Who on this board said Ohio St. was overrated?

Ohio State will lose their next game and then we will see who the idiot is, hah ahah a ah ah aha ha haha h!

All the way baby.

"His name was Xavier." Hee-hee. I get jokes.

They are not overrated. Just rated lower than the team that is going to win monday.

I did.

Florida played better than all the teams tonight. I was pulling for the Bruins. OSU might win Monday if Florida has an off night. I just hope it's a close game.

By the way..... that freshman Oden could pass for a forty-year-old in appearance.

so could alan webb when he was a teen and haile and lebron etc etc

That Noah dude bothers me. The rest of the Florida team seem okay guys but he acts like a 2 year old. From the Florida games I have seen (not that many I admit) he is at best the 3rd best guy on the team, so I wonder why he is always the one they interview and show in highlights. I'd rather watch Sanjaya sing than see his ugly mug win another NCAA title.

i'll second that. but i hate how much press oden has gotten this season. I didn't think he was THAT good. So its a tossup. Who do I like least, oden or noah?

Second the thought about the obnoxious Mr. (or Mrs.) Noah, whatever he is. That stupid hair is distracting to the opponent, and I for one hope would pay to see it get pulled out by the roots on national TV. Hopefully on Monday night.

A couple of those fouls called on Hibbert and Oden were unbelievably ticky-tacky. Geez, even ticky-tacky is too strong of a phrase. Some of those "fouls" didn't even result from anything. Not just this game, but much of the tournament. When a smart player like Hibbert is in foul trouble many games, then CHANGE THE REFS AND/OR THE RULES.

His/her name was Xavier. What do you have to say now, Xavier?

Hey, they did look good today. In fact, they won me over, but Fla is going to be tough. The truth of the matter is, OSU got VERY lucky with Xavier. I would call that a game that, by all means, they should have lost. Had the Xavier coach fouled instead of allowing OSU to hit the last second 3, well I'd say it would've been all but over. That's the beauty of the tourney, though. Hopefully it's a good game on Monday.

Good game. Closer than the final score.

who won?

Are you the stupidest person in the world?

The only person who could surpass your stupidness is Greg Oden if he doesn't go pro next year.

He will avg 20 points and 11 rebounds next year as a rookie.

Ohio State over-rated. Florida answered that question Monday night.

He didn't average that this year in college. What makes you think that he will do that in the far more physical NBA? The kid looks good- don't get me wrong. Great footwork, quickness, athleticism, and a soft touch. I'm still amazed at his free throw shooting ability. He's still raw, though. No chance he averages 20 and 11 as a rookie. In a couple of seasons, yes.

More one on one.

Average 32-35 minutes a game

Wrist fully healed

Compare his skills to Amare Stoudamire

Stoudamire avg 20+ and 9 his second year out of high school at 6'10 245. Oden at same age and 7'0" 270 will easily hit those numbers if healthy. Duncan avg 21 and 11 his rookie year.

Everyone tries to find what players can't do exceptionally well instead of looking at what they can do.

Lebron was the same way. He played 2 games on national tv and everyone said he couldn't shoot. They didn't see the multiple games he hit 6 or 7 threes in high school. The game he played in New Jersey against the #8 team in the country, he had 32 points at half time and didn't even have a dunk. He hit 6 threes and jumpers from everywhere. He is a career 33% on three pointers and that is not even his strength compared to his ability to get ti the bucket.

Oden has virtually the same college stats as Ewing, Olajuwan,Duncan, and Sampson and he played half the year with one hand!!!!!!!

Oden would be the fifth best center in the NBA right now behind Duncan, Yao, shaq, and Jermaine O'Neal.
