I hope I don’t jinx this. But this has been a well officiated game. Some weird plays and still I think, overall, they’ve got things right.

Don’t screw it in the last minute

I was thinking that part way through. Refs haven’t over officiated or had too many brutal calls either way.

Man, they did not make that easy on themselves, did they? A lot of mistakes at the end that could’ve easily derailed that win, but impressive to walk out with the W!

There were definitely same brainfarts down the stretch that reminded me of years past, but fortunately Ohio State did too.

This felt like a game we fell apart at the end but won anyway. Woof
Not we, Chase fell apart. Twoo fouls with under two minutes to go and the other team jn the double bonus m is dumb.

Not running the baseline taking the ball out is dumb.

Everyone makes mistakes. Got a big rebound at the end.

He has to be smarter.

Good win and learning experience as the season continues.

He missed the front end of a 1 and 1 also, which would’ve given a nice cushion, but hey man, when it counted, we got the win

He struggled down the stretch, but that corner three and final rebound were both HUGE. Nobody's perfect, he had a bad night, but he still made big plays. Cats get the win. I'll take it.

Offensive end, the Cats really executed down the stretch. Impressive!! The late-inbounding of the ball and defensive glass? Could use some work. Big win. Congrats!! Please win this weekend vs PU, but not Wednesday night while I’m there.

Really can’t find much fault in this game. We won in Cobus vs a team that pantsed us. We took it in the final 5 minutes. Even had a late Nicholbomb. Beran, Berry, Chase, Brooks all hit big 3s late.

If you can’t like that, get some better dope.

Huuuuge win. Got me nervous at the end but the guys held on and won at a place we almost never win at. Don’t want to jinx anything but the last time we won in Columbus was a very special year. Our next three games are at home against very tough opponents so the guys must protect the house make this a great year.
Brooks Barnhizer coaches kid is gonna be special for our CATS!!!

We finally got the Brooks breakout. I’m hoping this is the first of many. Really good player.

Tonight OSU gets to be the team wondering why one of our bench players had a career night against them. That’s a nice change of pace.

As frustrating as Chase’s night was, and it was frustrating, it’s also pretty damn good news NU can win a quality road game with Chase playing that badly, even if it did result in great part from OSU being even more incompetent/cold late than NU (clanking open 3s the entire night didn’t hurt a bit either). Boo had a marvelous overall game, and Barnheiser gave NU the legit second scoring option NU needed without chase. Pretty ugly and frustrating win… but we are WAY past the point of needing to care about style points. This thing is starting to draw close, just win baby.

OSU's leading scorer was J Sueing. How is he still eligible? I live in the bay area and saw him play for Cal about 7 years ago. We got the W--that's all that matters.

Just wait until next year when Boo and Chase return, B1G teams will be saying the same thing!
