What we say about Ohio State
While there has been some significant growth with this team, there still needs to be a better effort on the defensive end. The team is highly efficient on offense and can score from multiple positions on the floor. But there have been a couple of games as of late where there hasn’t been a killer instinct on the defensive end.
Teams that are truly great take care of business against teams they should, and Ohio State is still evolving in that area. Still, with all the fresh faces, injuries, and need to make parts fit this year, the Buckeyes appear to be ahead of schedule. I’m not sure I’d quite put this team up in the top ten just yet, but it’s trending in that direction.
