Ayo has some of that Michael Jordan killer instinct in him. He seems to love those clutch moments.

Damonte with a late clutch three. Member when we all would cringe when he took that shot? Now I got confidence in him.

Preston is lighting our asses up

A lot of MAC players (basketball & football) have the proverbial chip on their shoulder because they think they should have received an offer from a bigger school. Some of them -- Ron Harper comes to mind -- definitely were talented enough to excel in the B1G Ten/ACC/Big East.

Preston is really impressive. 8 assists and 0 turnovers, in addition to 31 points. He knows how to work to get his shot against any defender.

Man that was a great game. Ohio brought their A game. Preston is either damn good or got a shitload of lucky breaks. They move the ball really well and appeared well coached. Will be interesting to see how they fare the rest of the season.

We out rebounded them by 20. We had 16 turnovers, they had 7. We had 3 steals, they had 10.
They played well.
3-0, and Baylor next.

Nice win to have Ayo be clutch after we were on the ropes. It's Ohio, but we're playing on no rest so hard to make anything of it. I think fatigue clearly got to Curbelo and Miller.

Would've been nice to see Trent/Giorgi, or even someone like Grandison step up and score more in a game like this with low rest. We'll need those guys if Ayo or Kofi get into foul trouble.

Fuck yeah.  I know he's been ragged on over the years (and rightly so in some cases), but it's hard not to root for the kid.  Nice to see him have some success coming off the latter part of last year.

Ohio put on a clinic in terms of half court offense execution. Preston and the bun head white kid had their way with us.

Might have been tired legs, but our defense was not good. Hope staff works on defending high ball screen.

Glad we won and we have a lot of weapons but need a lot of work before Baylor and fcking Duke.

Ohio was impressive. They played really tough D and they were great at exploiting mismatches offensively. I could see them being a tournament team.

I didn’t like our defensive rotations today, we need to clean that up ASAP. Having 2 freshmen and a new addition in Grandison probably contributed to that, but it’s no excuse.

The Bobcats played 3 games in 3 days also.
Preston averaged 34 minutes a game.

Exactly. People make it sound like the Illini were the only team on the court that was playing 3 games in 3 days.
