It was definitely their worst game but I wouldn’t exactly say they played well offensively in the other three games either, especially down the stretch in Miami. When you don’t have one player on the team that can create their own shot semi consistency you’re going to struggle. This team will win with defense.
If Tyree misses the game there is no reason it should be close. Fingers crossed!
When we were going to Cliff to start the second half against Miami we were taking over the game and Laranagga had to call time out. We missed a bunch of chances to expand the lead and our defense of all things , let us down as Mag went under 2 screens and they hit 2 big three pointers keeping them close .
Ohio state was a good offensive performance. For Miami, Indiana and temple we shot under 40% in each game. Ohio state looks to be like the outlier here.
We would have gotten the hall back with closer to two seconds and we probably wouldn’t have scored. Crying about the refs in this game is a bad look. We got outplayed. Pike knows this and will look to fix it.
Just watched it. About 4 seconds. The second he touches the ball it's a dead ball since he was already out
Wisconsin was behind with Lehigh and struggled to win in 2nd half.
Virginia had better offensive players.
It’s just weird how some fans can’t handle the truth about games. Yes we should have gotten the ball back if your first thought after that game was we got unlucky then you’re just lying to yourself. That’s not healthy and kinda sad.
I can hold two thoughts. 1. We played terrible. 2. We got screwed by the refs at the end... again.
They literally mentioned 3-times during the broadcast that finals were last week aficionado us why I said I was right, however, they began Friday and end this week so apparently most of the week was NOT finals but prep-time.
Yes and we really don’t know what each player’s finals schedule is. I remember doing a hospital visit with the team a couple of years back and at least two guys couldn’t make it because they had finals on the last possible day of the schedule.
No, you were not right at all. You literally asked if the students were even still on campus, ha ha.
These posts rarely end well.
So you think Rutgers is skilled offensively now? Lol you’re the same people who will be the throwing a tantrum in the next game day thread when we’re 2-13 on threes. You just never learn.
"You're the same people" "You just never learn"
You act like it’s an accomplishment to have seniority on this board lol. Yikes 😬. I was speaking in general terms. Everyone is so cocky after a win but then throws a tantrum after a loss. It’s very weird behavior.
Odd take. That's extremely normal and predictable behavior. People get cocky when they win not when they lose. People throw tantrums after losses not wins
Nothing to do with being an accomplishment. It's extremely suspicious when "new" posters come in and introduce themselves by saying "you people always do/say x, y, z"
It's both generally correct (not specifically about this board) but also very weird behavior. Makes sense!
I don’t throw tantrums and I don’t make dumb nonsensical statements either. Rutgers is a defensive first team. They always will be under Pike. Doesn’t mean they don’t have skilled offensive players. it’s just a silly comment.
It’s predictable. It’s not normal, though. Is common with a certain type of obsessive sports fan, sure. But everybody observing from outside the obsession bubble sees immediately why fan is short for fanatic.
The game threads are ridiculous. People act like they have never seen a team go on a run before. Many act like every shot has to be made and every defensive possession has to be a stop
The idea that a grown man (or woman) would take pride in the number of posts they've made on a sports message board is almost too ridiculous to be real. But here we are.
Overall we are not a very skilled offensive team. The fact that you’re offended by this is kinda crazy. What have you been watching this year?
Not even close. I was in the minority in the wake thread by predicting a double digit win solely because Pike will have them ready to play. He gets the most out of his players and once he picks up the recruiting which he’s starting to do I have high hopes. Sorry this reasonable opinion makes me a troll 😂.
You have a reading comprehension issue apparently. Scroll up and try again. Fluoxetine even explained it nice and simple for you.
