Meanwhile, on the OSU campus:
February 29th, 2020 at 10:05 AM ^
I predict Muppets.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:13 AM ^
i don't, not after we booted the wisconsin game and with the way that ohio gets home-cooking in officiating as per the front page detailed stats write up earlier this week. could happen, but not betting the farm on it, that's for sure.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:28 AM ^
It took no Livers, 34% shooting from 2, and a hall of fame screwjob from the ref crew to cost us the game last time. I feel pretty good about this game.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:36 AM ^
Home court advantage is huge in the big ten, except for us. I’m happy getting the wins at Rutgers and Purdue. A win today would be a bonus, but I’m not getting my expectations up.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:43 AM ^
"....except for us."
Funny thing that. As the front page analysis showed this week, that's not just the whining of Michigan supporters, it's actually documented by the numbers.
I wonder why that is. It reminds me of the 2016 football season when the best D line in the country didn't get even ONE offensive holding call the last 7 games of the season.
Two things stand out for me on that:
1. Not surprising
2. Not a new thing
February 29th, 2020 at 6:13 PM ^
I’m with you. I like our chances tomorrow and I think we blow them out, BUT there’s the other part of me that realizes the last game was at home and with this one in Columbus, the likelihood that it happens again could be extremely high.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:37 AM ^
I'm going. First time ever watching a basketball game there and have no idea where I'm sitting.
My best friend's wife bought him tickets to the game for his birthday (he's an OSU alum and a HUGE Buckeye honk) and asked us to join them.
Should be fun.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:42 AM ^
Let's meet up and heckle the Ohio State fans before the game
February 29th, 2020 at 10:46 AM ^
I would if I knew where I was going to be. But If you see a mostly gray haired 6'5", 245 pound dude wearing a Michigan varsity jacket with a yellow Michigan basketball t-shirt under it it's probably me.
February 29th, 2020 at 10:55 AM ^
If you see a 5'11" 170 lb younger guy with a beard and Michigan shirt on (Worst State Ever shirt if we win, that I'm wearing under), it's probably me
February 29th, 2020 at 11:13 AM ^
I would be interested to know how you were treated. I know they are supposed to have venom in their veins for anything UM, but I suspect that deep down they pity us a bit.
February 29th, 2020 at 11:26 AM ^
Michigan fans are wimps tbh. People are that afraid of people swearing at them that they refuse to make the trip to Columbus... I'm not afraid of punks wearing scarlet and gray
February 29th, 2020 at 3:26 PM ^
I also am an internet tough guy. I will grind their scarlet & gray asses to a bloody pulp!
February 29th, 2020 at 12:02 PM ^
They may pity us in football, but we beat them occasionally in basketball.
February 29th, 2020 at 6:42 PM ^
Varsity jacket? Nice. For what, if I may ask?
February 29th, 2020 at 11:31 AM ^
might suggest wearing a helmet like benvom's avatar. could assist when the batteries and full cans start raining down.
February 29th, 2020 at 12:10 PM ^
I’m 0-3 on games I’ve been to in Columbus. Two basketball games (including the 2012-13 season when they handed Michigan their first loss of the season), and one football game.
So I’ll be Doing the team a favor and staying away.
February 29th, 2020 at 12:32 PM ^
I'm 0-4 at ND for football games, don't plan to go there again.
February 29th, 2020 at 12:45 PM ^
And I'm 2-0. Went in 2006 and then again 2010.
For every ying there's a yang.
February 29th, 2020 at 12:16 PM ^
I'll be there with one Michigan fan and two indifferents. I went in 2014 (or 2015?) and it wasn't that bad. Basketball is a totally different story, OSU mouthbreatherwise.
I was thinking the other day that OSU is the widest gap for me between how much I loathe their football team compared to their basketball team. MSU I hate about equally, and actually I probably hate their basketball team more. PSU I only a little hate their football team and am indifferent to their basketball team.
Only ND rivals OSU, but I actually liked Matta a bit and I think Holtmann is pretty cool. Also, I met Evan Turner in an airport once and he couldn't have been nicer. It actually made me a little sick.

Delaney will make sure this is a loss. Not even going to waste my time checking the score.
February 29th, 2020 at 2:14 PM ^
Shouldn’t Kevin Warren be drawing your ire?
It’s interesting how in retirement, Jim Delaney is still pulling the strings?
Are you sure it isn’t Wayne Duke?
