The Ohio State take on the contest …


I thought the Lantern article was quite complimentary to RU, and pretty much on target. OSU knows what it's up against tomorrow.

Not our best quarter. Offense got some looks but we need more ball movement.

Defensive lapses gave a couple of hands free looks. Groundballs. Gotta get em.
 
Let’s go guys … other than Men Soccer winning the B1G tourney been a down year across the board … not expecting a title or Final 4 … but Top 2/3 in conference would be nice!
 
Yeah not a great first quarter, need to pick it up. OSU looks like the much better team right now.
 
Alright … nice defensive stop … it’s a start now let’s get a run!
 
Low angle shot leading to what amounts to a turnover. Game is getting away from us.
 
Now down 6-2 … guess RU will finish 2-3 and in 4th in the regular season … other than softball sweeping Illinois it’s been a participation trophy weekend.

Ahh, yes of course. The rest of the season is totally dictated by the first 1.5 quarters at OSU.

Moronic.

When’s the last time RU was shut out in a quarter … it’s freaking 7-2.

Not beating UMD so that’s 2 losses. RU has done well in the 3Q and has a small chance to come back, but they are having a bad half. Don’t see it.
 
And the Ohio St. D is playing very well and timing their slides nicely.
 
None of our guys are getting separation and the ball is just dying in sticks. No transition scoring and we got beat in the sub game.

Very easy to defend us right now. Conversely, they are moving the ball and look faster which is tough to say because no one would say they are fast.

Not sure of the last time we didn't score more than 4 goals in a half. Just brutal lacrosse right now.

And this is how Ohio St wants to play. They are going to squeeze the life out of the game if they get possessions.

I see RU beating JHU and UM, and losing to OSU, MD and PSU.
 
Terrible half of lacrosse for us. We didn't do anything well.

Our DMids have to get more involved in the offensive end. We aren't going to just out Ohio St in a half field game. That's how the want to play. We need to run and we need to score when we get our chances.

2 goals in a half is not acceptable, not with the talent we have. Hopefully the law of averages comes back.
