Ohio State vs Kentucky Highlights: #5 Buckeyes look solid in win against #6 Wildcats | CBS Sports

Ohio State is built to be one of the elite teams in a predictably unpredictable college basketball regular season. The fifth-ranked Buckeyes played well, hit big free throws and make key plays to knock off No. 6 Kentucky 71-65. Ohio State's calling card is its defense, and that shone through in the closing minutes.

Same lol

[@fr0stb1ght34]

Ditto. OHIO born and breed for a decade before living all over creation practically. Now in the northwest KY. UK fans were not happy with this but I think tOSU has had UKs number for about five years.

[@ngc5195]

Lol UK fans crying about the refs. Have some class and give credit to your opponent for once.

[@jameshanks5400]

Unfortunately as a KY fan. Ky was overrated and overhyped. Is it the coaching, the pre-Madonna 5star players or a mixture of both? Calipari gets some of the best recruits in country but it seems he can’t do anything with them. Of course the one done status doesn’t help either. I really think players either go straight to NBA or stay 3 years like baseball and football. I would rather have a 3 star recruit that stays 4 years and develops than a player that stays 1 year and does not reach his full capabilities or development. Just my humble opinion. The Buckeyes are a top 5 team for sure, KY I would say in the 20’s for sure but not top 15 right now.

[@kevintruitt5886]

*prima donna, not pre-Madonna lol

[@captainmarvel9610]

Also a UK fan. I think Cal hasn't recruited that well since about 2015. We lost out on a bunch. We got good kids but not the best of the best like John Wall or Anthony Davis. Shooting this year has killed us. Obviously moving the line back has Been hard on our freshman.

[@oldudeDMV]

We beat basketball blue bloods and lose to Minnesota! But nonetheless GO BUCKS!

brutus301 exactly like Kentucky fans need to chill out ohio state played better than they did

[@489hurley]

Dont let the refs decide a game.

[@Sinister_Six]

The refs didnt decide the game, but they helped OSU. They didnt do it on purpose but they had way more bad calls in OSUs favor. The tictac fouls they called on UK, the 6 step walk at the end, then fouling out Nick Richards 30 seconds after he goes in every time. OSU was the better team, but they also got a lot of help.

CBS, a word of advice. Don't put the final score in the thumbnail, its literally pointless.....

Although if you're watching highlights, you've probably already seen the game and/or the final score, so it doesn't matter either way

[@jazzyprince3335]

@@alphabuckeyelion2233 Uh, some people come to the highlights cuz they missed the game. So putting up the final score ruins the experience for them, and it doesn't enhance the experience for people who watched the game already. So again, it's pointless

[@yoursports6910]

Kentucky always gets the best recruits but never does shit with them Makes you wonder why it’s such a popular option for highschool kids wanting to play on a good team

[@Himpeake]

I agree with you on how they don’t do anything with them, and that’s coming from a Kentucky fan, but I think most high school kids want to go there because it’s usually a pretty good top 5 program and they probably look up to all the great players from therr

[@yoursports6910]

Willboy 07.11 Yeah I agree I’m just a little salty that the best teams get all of the best players every year in college I feel like there should be a rule limiting a team to only 3 5 star recruits a year to give other teams a chance

[@koningowen]

@@yoursports6910 I feel you but i do think teams earned a reputation that get's them all these great recruits.

[@RCmack]

Because they can go straight to the pros afterwards, while often playing just one season in college. Nobody is better than John Calipari with one and done players.

[@lovesthebass]

They never have any chemistry because they have to constantly refill the ranks. Kentucky is nothing but a carousel for the NBA. That would be hard for any coach.

It's a very wipe open season this year. Anybody of about 15 different teams have a great chance of winning it all! Hell, there's a better than remote chance of a team like Coppin St. making the final four!

[@miamicaneno1]

Maybe it’s me BUT 1- when maxey is 2 steps ahead of the field why are you laying it up softly ? Maybe I’m used to monk slamming it. But we are down 1 he gets it block, OSU scores. They never trail 2- richards and Montgomery. Are pathetic, and people celebrated He came back lol Why in the hell cal brags these 2 soft guys up is beyond me 3- how many 2 foot shots can our bigs and hagens miss . Jesus man 4- calls lack of recruiting a true center is crazy, since bam no center here has any fight or muscle 5- cal has too short of leash on the shooters on this team, while richards continues to get minutes and foul trouble

and you forgot to mention whitney is simply overated has alot of work to do and did you know mock draft has him going first round come on are they watching the same player as we are

[@jaylew889]

CBS. In the future maybe dont plaster the final score in the thumbnail. A decent amount of people who come to KZbin for the game highlights and recap weren't able to catch the game and its sorta nice to watch without knowing the outcome. Now it's the equivalent to an old fashion on the outside of the jeans

hard to beat a team that shoots 27 ft to 13 not to mention the ridicuous offensive calls against the cats and some out of bounds calls im sure yu will agree about the one that os went to dunk and literally last the ball oob
