#15 UC-Santa Barbara +16.5 vs #2 tOSU (ov/un 132.5) Fri 9:45 ET, CBS

This is my exact sentiment. It is what makes tOSU such a dangerous team. Turner can have an off night, but other guys will step up and they hardly skip a beat.

It definitely got me confident about their game Sunday vs GA Tech...

It's a big boost of morale when a team can play well without their POY putting in an outstanding effort...

...of all of the top 3 seeds throughout the tournament, Ohio State definitely made a statement that they're balanced, disciplined and ready to make a run.

I may be in the minority, but I am happy that Turner wasn't able to produce tonight. In his absence everyone else stepped up and filled the gap. They needed to prove to themselves that they can do that.

I think this is what we are going to the rest of the way. Every time ET got the ball inside the arc it seemed he was triple teamed. As long as Evan recognizes this and the other guys do their part we will be fine. The key to our team at this point is not Evan Turner, it is Buford. When he plays with himself and scores points, we are darn near unbeatable.

DUDE.............................

Well, he's right...

...if he can do that AND score points he's definitely unstoppable

Line makers are scary accurate. Bookies just broker the deals.

I know what you are saying though. If you ever talk to one of those guys you'll be amazed. They know what time the fucking tide comes in for coastal NFL cities because it makes the ground softer and how that should affect the spread. They know what the sub surface of a playing field is. Shit like that. Its unreal.
