I'm not bent out of shape by the massive amount of points we gave up the last 10 minutes because I don't necessarily think is is directly attributable to horrible defense, but to free throws and AWFUL offense. If you are not scoring and turning the ball over you are going to give up points.
i went back and skimmed through parts of the last ten minutes, en route to seeing the handshake stuff w. assaley. i agree that the defense, while not great, was not really as bad as 35 in 10 sounds. there were tons and tons of free throws. not just for osu, but also kstate. prolly around half of kstate's offensive possessions resulted in shooting fts with 20 seconds or more on the shot clock. obviously in that type of situ. pts can get scored in very little time.
the sequence where kstate went from up 8 to tied in the span of about a minute was pretty amazing. osu scored 6 of those pts off fts, and kstate only had 2 offensive possessions during the run (judge being called for a foul on a defensive board/loose ball gave osu the other fts).
don't agree at all with the people saying that kstate is good in transition. when you never get into transition, you aren't good at it.
