1. EJ Liddell is 6-7 and 240 with a 7-4 wingspan.

2. If tOSU had played Key and Liddell together, I could still see DMW on EJL.

Matchups were a problem. tOSU starters  were 6-7, 6-8, 6-7,  6-6, and 6-3.

O$U was making shots and we weren't... I still don't think we're as bad as some of you say
Yeah, this game was exactly like the NW game, where there was a stretch in the 1st half where they made literally everything they threw up and we couldn’t hit anything. Unfortunately, OSU is better than NW, and we couldn’t come back the same way. 

Matchups were a problem, but I think if we played OSU 10 times, we would win 7 of them. Just not this one.

I'd probably switch that to a 3 out of 10. 

OSU didn't have two of their guards and still handled us start to finish.  Illinois only lead in the game was 2-0.  They also beat us on our own floor while both Kofi and Ayo combined for 37 pts and 15 rebounds.

This team lost their 3rd and 4th best players off last years team and their replacements have massively underachieved their production from last years team.  Andre was the defensive soul of this team last year.  Alan Griffin despite crappy defense was still the second highest offensive efficiency player last year in the Big Ten behind Garza.

At best I don't see us being any better than 3-3 in our next 6.  I hope I end up eating my own words but we are only a Penn State loss away from the sky is falling.  We reek of a double digit seed/bubble team.

Well, until we fix the defense and get some production off the bench besides Curbello we will be inconsistent.

We have to find some minutes for Hawkins especially. It's fine to be smaller, but DW and Miller never beat their defender and attack the hole, and Trent can't finish. And  the guards are all too small to stop the 6'6" to 6'7" guys other teams have.

It will take a system effort.

If Liddell regularly connects on 4 of 7 threes moving forward, that might be true.

But at this point, it's an anomaly.

Is it really an anomaly when he’s their best player and our primary weakness is not having a player at his position? It was comical watching Kofi trying to guard him on the perimeter in the early going. It was comical watching him back down DMW and anyone else we tried to throw at him. Anyone that didn’t know Liddell was going to absolutely go off in that game hasn’t been paying attention.

We do not have a longer wing to handle these 6'6"- 6'7" guys.
We have been vulnerable all year to this. In addition our guards are not uber athletic or physical. Ayo has the most tools, but he is just not a plus defender.
The threes were an anomaly from his history, but he went 6-9 otherwise. Agree, he pretty much did what he wanted.
Sgt Hulka made zero in game adjustments and we are not developing anybody to throw in there when needed.

2009 Illinois beat Ohio State in Columbus because Chet went crazy from the arc.
