The lack of fan intensity is understandable and justifiable after so many years of high quality basketball the last eight have been nothing short of a complete disappointment.

Are you actually still going to games? When I bailed on my season tickets after the 2011-12 season, it was because the games weren't exciting (the "brand" of basketball being played), the repeated late-game collapses which left me walking out frustrated, and the complete inconsistency that left me never knowing what to expect.

That's what I saw in the first half as well, at least on offense. Sounds like it was even worse in the second half. 21 points is pathetic, especially given the number of FTs.
I think the team did the job on the defensive end. I know OSU isn't a high-scoring team, but holding any team under 65 is good defense in my book.
