Basketball INSTANT REACTION: Rutgers Basketball falls to No. 24 Illinois 76-58

[RUsojo]

The way pike uses Cliff is the equivalent of if Schiano asked jabu lovelace to drop back and pass 50x a game.

 

[Corycord1]

Lmao what a foul on Wolf? This is why the BIG refs get ****

 

[RUinOhio]

do they call 3 seconds anymore?

 

[BOCA93]

Wtf, back to back terrible calls.

 

[FrankZ]

Back to 11...illinois settling down a bit and we are running out of gas with dreadful moves on offense

Too many dreadful moves today to count

 

[robjknight]

It’s a shame. This was absolutely a winnable game!

 

[brookdale-soda]

we have the right lineup in but they each need to KNOW THEIR ROLE!

do they call 3 seconds anymore?

daylight savings time on that one

 

[greenknight]

Missed 1st half and much of the season so far...but in the 5 or 6 minutes of 2nd half way too much 1 V 1 and not enough passing. Not playing as a team. Need to start kicking it inside out

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

baldy again

 

[RUScrew85]

The way pike uses Cliff is the equivalent of if Schiano asked jabu lovelace to drop back and pass 50x a game.

There are some characteristics the two coaches share.

 

[sct1111]

Worst Pike team since his first season.

 

[biazza38]

At least we’re fast

 

[rufeelinit]

DJ Carstens is not our friend but I thought we got a favorable whistle in the first half. Here is the issue Illinois 39 Rebounds RU 20.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

they dont see any travels on Illinois.. really makes good D fruitless when they can just travel around it

 

[BOCA93]

This bald ref F’ng sucks. Nice acting Hawkins

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Illinois just has better players that can hit shots.
Rutgers will fight, scratch and claw and hopefully can get back into it with help from the crowd

 

[dbegleiter]

Calls are fine. Moves are poor

Wtf, back to back terrible calls.

fine

 

[FrankZ]

Woman in back almost choked on that foul call

 

[bac2therac]

Goodnight Irene

Have to develop an offense Pike

 

[NickRU714]

What exactly is our offensive objective?

Is it get Clif the ball?
If so, why don't we get him the ball close with screens across the lane and have Clif flash to the ball?

This is simple stuff.

 

[Joey Bags]

Game

 

[IL Lusciato]

Abysmal.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

It’s a shame. This was absolutely a winnable game!

Was , the key word

 

[FrankZ]

6-3 fouls. Back to the ref counter

 

[ClassOf02]

Well that run in the first half was fun. Might be a long year folks. Pike has a lot to figure out.

 

[biazza38]

Team is about to quit

 

[njxchange]

oh god...

 

[bac2therac]

Packed it in

15-2 run

No fgs over 5 min

Shitkicked at home

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

SEC Football Championship Game Time

 

[richthedentist]

Hey Pike maybe draw something up to get that guy open?

Not when you don’t run any plays

 

[Mr Magoo]

The refs are the least of our worries

 

[njxchange]

ball movement... our guys are late on switching and looking lost

 

[tm_nj]

can you say beat down?

 

[FrankZ]

Worst Pike team since his first season.

Back to getting trounced at home. No bueno

 

[rufeelinit]

I hope Ace has a well developed offensive game, because using Cliff as a proxy, we don't develop big men on the offensive end. Glad that I need to leave for dinner.

 

[scarletknight077]

When’s the last time we gave up 80+ at home?

 

[richthedentist]

Absolutely not!

do they call 3 seconds anymore?

!

 

[bac2therac]

19-5 run over 8 minutes

Rac starting to empty

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Garbage. Cliff is horrendous. Has regressed every year.

 

[RUScrew85]

Illinois just has better players that can hit shots.
Rutgers will fight, scratch and claw and hopefully can get back into it with help from the crowd

Not after that run.
