Playing ugly games is becoming the norm for the Ohio State basketball team. After losing to last-place Minnesota at home a couple of games ago, the Buckeyes followed that up with a loss to the team just above the Golden Gophers in the standings, Nebraska by a score of 63-60.
Yes, it’s another close loss for this Ohio State team under Chris Holtmann. It’s a trend that can’t be excused away as dumb luck and the bounce of a ball one way or the other any longer. This time, a chance at tying the game at the buzzer by Sean McNeil rimmed out after another desperate and disorganized last possession.
