I just saw the huge upset by Ohio State defeating the THEN-undefeated Illinois Fighting Illini by one point.
An outstanding game. Ohio State never gave up, even though they were down by double digits at the half. In the last 2 minutes of the game, they got some huge baskets to roll in along with a big block on the defensive end.
At the end, Matt Sylvester was the hero, hitting the deciding basket from beyond the arc to give Ohio State it's only lead with 5 seconds left, and a couple of defensive stops put an end to Illi's undefeated season.
Ohio State won't get into the dance this year, but they just closed their season with a win they'll never forget. I'm sure they won't mind that as a consolation prize.
UPDATE: I bet Deron Williams would like to take
this back from earlier in the week. And I suppose
this website can be shut down too.
College basketball is the focus of the day. I'm watching Kentucky vs. Florida right now, and I will be ready for Duke at Carolina; hopefully I'll have some kind of voice left after that.
You know, sometimes you got to love CBS. CBS Sports, that is.
