Basketball INSTANT REACTION: Rutgers defeats Nebraska 87-82 in OT thriller

[NickRU714]

Of course Simpson out of control.

Simpson, Davis, Williams
It's like they are having a nightly competition on who can have the worst drive

 

[Corycord1]

No surprise that this offense is better in this fast pace style, however not sure we can keep up with a track meet. Can the RAC do it’s magic??? Sounds electric tonight

 

[Scangg]

At least our miss layups are almost going in?

 

[BillyC80]

Mag causes havoc on the opponent. Making shots too

 

[Scangg]

So we went on a run. Timeout to rest. Does Pike stick to it? Do we see subs?

 

[RutgersChow]

Gonna lose by 40

I'm done watching. This is Eddie Jordan vs Louisville bad

I think a decent high school team in jersey would beat this team by double digits

Don't be ridiculous.

 

[Scangg]

Believe that is 6 FTs in a row for Wolf!

[robjknight]

We get the lead and Oscar returns

 

[RUGiddy777]

Their shooting isn’t great, but proud of the hustle.

Is Mag colorblind? Just gave the guy the ball

 

[Scangg]

Hyatt playing solid post D and Rutgers doubling is working very well. Solid gameplan by Pike

 

[Scangg]

Is Mag colorblind? Just gave the guy the ball

It was a steal. Tominaga from behind

 

[BillyC80]

Dammit Cliff!

 

[bethlehemfan]

Cmon Cliff. wtf.

 

[pd10124]

Those 30 seconds right there sums up cliffs season perfectly

 

[bac2therac]

RUTGERS went from horrendous defense to elite defense

Nebby doesn't have a fg for nearly 9 minutes...actually 6

 

[rucoe89]

Weak hands Cliff. Seem like he was never coached to be aggressive on the rip down and hold of the ball.

 

[mikeyo]

Those 30 seconds right there sums up cliffs season perfectly

Hands of stone

 

[BillyC80]

Mag and Cliff holding the ball too long and getting it stolen. Very frustrating end off half.

 

[runner3283]

RUTGERS went from horrendous defense to elite defense

Nebby doesn't have a fg for nearly 9 minutes

yet we're still losing..

 

[RutgersChow]

Cliff - get the rebound and chin the ball, and don't bring it down. Can someone please teach him that?

 

[tm_nj]

the guys need to keep their heads on a swivel and watch out for ball poking

 

[NickRU714]

45 seconds
Would have liked us to try and speed it up and go 2 for 1

 

[BillyC80]

Great save by Wplf

 

[NickRU714]

What a terrible rush by Nebraska

 

[robjknight]

Got to be happy with halftime tie!

 

[fatsam98]

Great save by Wplf

Just how Pike drew it up

 

[BillyC80]

Tied at 36 after being down 12. I’ll take it!

 

[bethlehemfan]

Give Gavin some run the second half.

 

[Miggins]

Huge Pet Peeve of mine. Why would you not go for a 2 for 1? Rather we wind the clock down almost guarantee a bad shot. It is not advanced analytics to say if you get 2 shots to opponents 1 you have a BIG advantage

 

[Scangg]

Nice hustle from Wolf after not being able to grab the ball

 

[tm_nj]

tied at the half is about the best I could ask for with the scoring drought

 

[bac2therac]

Nebby no fg last 6:23

RU finishes half on 21-9 run over about 9 minutes

 

[RUNYC13]

What did I just watch

 

[Scangg]

Huge Pet Peeve of mine. Why would you not go for a 2 for 1. Rather we wind the clock down almost guarantee a bad shot. It is not advanced analytics to say if you get 2 shots to opponents 1 you have a BIG advantage

Paging @KK1827

Although it did work out for us this time

 

[bac2therac]

This game comes down to who wins halftime

Pike or Hoiberg

 

[bac2therac]

The Hyatt 3 that was in and out was agonizing

Ru 6 missed foul shots no bueno

Mag is saving us

 

[Corycord1]

Fun game to watch. If the defense plays like it did the last 6 minutes we should win.

We’d have to get a shot off in 5 seconds for that to work. That’s just not going to happen.
