The Musketeers take out the Bearcats, in the Crosstown Shootout.

I still can't believe conf games are being played before the BIG ccg has been played.

Buckeyes with another big lead. Let's see how they blow it

I think it's time to worry about Wisconsin

I'll take this half time score as a nice final score for the football game.

Update: Now I'm worried.

No doubt. I turned it off. I don't remember the last time I did that. Maybe when Yoder was the coach.

83-58 was the final, as Chris Holtmann remains undefeated in Big Ten play. 

OSU is tied for first place atop Big Ten Standings.

How pissed must Barry be now that Bo forced this hire on him?

Come back from 22 down to throw it away on a hail mary inbound play with just over 4 seconds left.  Unreal.

Purdue 2-0 in conference play, but they certainly made the fans sweat it out. 

Granted, that was expected against Maryland. Maryland is a good team, it was at their place, etc. But I think the Vegas line on NU @ Purdue was something like -14, and every time Purdue extended a lead, NU came charging right back. That one was closer than IMHO it should have been.

Update: Now I'm worried.

Is there ANY chance that OSU's blowout win in Madison says something about the Buckeyes or are we all in agreement that it simply says that Wisconsin is a LOT worse than any of us thought?

They try hard and the offense is much more sound conceptually.  But they are relying on freshmen and Jaesean Tate is playing the point

It's not Big Ten, but Lavar Ball is taking LiAngelo out of school. I guess suspending a player for stealing ish in a foreign country is unfair treatment?
