Within the link above you show the game time at 6pm... just confirming it's at 7pm.

Only way to watch is BTN+ right? I don't really want to subscribe for one game, annoying.

So we are expecting Ace to be out again tonight?

Is St. Peter’s any good?
Results so far are irrelevant, they could have had injuries or bad luck.
Do they have some weapons?

This Will be a tough game. I watched some of their Seton Hall game. St Peter's plays aggressive man to man in your face defense. Nothing comes easy. Will need plenty of ball movement.

Rutgers will get to the foul line a lot so they better be on from the charity stripe.

Ogbole will need to set some walls…I mean screens. Hopefully he doesn’t foul out in the first half and hopefully he can grab some boards. Seems like a game in which Lathan can once again shine.

I’m always so confused on these apps I thought Big Ten plus went away and it became Fox Sports so you use that app and you signed in with your TV subscriber. I’m assuming there is an app called big ten plus. Can you screen mirror this to a television? I assume so. I know annoying to ask but this whole process is annoying now.

Update. Ok so there is an app called big ten plus and looks like I’ve been paying for it all year. Shows up as cleeg on your credit card. I’m all logged in a good to go. Assuming screen mirroring works.

You can cast from the app on your phone to the TV

If you have a smart TV / firestick/roku etc you can download the BTN+ app and play through your tv

I can't believe I paid 13 bucks to watch this game...

Piped in music being played over the fight song for the team coming out a 6 min before game

Shameful Rutgers

A tradition for a century gone

 

[RocktheRac]

Wtf have to hear football bring em out over fight song????

 

[RocktheRac]

Did the players vote that also with the APC?

 

[mildone]

That dude’s eyes are weird.

[bac2therac]

Please stop with the MAKE SOME NOISE piped in

 

[ClassOf02]

2 early OREBs for Ogbole is good.

 

[Salvi's Headband]

Harper visibly frustrated with lack of touches

 

[bac2therac]

The football production on the PA is atrocious

Ozzie all aboard and awful rap

Make it stop

 

[BillyC80]

Need more ball movement and less dribbling

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Just let Hayes shoot every time

 

[Scangg]

Here we go... need the offense to run through the scorers like Harper and Hayes

Lathan huge block

JMike impressive finish

 

[Scangg]

Davis maybe reading the boards and wants to prove the doubters wrong knocking down a mid range after finishing in traffic

Lathan looked like a traffic cone on that defensive possession. Wayyyy too easy

Harper showing heart diving for a loose ball

Only up 16-14...

 

[Degaz-RU]

SPU plays very tight defense. They also do a good job of creating open looks on offense and getting switches.

 

[seansherm]

All the bluster about what Lathan brings to the offense and how there won't be playing through the post and his first attempt is a post feed

 

[winfield102]

Why is Davis shooting a mid range jumper off the dribble??? That is the last shot we want. Hurley would have ripped the player out for that.

I know it went in.

 

[Scangg]

Lathan lowers his shoulder and just plows into the defender and gets the call. Love to see a freshman big want to play aggressive and physical but got away with that one

 

[winfield102]

Time to hit the bench for Williams. Trying to do way too much. This is Harper's team. Period.

 

[Scangg]

Acuff looks like he's trying to be a distributor and doing well at it seeing the floor. Interesting though since my sense was he would be a scorer

 

[bac2therac]

The defense is atrocious

Its as if they didn't scout

 

[Scangg]

Why does Dylan barely touch the ball?

 

[RocktheRac]

Something off

 

[Salvi's Headband]

If they keep raining 3s we're in for a fight

 

[Scangg]

SPU at 56% from 3

 

[RUby RED]

Why does Dylan barely touch the ball?

I don’t know why we’re not initiating everything through him. Dercack and J Will too loose with the ball

 

[ClassOf02]

SPU can’t miss from 3.

We just look like we’re only going downhill to the basket quickly. I’d like to see more quick ball movement and 3 pt attempts. And more touches for Dylan.

 

[BOCA93]

Perimeter D is terrible. How many open look 3s are they going to give SP?

 

[RocktheRac]

Gonna be a nailbiter

 

[Salvi's Headband]

I wouldn't panic. They will cool off.

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Something off

Hopefully it isn't that guy's Ace rumor

 

[Scangg]

Hayes with a nice block in transition. Need to get him open 3's though. Hayes and Martini 1-2 from 3... not enough
