What We Learned:OSU 70, Nebraska 44

I learned that Neb is in for another long year in the Big10. On the good side, we need to recruit the next Aaron Craft. Love to watch him play at both ends. Lenzelle is quietly having a good season too. He came on late last year and picked up where he left off.

The biggest keys to the season are how much better Amir Williams and LaQuinton Ross get through the rest of season. They are the X factors that could make the Buckeyes really great versus good. Go Bucks !

Absolutely! It looked for a while like all players were hitting higher FT percentages. Last two games, not so much.

We learned that Amir Williams is, indeed, improving every game and will be a very effective big Man.

We learned that we have to take the ball inside to have an effective offense and that when we do that we are very effective and our 3 point shooting improves.

We learned that Ravenal is most effective when he comes off the bench.

We learned again that Ross will be a big time player if given enough PT.

We learned that McDonald is going to be a very good back-up big Man if given enough PT.

We learned again that we have two very good point guards in Craft and Scott. But, one of them has to learn how to hit some outside shots so they can play together.

i thought that was the football score..my bad

My coach always said start under the basket if your in a slump. Drive Craft drive. Drive to the hoop, shoot some bunnies, then a 8-10 ft'r then the three. Work in and then out plus driving to the hoop is either going to get fouls, dishing off for easy jams by the others or kicki it out for 3's. Lots of good things happen

I know Craft has to be working on his shot...keep working brother..we are all supporting you

Well its a good thing we have a great shot coach in Jent.....let's hope he continues to work with Craft. Kid still balls even though he can't hit water falling out of a boat right now...I know he will improve. Kid is too tough not to.

Amir seems to be coming around now that he's gotten more PT... and thats good to see. There are still times when he's in good position to grab an offensive board and he just doesn't go after it or he'll get the ball right under the basket and go up and try to lay it in. Son, your 6'11'', dunk the flippin thing.

I kinda like Della Valle get some more PT. He's a weapon from 3, but as with pretty much everyone on the team sans DT (mostly) he's streaky.

I thought Craft had a pretty good game. He made quite a few hustle plays that don't show up in the stats.

Still not sure what to think of this team. I don't think they are the 8th best team in the country, but that might go without saying. A win at Illinois would huge.

Amir with 8 points, 7 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 2 steals in 18 minutes - granted weak competition, but still efficient and effective.

More minutes please.
