Word.
But yo, we should have doubled Northern State's score.
wow the Big ten may have to drop to D2 level .... the D2 schools seem to be giving them a run for there money in all sports now!
on a more serious note the only bad thing about this is that the Badgers arent the ones who lost to the D2 school 8) otherwise its all good!
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Marcus Parker scored 18 points to lead Findlay to a 70-68 victory over Ohio State on Tuesday night, the second time in a week a Division II school beat a Big Ten team in an exhibition game.
On Saturday, Grand Valley State beat No. 8 Michigan State, the conference preseason favorite, 85-82 in double overtime.
The Big Ten made headlines this way to start the football season when then-No. 5 Michigan lost 34-32 to Appalachian State from the Football Championship Subdivision.
Jamar Butler hit a 3-pointer with 1:52 left to bring the Buckeyes, who have one starter back from the team that lost to Florida in the national championship game in March, within 70-67. He later made a free throw with 4 seconds remaining to pull the Buckeyes within two points, but Ohio State was unable to regain possession as time expired.
Morgan Lewis had 15 points and Josh Bostic added 13 for the Oilers.
Butler finished with 22 points and Kosta Koufos added 20 for the Buckeyes in their final exhibition game. They open the regular season on Nov. 12 against Wisconsin-Green Bay in the NIT Season Tip-Off.
Freshmen Greg Oden, Mike Conley Jr. and Daequan Cook all left Ohio State after last season for the NBA.

The BADgers only play DIII teams this year in exhibition, otherwise they possibly could
I remember after Michigan lost to App. State in football the Big Ten Network ran ads saying you could see it live only on the Big Ten Network.
They could run a whole series of these ads now! :D

Considering the Badgers are one of the few decent non-conf games, i hope they have a great year. Hoping for a lousy Badger teams hurts our non-conf strength of schedule.
That Big Ten Network could be featuring a slew of Godawful games this winter. The Badgers will be OK, though, and won't hurt our SOS.
