The Wolverines put up a much better fight against the Buckeyes than the Spartans. But it still wasn't enough as Jantel Lavender was Jantel Lavender on the inside. According to the box score, Krista Phillips was toyed around with around the block, having no points in 37 minutes of work.
Dayeesha Hollins, Jenny Ryan and Carmen Reynolds ended the game in double-figures. However, only two Ohio State players in double-figures was good enough for the win. This was the Buckeyes closest win in the Big Ten season thus far. Ohio State was limited to 40% from the field, its lowest this season
As many have already alluded to on the UMGoBlue.com boards, this team certainly has the talent. The defense seems to be gelling together slowly although it may have taken a step back against MSU (sidenote: I'm surprised no one has mentioned how key Kalisha Keane was in that contest). Once they gain the confidence to play more aggressively against the top teams in the Big Ten (most are only freshman, after all), we'll be discussing a different issue here.
