Playing an ugly game is becoming the norm for the Ohio State University basketball team. After losing to bottom-placed Minnesota at home a few games earlier, the Buckeyes followed suit with a score of 63\u201360 to the team just ahead of the Golden Gophers in the Nebraska standings.<\/p>\n
Well, another close loss for this Ohio State team led by Chris Holtman. This is a trend that can no longer be dismissed as bad luck and bouncing balls. This time, a chance to tie the game at Sean McNeil’s buzzer was cut off after another desperate and confusing final possession.<\/p>\n

It was ugly from the start for the Buckeyes. OSU shot poorly in the first half, but managed to stay in the ball game as Nebraska showed a walker as well, going up one point at 22-21. Lack of ball movement, lack of spacing, watching one man dribble the ball in an isolated set.<\/p>\n
The second half was much the same.<\/p>\n
Freshman Bryce Sensabo led the Buckeyes in scoring again, but again struggled to shoot the ball off the floor in the first half. He scored 18 points on 6-of-16 shooting. In fact, Ohio State as a whole struggled to make shots. The Buckeyes field goal percentage was just 35.6 percent, and he made only 20 of 56 shots.<\/p>\n
\nLast.

The loss left OSU 10-8 overall and 2-5 in the league. The Buckeyes themselves are now only 1\/2 game from the basement. It’s getting harder and harder to watch, and one has to wonder if this team will continue to skate.<\/p>\n
