[All About the Corn]

Hopefully a few more days between games and we have a better showing tonight. I think if we can play to our potential we can come out with a "W". 

[Cazzie22]

A win at Ohio St would be huge for this team. I hope we can keep it competitive.  Looking for Sam and Jaz to have big bounce back games. 

[12dozen]

The first of 3 games in 5 days.  I hope everyone is fully recovered.  It wasn't that long ago, we couldn't field a team because of Covid/health/injury related issues.   

[Cazzie22]

We need to handle the press better.  

[Cazzie22]

22-19 Huskers.  Stewart might not be with the team tonight.

Good thing Bella and Izzie seem to be playing with more energy.

[Cazzie22]

Silly 2nd foul on Markowski.

[Cazzie22]

Our press offense is scary.

[Cazzie22]

Rebounding is keeping us ahead. If we were more efficient on offense we might have stretched the lead.  Nice to be ahead and not playing our best.

[Cazzie22]

2:42 left in 2nd.  Only 7 points in the quarter.

[Cazzie22]

Our passing is terrible.

[Cazzie22]

36-31 Ohio St.   Just bad basketball in the 2nd quarter.  Sam is off and Bella with the ball is turning it over or missing shots down low.  Markowski getting her 3rd foul might be fatal.  

 

Still cannot believe how poorly we attack a press.

[KarlHessEatMy....]

Our heads are only screwed on half way tonight!!! It's a good thing we only down 5 after that quarter.  I swear girls don't think other girls can jump when making passes. It drives me nuts. 

 

Bourne has got to be one of the laziest defenders this year.  I am not sure why coach ever has her guarding a big that can shoot.. not impressed this year by her. 

 

Markowski needs to chill out. Those last 2 fouls were like grade school mistakes.... Hopefully heads are screwed on tight 2nd half cuz we can play with them

Not sure why coach put her in with 3 minutes to go in the half.  

[Cazzie22]

Sam is not playing good bb tonight.

[Cazzie22]

We cannot make a shot. Our posts miss plenty of inside shots.  This could have been a winnable game.

[Cazzie22]

59-46 OSU. We are offensive with our offense tonight.

Other than a 4th quarter or two, not sure she has played up to her normal level since the shoulder injury.  Did she miss enough practice to affect her conditioning?

[Cazzie22]

MSU beating Michigan drops us further in the standings.

[Cazzie22]

Our lack of quickness really shows up against the better teams.  

[Red Don]

Well, on the bright side we're 100% in FTs. 

 

(oops, spoke too soon (as Jaz misses)

I didnt expect to win tonight but we're running out of time to pick up good wins. 1-6 against quad 1 teams now with Indiana being their last quad 1 opportunity outside the conference tourney. Indiana is a huge game if we wanna go to the big dance.

Hope we can beat Illinois.  We don’t have the tools to beat Indiana.

If we had played a solid game tonight we could have beaten OSU.
