Buckeyes look to a future without lone senior Ravenel and possibly top scorer Deshaun Thomas
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Ohio State fans were extremely disappointed after the second-seeded Buckeyes lost to a No. 9 seed, Wichita State, in Saturday's regional championship game in Los Angeles.
They forget that just six weeks earlier their team was coming off a shellacking at Wisconsin that left many wondering whether the Buckeyes could even finish in the top five in the Big Ten — let alone the Final Four in the country.
The Buckeyes (29-8) closed with a flourish, going on an 11-game winning streak that carried them through the conference championship game and all the way to the Elite Eight.
