Ohio State under seeded?

[speedoo]

That's what everyone was saying.

Problem is they are playing like an 8 seed, down 12 at the moment.

As expected, nothing from anyone besides Hill and Prahalis.

Which coach is worse... Jim Foster or Andy Landers?

 

[MilfordHusky]

Down 8 to a very mediocre Florida team at the half. They were insulted to be an 8 seed, but they are playing like a 12 seed.

 

[speedoo]

Neither team will present any problem for ND, so whoever wins this game will gain a small victory.

 

[HuskyNan]

Florida-Ohio State is an ugly matchup. Two pretty mediocre teams.

 

[Icebear]

They never impressed during the Big Ten schedule and completely collapsed down the stretch going 5-5. They even lost to a terrible IL team.

 

[alexrgct]

Florida trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

 

[HuskyNan]

Florida may luck out, after all.

 

[alexrgct]

Ugh. Ohio State didn't want it, I guess. UF is going to win. On to Georgetown-Fresno State for me.

 

[choochoo]

SSSSHHHHHHH! Don't tell anyone but Ohio State lost in the first round again!

 

[ThisJustIn]

Lookin' at the box, it's hard to figure Florida as the winner (http://scores.espn.go.com/ncw/boxscore?gameId=320780194). Frees throws and offensive rebounds?

The game changer had 9 points.

LOL!

The Not-game-changer is done. Now let's see if some WNBA GM is dumb enough to pick her.

I thought she was the future of women's basketball?

 

[speedoo]

The game changer had 9 points.

And ZERO in the second half.

My error. I had projected tOSU for its traditional second-round exit, I realize now that was a burst of excessive enthusiasm.

or perhaps Irrational Exuberance......

Boy, you guys are a tough crowd. If UConn doesn't win the rest of your games and Hayes doesn't play well, will you ridicule her or give her a pass? Prahalis had to carry OSU all year with only one other real scorer. She isn't my favorite player either, but she didn't give herself those labels and I'm sure she didn't want to end her career on such a sour note.

As much as everyone likes to trash OSU, I'll remind that most people didn't even think they'd make the tournament this year.

And they're a lot better than they were under the previous coach.

"One and done" Foster has "oned and doned" it again.

Huh? Who are "most people"? Can you name two?

Of course Hayes has never been hyped with over-the-top labels. And you're presuming that the ridicule is directed at her rather than at those who did so.

I consider the remarks about the labels to be good-natured debunking. And the remark about her draft status, while a bit harsh, is someone's opinion, to which he's entitled.

We do have a rule against player-trashing, and this thread has been moderated accordingly. Posts that attack the personal character of players are candidates for application of the rule.

As someone with a long history of virulent anti-UConn statements, IIRC, I trust you aren't here merely to lecture. At an appropriate time, a look ahead to RU's 2012-13 season might be more welcome.

No preseason poll I'm aware of had them in the top 25, and the one top 50 poll I saw didn't have them listed either.

Now that's just tara-bull, vowelguy!

I may be wrong, but didn't Athalon have them at 21, ESPN at 24?
