Wow.....these kids really pulled themselves up off the deck in the last week of the season. Back to back wins over Purdue and Sparty have given us some hope for the dance. Gutty win over a tough Sparty squad after being down by 10 in mid-way through the second half. Great job fellas.....still believe they need a win in the tourney to be sure of the dance.
Interesting to see the metamorphis of this team, from the high of your spanking of Syracuse when you looked like a top 25, to the very next game when you looked like a bad Sun Belt team against the Aggies. It's always a rough road with young teams. Seems like you guys are comming together at the right time. Of course you face Sparty in the B10 tournament on a neutral court next so we'll see what ya' got!! Terry
I hope you're right about them coming together at the right time....if nothing else, surely they gained a degree of confidence which had been badly shaken by the consecutive losses to some pretty mediocre teams. They are gonna need it if they hope to beat Sparty twice in a row.....that's tough for anybody.
I did not see the game as cleaning up after the massive and record setting snow storm here yesterday. 20 Inches of snow in two days. What a pleasant surprise when I came in shortly after the game had ended. Butler, Hunter and Twig now have the distinction of winning 100 games in their playing days for the Buckeyes. Don
