space during competitive games.

Illinois needs to win but this is a game that's going to benefit them a lot more going forward than beating up on the worst Division 1 teams possible.

Ohio has FIVE turnovers through 3/4 of the game? Wow!

I like Miller's game too. Great basketball sense. He and Ayo essentially need to always be on the court in crunch time.

Don't care how good a frosh player is...there is always a pucker factor for anyone to some degree. Miller is not Larry Bird or Magic and needs to wade through that aspect and it only comes with playing tight games against tough competition. He has the talent to get it done but just needs to learn what cards to put into play and when.

Until that last play from Ayo to Kofi, it’s looked liked we are content to just play half court with Ohio...need to rev it up...I’ll be in to collect my portion of BU’s paycheck on Monday.
