Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. Wisconsin

After some questionable play by Baker in the first half, he was a MONSTER in the second half. Twenty-two points! Just awesome.
He really took over. He found another gear; it looked like he just decided that they were going to win if he had to drag them across the line alone.

Now that the game was over I still must say it: Tonight's officiating crew were really bad including some really bad calls on Wisconsin. Just horrible. Especially gray hair man.

And that's what an experienced junior should do. He took over the game.
 
I still feel like we're a better team and should win this game, but if they shoot 50% from three all game, it'll be tough to win.
Don't know why, but I just felt confident we'd win this game if we simply kept up the energy level and played smart and we did, for the most part. Really nice to see a break out game for Geo, too, and Myles is becoming a force for us. Now let's go beat SHU.

This was a great team win because Rutgers was able to overcome the point advantage Wisconsin received from 3 pointers and from the foul line.Baker was outstanding in the second half scoring critical baskets to maintain the lead.Johnson had a good game making dunks and put back baskets.McConnelll probably made the most important basket in the last two minutes of the game with a driving floater shot.

This was a must win type game for Rutgers and they found a way to grind out a hard fought game.Wisconsin was a constant threat to make a spurt because of their 3 point shooters.The crowd was into the game and I'm sure they had some impact on the number of Wisconsin turnovers.The mindset must now quickly move to the challenge of stopping Powell on Saturday.
