The Irish lose by 5, on a neutral floor, to an athletic Ohio State squad.
The key--Kyle McAlarney didn't make a single 3 point shot.
When that happens, when they don't make shots, the Irish struggle.
Sounds like they got a little out-worked; if they want to go far this March, they're going to have to work for it.
At the same time, I think the Big 10 conference in basketball is going to be tougher than people think this year. See the Big 10 holding its own this year in the Big 10/ACC challenge, and Michigan upsetting Duke yesterday.
