i hope penn state wins...northwestern gave us fits in both the games we played them...they played us tough the first game and we pulled away in the closing minutes...it took a basket with like 10 seconds left and NW not calling one of their 4 timeouts to beat them in the 2nd game. 3rd times a charm isn't it? i really think NW could beat us if they play us again.

PSU won: http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaab/recap?gid=200603090459

We've dominated the Lions in both games this year, so hopefully this will be an easy victory were we can rest the starters a bit in the second half.

Just saw the highlights and we were down by 12 to penn state. In any event they won and are now in the finals i believe.

Just watched it on tivo. We played pretty uninspired till the last 8 or 9 minutes, but watching them pull it together at the end, go 3-0 on PSU this year, and advance in the tournement, I'm pretty jacked. Hopefully we put our bad basketball out of the way, and will continue with the fire we saw at the end of the game from here on out.

And Cali, that puts us in the semifinals vs IU tomorrow. We need to beat IU and then win another on sunday to win this thing. And since they're saying if we win we're a #1 seed in the NCAA, I'm now changing my tune, that winning the BTT is important. You don't get the chance to be a #1 seed very often, and that would be real sweet for the Buckeyes.

Well Nova just lost to Pitt as well as Allan Ray (see thread in OT) so there pretty much done with.

They didn't play the game locally yesterday. I watched the highlights and saw those 2 short jumpers IU blew as time expired. That was lucky on our part.

Ah well, at least they will be televising the finals today, and more importantly we're in them!
