Basketball INSTANT REACTION: Rutgers Basketball falls to Nebraska 67-56

[bethlehemfan]

Aundre killing us

 

[ClassOf02]

tell me when they call "obvious fouls" the other way

They just did…on Alleck. His 3rd.

 

[FrankZ]

Davis 3s assumed miss every time

 

[kcg88]

The thing about turning Simpson discussion into Simpson vs Davis is that neither of them is the answer.

 

[G- RUnit]

Davis finally hit the rim

But let’s rip Simpson!

 

[Shell21]

difference is even their bigs can make 3s and our guards can’t even come close on 3s

 

[RuBird]

Lots of players underperforming but have to say Hyatt should have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express

 

[bethlehemfan]

Nebby filling it up now.

 

[RUIvyKnight20]

Davis finally hit the rim

But let’s rip Simpson!

Davis defense > Simpson defense

 

[Pdabs]

I’m just rooting for Cliff to get one rebound tonight and for Hyatt to keep jacking up shots.

 

[Shelby65]

Is she? How do you know?

Always first into the gym and last to leave according to Bardo, same as all the other USWNT players.

 

[ClassOf02]

Must be nice to be a fan of the other 350 D1 basketball schools that have guys who can hit threes.

 

[Degaz-RU]

Nebby averages 36% on threes, but the most concerning thing is that EVERY SINGLE PLAYER IN THEIR ROTATION averages at least 33%. That’s ridiculous.

They’re 17-1 (9-0) at home, and with their only home loss coming to cross-state rival Creighton, they haven’t lost to a single team who has traveled from outside of the state of Nebraska.

The odds of us winning this game are about 2%.

Said this in another thread. Seems accurate.

 

[RuBird]

Hyatt should be ready to shoot when he’s open at the arc.

Or he just should pass because tonight his shot is way way off.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

I think its fantastic defensive strategy to have Cliff play the perimeter and give up the paint over and over. It's certainly effecting their outside shooting.

(NOT!!)

 

[RU Mike73]

Davis 3s assumed miss every time

But he finally hit the rim. Baby steps.

 

[80RU]

Again though, in quick succession, two three-point misses from us, two makes from them. 15 point game instead of a three-point game.

 

[shields]

They can shoot and we can't.

Back to back lol

 

[Shelby65]

Rather have him shoot rather than Davis or DSelfish.

 

[RU Mike73]

Davis finally hit the rim

But let’s rip Simpson!

You can rip both!

 

[PatrickRU92]

can we f***ing shoot 3s for once before I freaking die???? we've missed countless open 3s. even guys who don't usually shoot 3s make them for nebraska

 

[mildone]

no, you are not wrong. so me me me. everyone else's is about how their school made a difference

Right? It makes her look totally self-absorbed. Makes RU look bad. It’s a team sport. When she was on the team, the entire USWNT was working their asses off.

Again, not her fault. The script is awful. The concept is good (work hard if you want success). But the messaging is off.

Really boggles my mind that we have to suffer thru this trash year after year

 

[RW90]

Only down 11. Imagine if we could put the ball in the ocean.

 

[G- RUnit]

Nice pushing ball up. Nice assist Simpson

 

[socaldave]

Pike pulls Cliff, he is not playing well

 

[G- RUnit]

Nice play by Gavin

 

[RU848789]

2-16 vs. 7-14 from deep. Do we need to say anything else?

 

[ClassOf02]

Stupid there from GG leaving Gary alone.

 

[tm_nj]

Good hard foul GG

 

[FrankZ]

7-14 3s. We shall we say are not

 

[socaldave]

It’s about next year let G G play
Nothing to lose by playing him maybe he gets some experience for next year.

 

[ClassOf02]

I’ll take a lot more of Noah over Simpson (and JMike tonight).

 

[FrankZ]

Up to 2000 front rim 3s now

 

[BillyC80]

Looked like all ball

 

[bac2therac]

Nebby not in sync but RU still down 15...sad

 

[Degaz-RU]

2-18 from deep. Stunningly bad

 

[socaldave]

Just Bad!!!
O great now we get Hyatt

 

[ClassOf02]

Everyone relax, Hyatt just checked back in.
