    Ohio State vs. Xavier - Wow!

    What a game. I thought OSU was sunk for sure. They were on their heels all game, not able to finish around the hoop.

    Key Plays:

    -Conley steal in regulation to help pull them to within one on the three point play
    -Xavier miss on the second of two
    -Lewis awesome three pointer to tie


    Kind of feel bad for Xavier, but man what a game.
    Thank goodness for baseball.

    Oden should have gotten a technical on the last play of regulation. He threw a player off the court without even making an attempt for the ball. I can't stand Xavier, but that was an intentional foul by Oden.

    Refs screwed Xavier.

    Oden apparantly can get away with murder.

    My thoughts also, OS got very lucky with that call. The game basically should have been over after that.

    WOW! I nearly had a mother truckin' heart attack. Ron Lewis is THE MAN! I cannot believe it. The only thing to say here is March Madness got it's name because of games just like THAT!

    That was an incredible game...ending...and a great showing by Mike Conley Jr. in OT!



    RON LEWIS, I love you!

    I always liked Oden because he seemed likea good guy, but today he proved he is nothing but a punk IMO. I'm neutral when it comes to OSU basketball but that move totally turned me against them.

    Come on - I agree 1000% that was an intentional foul. But it doesn't make him a punk. He tried to make an obvious foul and yes I'm sure the velocity of it was influenced by frustration, but I don't think that makes him a punk

    It was a bad call, but if Cage makes both free throws, it's a non-issue.

    I completely disagree. It was a hard obvious foul, but not malicious, and the ball was right there. They don't make that call in that situation no matter who is the one that fouls. The calls throughout the game certainly did not go OSU's way, and you could even argue that Xavier benifited from the calls.

    I only heard the OSU radio, but it sounds like David Lighty was fouled and it wasn't called, not sure what the Oden complaint is, but they did not say a thing about it on the radio.

    I can't beleive the main topic of discussion is Oden's hard foul.

    I'm just incredibly excited that OSU made such an incredible come back. That was quite possibly one of the best games I've ever watched.

    Was glad the Oden show fouled out, Ohio State played better without him. They looked like the Ohio State before the bunny shot misser came along.
