KU vs OSU in the Final Four. Discuss.
 
I know there are a few other KU threads already, but I just figured we could talk about it here. Any other Buckeye fans here on the forum? If not that's ok.

My thoughts on the game:

I don't see us winning this game, we have a good team, but not a great team. If Buford played to his ability it might be a little bit of a different game, but he has been a major let down this year. We have a lot of talent, but we are really young, Sully, Craft, Thomas are all sophmores, Lenzelle, Q, Amir and Thompson are freshman. Another reason I don't see us winning is the fact that Sully has a hard time staying out of foul trouble, and KU has some very athletic bigs, if Sully gets into foul trouble we could be in trouble. We played you guys earlier this year and lost by 15 without Sully.

Your point guard will however be guarded by the best defensive point guard in College Basketball. Aaron Craft is a stud. Anyways, I hope it's a competitive game, and congratulations on beating Carolina, that was a fun game to watch.

Buford is your most talented player, IMO. If he would be assertive and take over games it would open things up for Sullinger and bring your team to its highest potential, IMO.

Rock Chalk.

I am extremely content with what KU has done this year.

Getting to the EE was more than what I had hoped for.

Beating Roy and UNC and getting to the final four is just way too much.

I agree.

Of course I want to win it all, but I was hoping to make the S16 tops at the beginning of the season.

Beating UNC to get into the FF was great. If we get blown-out by OSU, I will be upset at the moment I am sure. However, I will get over it pretty quickly I feel as I am more than thrilled with a FF this season.

The Jayhawks have no chance, your Buckeyes are just way too strong.


Rock Chalk!

Eeee. Say what?

Buford sucks. The team is worse off when hes assertive because he gets sloppy. Very interesting matchup in that sullinger should be kept relatively at bay by Either withey or robibson but he will still get his. Deshaim Thomas might be a rough guy matchup wise but i think relaford can do it. Aaron craft is probably one of the better on the ball defenders in the game so i hink taylor will have to be in too of his game. Interesting he one guy osu cant defenders is withey.

Craft is only a sophomore? Christ.

I expect it to be a really good, competitive game. We lost to Kansas by 11 last time without Sullinger (on the road). We game up the last 5 points from the line as well, so it was a fairly competitive game, which was surpising to me because we only shot 38% vs Kansas who shot damn near 60%. Over 50% from 3. Free Throws were about even. Will be fun to see, I can see either team winning.

I'd be SHOCKED if we are even within 10 in the last few minutes. Nope..we have no chance in this one I'm afraid. Already over.

I'm not even going to watch since I already know the outcome and it ain't gonna be pretty.

I completely agree, but this year has been his worst year ever. He is the 4th ranked scorer in Ohio State History, and if you just started watching the Buckeyes you would never guess that. He has been nothing short of a waste of space this year. Lenzelle Smith Jr. and D. Thomas have been better scoring threats and that's sad, because Buford has a ton of talent.

Don't use your reverse mojo!! The Jayhawks will beat the buckeyes by 14 (srs).

Dr. Johnny Fever 03-26-2012 09:55 AM

I'm already embarrassed by this game and it's 5 damn days away. Ugh.

I agree 100% with DaKC, Buford has crazy talent, but something has messed his head up, he is not the player he was the last 3 years. If he would come back to that he would the best scoring threat on the team.

Watching the Syracuse game enraged me, Buford did nothing, but take up space. He should've been on the bench, I don't know whats going on with that kid. D.Thomas is an absolute nightmare matchup because he is a southpaw, that tear drop floater he shoots is dang near impossible to guard. I agree with you on Craft, he is the best defender in the country IMO.
