Craft, at one time at least, was leading the Big Ten in steals per game.

No you haven't. Wright has 78 TOs in 35 games; Craft has 76 in 35 games. The truth is OSU turns the ball over more often than UC as a team.

Best on-ball defender in the country.

I voted UC just because. I have a reason, but will not share unless I'm asked.

Against Syracuse and Louisville he had plenty of TOs. Those games just happened within the last 2 weeks

Esp when he's allowed to virtually molest the guy with the ball with his hands like he did yesterday.

I hope I'm wrong but I just don't see how UC can score enough points to win. OSU can put a ton of points on the board and UC wins with defense. I just think it's a bad matchup for UC.

I foresee this thread getting quite out of hand once all the OSU blowhards wake up in the morning. Too bad Mentor Falcon disappeared.

Wright has had his fair share of 5 turnover games. He has been a lot batter this year though. I've said it for a while now that Craft is overrated because he brings very little to the table offensively. Last game was an exception.

Look at the stats, he's never had more than 5 a game.
In addition, Cash averages 2 steals a game; Craft 2.4. Also, UC as a team has more steals than OSU.

What kind of batter? My vote hangs in the balance!

You're probably right. The OSU thread has been awful the last two weeks.

D-Rod just said that Wright has had several 5 turnover games.

Maybe scoring but are counting the ability he brings making key passes and not turning the ball over ?

5 isn't great, but it's not a ton for a pg. certainly wouldn't call it awful, especially since he's played against Syracuse and UL, both with quick guards that can pick. If Cash stays under 5 vs OSU, I'd be happy.

Mentor Falcon will come back to talk about how Drummond dominated Davis in that crazy UCONN-UK game.

Pretty much due to the new people who decided to start posting in the thread one week before the Big Ten Tournament started.

I don't know, he's not that great of a passer IMO. The best part of his game offensively honestly is that he doesn't make a lot of dumb plays.
