Good game for Penn State.

Although I hate to dimish a great effort from PSU, Ohio State is not the #2 team in the country. I can name some teams that are better than Ohio State:

Kentucky
Pitt
Florida
North Carolina
Memphis
BUTLER
UCLA
Wisconsin
Duke
Arizona
Oregon
Kansas
Texas A&M

These are just some off of the top of my head. The Big 10 is in some of the worst shape I have ever seen the conference in in terms of basketball. It's really bad this year. :(

I really can't speak to how good or bad the B-10 is in B-ball, I don't pay enough attention to know. I know Ohio State is really young and inexperienced.

Ohio State hasn't done anything. They are seriously the most overrated team I have ever seen. To be #2 in the country is amazing. Of course, UCLA just got pushed to the brink vs. Arizona State :shock:

They played North Carolina and got romped. They played Florida and lost by 26. Not very good :shock: They had their shot at Wisconsin and lost. A decent Tennessee team took them to the brink. A bad MSU team took them to the brink. They beat Michigan by just as much as others are beating Michigan.

Wisconsin is going to stomp Ohio State later this year. It'll be by about 10-15 points. I think Wisconsin is the only "for real" team in the entire conference this year.

I forgot to mention Southern Illinois, USC, Georgetown, Nevada, Marquette, and maybe Washington State. Just a couple others that I didn't say were better than Ohio State.

It's just annoying because I ask myself all of the time, "if you call the Big 12 so-so, then how does the Big 10 get a free pass?"

Here's how I would seed the Big 10 in the tournament this year:

Wisconsin-1 seed
Ohio State-4 seed
Indiana-11 seed

That's it.
