I was watching the Indiana game and was thinking "I wonder how we're going to blow this one?"

I'm happy to say the 'Cats made a fool out of me. I don't know what lies ahead, but I'm not doubting this team any more.

Mea Maxima Culpa

Watched that happen way too many times last year, and then this year's Pitt debacle. Such a relief to see the "Impending Doom" script rewritten.

Better get used to it. There are a lot of good teams in the league this year, and they're going to make runs at you during a game at some point. The three-point shot means even double-digit leads can be erased in a couple of minutes. The days of Bobby Knight's Indiana teams milking a 10-point lead for an entire half are over.

Ask Rutgers, which led Ohio State by 16 with 15 minutes to play last night and ended up winning by 12. I was thinking of watching that game, but didn't turn it on when I saw Rutgers had the big lead. Rutgers fans are furious about the officiating — didn't watch the game so don't know if they have a beef.

To be fair yesterday would not have been blowing it. IU came back very early in the 2nd. And we kept our cool and fought. Buie from the corner followed by Kopp’s 3 sparked our return

We mirror Rutgers in some respects. Similar rated players and coaches. Now is the time to prove it and win a lot of games like they have/do. If we can beat osu, we might be even better than rutgers this year!

Rutgers was basically down three players in second half so don't write them off just yet. One guys was out, a big fouled out with about 14 minutes to play and Young went down on a hard fall. And there weree four fouls on their only other big
