I swore off starting game threads but am feeling lucky.

I've never tried a peacock subscription so is now a good time to give it a go?

Who starts? Who plays and who will have the hot hand?

Most peacock big 10 games can be found on you tube if you feel like sailing the 7 seas

The last 2 games have given me hope that we might be turning a corner, especially with Sepp starting at the 5 and Schmidt starting.

Something tells me this will be a close game. Maybe it’s the Penn State alum in me. 

I give us a 10% chance to win this game when it should really be more like 2%

OSU 68

The spread is Bucks -21. Bucks have been lousy on the road, but taking care of business versus the cupcakes at home.  I think our lack of muscle/height in the paint will lead to foul trouble and OSU has the better guards. Thornton is a load. Maybe it's close for 25 minutes. Bucks pull away late. 84-68

Some around the Valley seem to compare VU with Evansville(albeit quite erroniously), and their matchup ended 80-30 OSU. I expect VU to play within a 20 point margin. If they keep the game within 20 points, I would not be upset. OSU has had losses to Texas A and M, Auburn, Pitt, and Maryland. All teams I would consider "Decent". Ultimately I give all the props to the Indiana Schools for scheduling this game, and especially to Powell for making this the last noncon. It takes guts .

Ducky , someone’s gotta start one ! Buckeye’s coming off a blow out loss to what should be a final 4 team in Auburn. Could play in our favor, maybe Diebler takes it easy on us lol? Just keep it competitive please !

@rezynezy first, we still got 2 non-con games after this 😉 second, Ohio State got absolutely blown out by Auburn on Saturday. They have not had Aaron Bradshaw, starting center, for a month. Meechie Johnson, starting PG, just went on a leave of absence for personal reasons. Jake Diebler has his hands full. tOSU is still a good team without them, but I think it is a close game tonight.

tOSU 82

FWIW, Valpo is getting $100K from Ohio State to play this game.

So we might have profited 50k, take out the charter flight, hotels etc ! Either way, nice to get cash. Let’s play spoiler and come away with a W?? We’re only +1700 lol!🤪

It should be the same starting five as the last time out. I am hoping we can cover, but I thought we would cover against DePaul on the road, as well. Let’s hope we don’t get down by double digits in the first 10 minutes.

And we thought the Central Michigan game was poorly officiated. The refs might as well take of their stripes and put on the OSU merch right now.

Once again taking a tech is bush league. Powell is pissed and has gotten in confrontations with the stripes multiple times this game.

All Wright is a keeper. DO EVERYTHING WE NEED TO DO TO  GET HIM TO STAY AT VALLPO.

Maybe we could we mortgage the chapel?   Can we sell off some land?

Seriously, if this freshman can score 20+ against THE Ohio State University, we have to keep changing his uni number and changing his name so all the P5 vultures can’t keep track of him.”
