NU vs OSU - 2nd Half Thread
- Thread starter vmloza34
- Start date
Went up 44-41 on a Buie 3, then the wheels just came off.
- Gave up a coast-to-coast layup
- Buie tried too hard to do the same, turnover
- Spencer got called for a carry (which was probably valid)
The only good thing is NU actually has a big foul advantage. Will be in the bonus next OSU foul.

Now four. Of course they missed a huge one on Buie’s drive and layup. Cmon Refs!
go Cats!
The refs suck. When they call NU games, they just "assume" things. Like every time a Merry Land player has the ball, they assume that an NU player must have fouled him. And here we see their assumption when a wildcat player has the ball.
Wish Nance could make his free throws.
Ryan Young and Pat Spencer willing things into existence on offense here with the jumpers not falling.

Props to Carton. Nice ups.
Yeah we need to hit our FTs. I like Nance right now as a defender and rebounder - plus guy on the glass and driving the ball.
Kopp or Nance keep disappearing in pressure situations. We can’t win that way.
The alley-oop was impressive.
But I didn’t see the foul on Turner on his previous drive. At all.
There was none. It was a phantom call. OSU just getting a call because they’re not NU.
Things tighten up and Buie and Spencer default to hero ball, for better or worse. Usually worse.
As others have said, Kopp creates fewer of his own shots and needs to get them out of a good offense that moves the ball and runs people off screens.
Man their 3s are killing us...

They’ve been switching on screens all night. Experienced teams, coaches and point guards look for the mismatches they create. We don’t.
This might be Boo’s worst game so far.
We definitely could have won this game, very disappointing.

Turner not grabbing an offensive rebound leading to an open 3 was perfectly emblematic. We need so many tough things to go right ... and we flub a lot of the easy things
Teams get what Buie is about now. And he’s still shaking off the rust.
He and Spencer combined for 8 turnovers. Can’t have that.
