The ups and downs of a season the length the body work that you have to put in. I cant disagree. Clark agreed, 100 there. Kevin you know in a lot of circles, the success is how you perform in the tournament. When you look at those two issues i think thats outside of the players and the coaches. Thats public, media. But within the walls of the game conference championships and hanging those banners, heck, i played three years here and we came close twice. Still one of my great regrets as a player not being able to win a conference championship. Kevin 3 1 2 to play. Craft has been sensational. Igniting the comeback they were down by 6 at halftime. Down by as many as nine. Buckeyes storm back for a lead of ten. You see where they are now. Heres the drive by scott. Rebound by payne. Collects another with a shove. Payne has 14 rebounds. The buckeyes pick up another foul. Clark this is going to be interesting, kevin. Because ohio state has done a really good job in the second half of executing late in the shot clock. They want to use time but thats not the strength of this team all season. So can they show the ability to get quality shots late in the shot clock while theyre trying to milk clock and get something good in the offense. Kevin and clark for Michigan State, they miss important free throws late, couple of nights ago against indiana. They have been very good at the line most of the season late in games. That was not the case against the hoosiers looking to redeem themselves this afternoon. Clark one of the advantages they have in this kind of a game in this kind of a situation is their two big guys combine shoot 77 from the line. Kevin good point. Clark derrick nix and adreian payne, you know theyre going to be throwing the ball inside to those guys. And the ability they have to knock down free throws both well for your chance at being able to come back from a deficit. Kevin payne is number 5 in the conference in freethrow shooting, 80 . 610, number five in freethrow shooting. We saw some of it right there. Clark and Michigan State has to defend without fouling. If you are Michigan State you have to back off craft and scott and see if they can make a perimeter shot. Kevin picked off by harris. And theyll take it away. Clark thats a block. Kevin and that is a foul what a play by the freshman gary harris. The steal and the two at the other end. Clark Deshaun Thomas trying to get there to take the charge. But he leads right in and foes underneath harris. And i think in that situation, as a defender, you cant be thinking about taking a charge. Youve got to make an aggressive play on the ball. Make him earn the trip at the line. But to step in where the ball handler can see it as hes coming with his dribble alive, and can avoid you. I just dont think thats a good play. A lot of coaches teach that, run back there and take a charge. I think its the wrong strategy. Run back there and try to make a play on the ball player. Kevin 2point gain harris with 14 1 for2 for nix, 12 for payne. The luck eyes will take a timeout, 2 30 to play. Ohio state, holding on. Kevin tonight on cbs, begins with 60 minutes presents one of the navy seals who shot bin laden. Followed by an episode of the amazing race, mentalist and good wife. Only tonight on cbs. Tom izzo klimes back from a 10point deficit, turnovers have been huge they usually cash in 2 35 to play. Clark Michigan State has made this run to get back to within two by getting inside drawing fouls, and knocking tune the free throws. This is a 7zip run. Ohio state has to be aggressive. They cant look to milk this clock. They want to execute and try to get something earlier in the shot clock. Try to put pressure on Michigan State defense by attacking. Kevin craft, again, doing it all game long. Diving for two, 18 for the game. Clark love it. Kevin appling the other way, knocked away by craft. And a reachin. And a buckeye foul. Clark i really love this action by ohio state. Not interested in trying to milk the clock. Ravenel does a nice job holding off dawson who couldnt turn it. Then craft, a little overzealous here. He got the ball with his right hand but a lot of body and reachin with the left. Easy call for the official. And thats where crafts eagerness and intensity has to be tempered. Game clock situation, you dont want to give up free throws. Thats exactly what Michigan State wants. Opportunities to score with the clock stopped. Kevin craft, picks up his second personal foul. Threepoint game. Appling, at the line. Knocked in his first freethrow. Remember he struggled from the line late in the game against indiana. Missing it, a crucial freethrow right there. Clark still a onepossession game i think the buckeyes go right back to the same strategy. Whatever can you run to get a quality shot early, thats what you try to do. You dont want to force it but attack early in the shot clock. Take the pressure off your on fence. Off ense. Kevin appling on craft. Ravenel, dawson. Scott, harris defending. Shot clock at five. Appling is on him, craft to the rack, cant get it to go. Ravenel trying to dig it out. Wow what an effort what an effort. Clark fantastic. Fantastic by number 4. He almost had that shot to go. Good work by ravenel as well. Kevin and craft flying over the pile. Clark and because of that the buckeyes retain possession because of the held ball. The arrow in the buckeyes favor. And a bull shot clock, close the a full one, 33 seconds remaining on it. This is where you want to try to execute and utilize some of that clock. Kevin 1 for thomas. 14 for thomas. Craft has 18. Clark buckeyes struggle against ranked foes all season, kevin. 17, against ranked on opponents. Another reason why this is so significant. If they can hold on. Kevin thomas. Clark oh wow. Kevin ravenel, knocked away he thought he had all ball, picks up the foul. Clark i tell you, ravenel bailed out the buckeyes. Because thats a kind of a soft shot attempt by thomas. And valentine did get a lot of the ball there. Ravenel may have been bumped underneath. Kevin payne, you have to call it, number four on payne. Four of five freethrow shooting for ravenel, who graduated in december, came as a transfer from Boston College where he played 39 games, elder statesman on the Team Terrific guy for this team to bring off the bench. Clark good at the line today, 4 of 5. Hes 5 of 6 now. Kevin 62 freethrow shooter, nix is in for dawson. Two timeouts, spartans with four. Fivepoint lead. Ohio state, has been money at the freethrow line today. 16 of 17. And they smell blood looking for a defining win for this season, it will come, can they hold on against number 4 Michigan State.

Tom izzo has an inventory of plays that he likes to call. Hell look to do something insideout here, i think. Youre in the bonus, both teams in the double bonus. You want to try to attack the rim. You have got a laser threepoint shooter in gary harris. You have a big guy who can shoot the three. And adreian payne. I think you play inside and try to go through nix. You never discount looking at a perimeter shot for a good shooter. Kevin appling right through paynes hands. Clark look how jammed up Michigan State is. A as a result, not a good passing angle. That has to beter pli frustrating when tom izzo called the timeout. Then the execution goes lacking. Kevin dawson checks back n. Clark youre in a position here, i dont know if you can afford to go the full shot clock without fouling. Maybe 10 or 15 seconds. Then you have to foul. [ man ] action cut.

An important fame for both buckeyes down by nine they have led by 10 up by 5 a little over a minute to play. Clark defense in the second half has been the difference. Catalyst is craft. Contribution from a number of players. Ravenel, thomas got his offense going. Now you have to get it in without turning it over. Kevin thompson looking, looking. Clark five seconds. Kevin sure is. What defense. Clark he had a timeout there, he could have used. Thompson did. You dont like to waste it in that situation but the turnover is more costly than expiring your timeouts there. Kevin a lot of Young Players have their fingerprints on this game. You grow up in a hurry in this conference dont you . My goodness. Clark well see what Michigan State tries to do. They did not get they turned it over the last time in this situation. Kevin johnson will inbound. Nix, appling, valentine. They go deep. Dawson cant get it. Ravenel had it. Picked up by thomas. Clark got to foul right away. Kevin scott and ravenel. Clark they got to foul. Wow, they let a lot of time go. A lot of time elapsed. Kevin valentine picks up number four. The buckeyes to their credit, you know dont have a loss to a team they shouldnt have lost. To they just dont have anything of real substance to hold on to. Clark right. Kevin a win to hang their hat on. Clark this could be one, no question about it, this would be one. Kevin he 1z of 1 from the freethrow line, sam thompson. Hes 1 of 1. Payne in for dawson. Hmm. Clark you dont need a three in youre Michigan State, you just need a quality shot, and quickly. Kevin appling, payne picked up. Clark using a lot of time here. Too much time here. Kevin appling, rejected by ravenel. Picked up by the buckeyes, craft is fouled. Oh the senior ravenel coming up and putting it away. Clark he has had a huge day offensively. And defensively. This may have sealed it. Execution, great job here by ravenel. Excellent timing. Going against the much taller appling. I tell you the last couple of possessions by Michigan State, left a lot to be desired. They had a turnover after calling a timeout with the ball on the sideline. That time, used way too much time to try and get into offense. Kevin appling, who is the goto guy all season long for tom izzo 1 of 8 against indiana, 1 of 6 2 of 1 his last two games, they needed more from their leading scorers, 1. 8 a season 13. 8 a game. And a timeout taken by Michigan State. The lead is 6660, buckeyes 18 seconds to play. [ male announcer ] the next wave of italians has come to america, and the fiat 500 with beats audio is rockin the block. The italian designed fiat 500. Kevin under 18 ohio state, led in the second half by aaron craft. The junior if findly ohio. He has 19 points in the game. 15 in the second half. He got this team lit in the second half after they trailed by 6. Clark no question about it. His ability to get to the rim, hes always pesky. Defensively. You got to look for a three if you are Michigan State. And, again, no real sense of urgency by the spartans. Kevin payne with the smaller scott on him. Ravenel comes up, big with the rebound. The buckeyes are going to win it. They were looking for that defining game and they have captured that defining win for this season. A testament to the program, how tough this conference is they lose the second after troping wan to the hoosiers, number one indiana earlier in the weak. Earlier in the week. Clark right. Kevin well the screws have been tightened a little bit huh, in this conference. Clark you didnt expect anything less, did you, partner . In terms of what this race is going look like the rest of the way. Kevin we talked to thad before the game you could sense that he didnt want to build it up too much. But in his mind he knew what this would mean. Clark so, too, did the players. And they came out and responded. Particularly in the last 20 minutes. Kevin craft with a new career high 21 points leading the buckeyes two close friends, big win for ohio state. Their 20th of the year second consecutive loss for Michigan State.

Three priests and a former cleric have claimed that Cardinal Keith obrien in scottland engauged in inappropriate contact with them 30 years ago.

Reporter the warm reception seemed to energize the pope who thanked god for sunshine anyone stead of the predicted rain. What you dont see much evidence of here is security. But theres plenty of it. Snipers are reportedly in positions overlooking the square and there are plain Clothes Police mingling in the crowd, some even dressed as priests.
