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

[FrankZ]

Good things with Williams on floor today. Keep him on it

 

[RUinOhio]

Keep the pressure up

Illini are folding like a cheap suit

number 3 cant handle it but they keep letting him bring it up

 

[FrankZ]

Huge 3 wow

 

[RUinOhio]

all without cliff

 

[FrankZ]

Refs lol. Jokers

 

[njxchange]

omg - RAC going crazy!!!

 

[RUScrew85]

I don’t know how this is a game

I went to the men's room.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Only comments. Our finishing around the basket is abysmal. I abousloutly love the effort and new pace of play and aggressiveness.
Hey Greg.. this is entertaining..

 

[mildone]

All the hysterical posts and it’s a 3 point game. LOL

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

awful call

 

[Mr Magoo]

Why is Fernandes playing Shannon? Beyond stupid

 

[FrankZ]

Just an absolutely horrific call

 

[Nycrusupporter]

Fernandes almost got killed

 

[FmrMgrRU]

Simpson isn’t very good and he is nowhere near as athletic as Corey Sanders

 

[njxchange]

Wolf - didnt you have whole off season to work on your mid range jumpers???

 

[RedTeam1994]

was 100% a charge

And then to give him continuation?!!!

Abomination of a call

 

[RU Mike73]

Layups and FTs. God awful.

 

[FrankZ]

3 fouled again

It’s a game thread. Comments warranted when posted.

WOLF the aggressor! Love it

 

[koleszar]

Simpson isn’t very good and he is nowhere near as athletic as Corey Sanders

He can't even hit on a shot from the foul line.

 

[RU-Hunter]

Had Davis wide open

It was just a Look at Me comment. Pretty common from that guy.

 

[FrankZ]

Williams 👏

 

[PiscatawayMike]

An Austin Williams appreciation thread is in order...

 

[RUinOhio]

this is winnable....lots of missed opportunities and lots of shitty play it's only 5

 

[njxchange]

okay okay.... lets all take a breath

great come back...

 

[FrankZ]

Take the 5 and run. Comeback stymied by garbage elbow no call for a continuation 3

 

[NickRU714]

Gavin needs to lose the long sleeves at halftime

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Cliff 0 points lol

 

[bac2therac]

Ru got it to 3 but ill take 5 down 41-36

Incredibly in the game because of defensive pressure, timely 3s and with an assist from RAC crowd

 

[mildone]

Great comeback. Built confidence for the second half, hopefully.

Pike doing a great job with the subs.

 

[shields]

Simpson was tremendous vs Howard and now he stinks.

 

[koleszar]

Williams 👏

He needs to stay on the court as much as possible this game. He's found something and its working.

 

[mildone]

Ru got it to 3 but ill take 5 down 41-36

Incredibly in the game because of defensive pressure, timely 3s and with an assist from RAC crowd

And great coaching.

 

[RUGiddy777]

If we could hit layups and FTs, thus game would be a blowout.

 

[RUinOhio]

3 fouled again

I've had it with that kid. But Underwwod keeps riding him so that's in our favor

 

[mugrat86]

Simpson needs to start finishing his fast breaks or start passing on them. Think he is like 2-15 on season

 

[motorb54]

Have to hope the Illini foul problems become a factor.

Cliff has no touch.

 

[Corycord1]

All things considered, have to be happy where we stand at half. Wolf should take Cliffs minutes (at least this game) he has more post moves . Williams looks good give him more run
