Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. Minnesota on Thursday night
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
Yes - especially considering we literally lost the game in the exact same place the exact same way last year.
Hyatt not taking the ball across half court lead directly to one of Paul’s turnovers though. The other one was just a fluke deflection off his forearm.
Yet another game of late where you'd hardly know he was on the sidelines. I'm surprised he wasn't singing songs along with Rieber.
Yes we easily can and possibly should. This is an awful loss. It would be like going to Rider and losing.
Dumb. Then dumb. Then double dumb.
Why didn't Hyatt cross center line then hold and wait for help?
Why didn't we cover the inbounds to make them pick it up, saved them three steps which has to be 1 second plus?
Why didn't Cam stay with his man instead of swiping at Calebs man, then stay in front of his man instead of crossing passed him?
And re Pike: What the f**k with a lineup of Palmquisk, Reiber, McConnell, Simpson and who was it and let Gophers go on a mini-run to keep it close?
And Paul was bad again tonight?

The last game of our regular season has huge implications once again... nothing changes on the banks
The fact that Paul has looked like a shell of himself is the biggest problem. When is enough enough of having someone in late games throw bad passes, not handle the ball properly. Pike has to let Derek play who is an 80 percent ft shooter. And this 2-3 zone nonsense against THE WORSE TEAM IN THE LEAGUE like play man Jesus. Man the f up. What r we doing. Wisconsin we kept doubling a kid with 6 total points. We call an inbound play for Paul who had 4 total points vs my 20 pt scorer with a 92 pt ft percentage. Like what 👏 are 👏 we 👏 doingggggg
Yes, Hyatt made Paul turn it over. Just stop. Paul is the reason we lost. Pike gave him way too many minutes
No not with this loss. 11-9 probably isn’t enough. We’d have a shot at Dayton but that would likely be best case.
It's on the players
Why? Because Cam is the only one we have that can shoot a FT there? He needs to advance the ball past mid court. That has to be his priority in that situation.
Cam fell for the pump fake. Can't blame the guy for hitting a game winner at the buzzer.. should have never been in that situation.
BIG ten will review the clock eff up and award RU the victory and give us the OHio state game too.

Hyatt just has to cross half court and wait to get fouled or throw it to cliff
No, one more win. Possible we still get in losing out
Just bc it was an epic collapse doesn't mean it counts as an extra loss
We played shit defense all night. Mulcahy has been a choke artist at the end of games his whole career. And McConnell always blows free throws down the stretch. We played stupid basketball and we deserved to lose. Disgraceful.
Why would
Spencer was open on the final inbounds and Paul just looked away from him or was afraid. Then went to Caleb.
This team just needs to foul and send the other team to the line. Bc for someone reason they can't defend on the last possession of games. I'm dead serious, just foul and take yout chances in overtime or hope they miss a free throw
Worst case scenario RU loses to NW and in B1G tourney to finish 18-14 … guaranteed NIT no matter what.
Chance to do history (3 years on a row). Kiss of death. Loss to the bottom 3 teams in the league (Neb/OSU/Minn).
Never ever thought losing this game was possible.
Maybe team pulls out the miracle on Sunday.

RU batting 50% in getting ball out of bounds under pressure. Sick that hasnt been addressed. Last year too.
I’m not. I expected them to gag it away the last 20 seconds from what I was seeing
