#23 The Ohio State University @ Nebraska, Thursday, February 27 @ 9PM, ESPN2

If Kyle Young had a high ankle sprain as reported, there is zero chance he plays this game. The injury status of Kyle may be kept vague as an element of subterfuge - if they know he is going to be out most likely, there is no incentive for OSU to remove all doubt until the game tips off.

My guess he is out tomorrow and less than 50% chance he plays on Sunday.......

Ohio State won't have a pair of forwards on Thursday evening.

Kyle Young (ankle) and Alonzo Gaffney (illness) will miss the Buckeyes' game against Nebraska, a source confirmed to Eleven Warriors. The news was first reported by Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

In their absence, Ohio State will have only eight healthy, eligible players in its lineup, including four big men: Kaleb Wesson, Andre Wesson, E.J. Liddell and Ibrahima Diallo.

Though Chris Holtmann will likely ride a three-guard lineup featuring CJ Walker, Luther Muhammad and Duane Washington Jr. for extended minutes, it'll be incumbent upon Liddell to effectively fill in in the frontcourt.

so we're essentially down to a 7-player lineup. i'm not including diallo, though he may get a few minutes tonight since nebraska isn't the strongest opponent. heaven help us if kaleb and liddell get in foul trouble. kaleb especially better play smart.

Duane's going to have a big night. This is also just the sort of game where A. Wesson randomly goes off.

I feel that in college ball, playing with a small lineup is generally better than playing with two bigs. But yes they need Kaleb to be out there a lot tonight.

Andre may be backup post.

7 guys vs the #32 ranked team in tempo, what could go wrong.

Now luckily they aren’t very good on either side of the court with that speed but still, they’re dangerous enough to bite at home and Bucks certainly can have an off night.

Just want a win but won’t be surprised either way this game goes.
