Basketball INSTANT REACTION: Rutgers Basketball falls to Minnesota 81-70

[RUJMM78]

Minnesota starting to choke under pressure defense but it might be to late.

 

[tm_nj]

Garcia with the offensive foul no?

 

[G- RUnit]

Damn

 

[pd10124]

That’s an atrocious foul call

 

[Scangg]

Complete bail out

 

[BOCA93]

Garcia did exactly what Hyatt got called for

 

[RUIvyKnight20]

Feel good about Simpson taking that there

 

[BillyC80]

We’re fouling the wrong guys

 

[koleszar]

Man if Simpson only made that wide open 3. O well let's hope we win enough to make the NIT.

 

[robjknight]

How’s that a foul on Mag?

foul shouldn't have been on Garcia

 

[tm_nj]

we needed that Derek shot in order to win. oh well

 

[RUChoppin]

Too little too late in this one.

 

[rufeelinit]

The gray haired guy never seems to be in position to make the calls that he does.

 

[FinalFourOrBust]

So resort to name calling. Speaking of trash. And BTW couldn’t be further from the truth. Have a nice night.

I mean you know you started it first. Take accountability and stop being white trash 😂

 

[G- RUnit]

Simpson keeping us in game.

 

[RUinOhio]

foul shouldn't have been on Garcia

Garcia is soft as charmin

 

[RU MAN]

Hey Pike where was this pressure the whole game?

 

[RUChoppin]

Really wish Minnesota returns the favor with their own late collapse

 

[RUJMM78]

Rutgers needs 3 pointers but Simpson is the only option.

 

[Bobbydigital_83]

love Pike, but surprised we didn’t pressure them or do something earlier other than a weak 2-3 zone

 

[RU Mike73]

I mean you know you started it first. Take accountability and stop being white trash 😂

Didn’t say anything about you. Commented on your KenPom guy. To ignore you go.

 

[BOCA93]

Why’d pike wait till last 2 minutes to turn up the D? Smh

 

[RutgersChow]

This game is another realty check as to the need for massive changes in the roster for next season to complement the freshmen class.There are too many players that are poor shooters that need to be replaced in the transfer portal.

They'd be better shooters if the staff got them better shots - at least a little better.

 

[RU MAN]

Rutgers needs 3 pointers but Simpson is the only option.

Sad.

 

[RUChoppin]

Hey Pike where was this pressure the whole game?

Foul trouble on Mag, partly

 

[Caliknight]

The way we ended the first half bled into the second. Simpson taking an ill advised 3 led to a breakout finish to tie the game and momentum. That went immediately into the second half.

It’s just not a winning play and those add up. Love the effort coach Pike teams play with but the collective IQ of our team is not very high.

 

[Scangg]

Hey Pike where was this pressure the whole game?

Can't press when you don't make shots

 

[RU848789]

Fouling the wrong guy on the 1:1s.

 

[biazza38]

What was that foul

 

[RU MAN]

Foul trouble on Mag, partly

No. He should have pressured the start of the second half.

 

[G- RUnit]

Williams slips again. WtF with Adidas sneakers?

 

[runner3283]

Simpson keeping us in game.

When earlier he was totally out of control. Inconsistent at best.

 

[greenknight]

Perfect ex. Awilliams should have picked up charge. The middle was covered all he had to do was move his feet and cover the sideline , he chose to reach instead there was nowhere else for Hewitt to go...that's just lazy

 

[RU MAN]

Can't press when you don't make shots

I understand. But since we pressed we went on a15-5 run.

 

[Plum Street]

Hyatt doesn’t like Minnesota

 

[Scangg]

Hawkins throws a lot of scary floating passes

 

[RU848789]

Oh well, nice run to cut it from 17 to 6, but the problem was the terrible first 15 minutes of the 2nd half. Missed opportunity to take down a beatable team on the road.

 

[GotEmmm]

Williams slips again. WtF with Adidas sneakers?

Jesus dude do you work for Nike?

 

[BillyC80]

Started trapping too late

 

[Scangg]

Well just go beat Purdue now
