Early in the second...Buckeyes up by 20.
Lights out D with Foster on fire outside the arc...thats what I'm talking about!

i've always thought Thad Matta looks a little like Norm Stewart.
His 2001 Xavier team (with David West and Lionel Chalmers and Romaine Sato) played Oklahoma's Final Four team into the final minutes in the second round--in a very tough, physical game. much tougher than holy Luke Walton and U of A did in the sweet 16.
He's alwasy impressed me.

WE had no chance. The Illini Nation tips their hat to the Buckeyes on a good game played. We stop the arc, then Dials took over, so tough to beat the outside inside combo when it is on.

Great game for the Bucks today. The next few weeks will be nuts in the Big Ten.
The backcourt combo of Butler/Foster is absolutely lethal on both sides of the ball. Like Arch said, when these guys are on.... and Dials is playing like he played today..... this OSU team is top-ten.
Hoping for a fun March.

^^^^Nailed it... The Buckeyes go as far as Dials goes...dude needs to stay out of foul trouble.
Big Ten b-ball- no #1 seeds, but look out for any that make it to the tourney.

Arch, tough game. We are all learning more and more how difficult it is to play "away" at most teams places. We got Wiscy this week and I don't look forward to that.
Hope you beat the crap outta Iowa

Again, it scares me that Matta is having this much success this early in his tenure at OSU.
Our athletic department apparently can't afford to put our students at court level, but hopefully they can afford to keep Thad around for a long time.

RACK the shit outta that, our student representation sucks. While I think everyone would love a Cameron Indoor setting, I admire what MSU and UM have dond with their student sections.
