[bac2therac]

Hoiberg has made the adjustments

Will Pije counter?

 

[RU Mike73]

Second

Wrong. First, according to announcers.

 

[Scangg]

Hoiberg has made the adjustments

Will Pije counter?

Offense has gotten nothing going early

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Now if he can just st get into this freaking team for once.

 

[Scangg]

Rutgers needs to attack the rim and get the post T friendly whistle

 

[knight82]

Wrong. First.

He got one against Ohio State at the RAC last year

 

[bethlehemfan]

That was a travel

 

[Scangg]

Rutgers needs to stop this run now and not wait til we get down 15 to start playing

 

[BillyC80]

Gavin!!!

 

[RedTeam1994]

Tominaga is a little punk.

Twice now he’s very demonstrably faked getting fouled in hopes of getting a bs call. Luckily refs didn’t fall for either. Hate floppers like that

 

[RUGiddy777]

Gavin feeling it. Boom.

 

[RU Mike73]

GG from deep. 💣

 

[rubjk]

We like Happy Gavin.

 

[robjknight]

We need a run from the technical to get back in this.

 

[RedTeam1994]

Griffiths - big 3 but then - TOTALLY lost on D and then really bad TO.

want good things for the kid

 

[bac2therac]

Gavin with a 3 is a big positive

 

[bethlehemfan]

That sucks.

 

[Scangg]

Griffiths - big 3 but then - TOTALLY lost on D and then really bad TO

That was actually Hyatt's fault I think. Completely lost his man and switched to Gavin's man for no reason and made Gavin look bad

 

[mugrat86]

This team just can’t rebound. The amount of second chances is ridiculous

 

[Scangg]

This team just can’t rebound. The amount of second chances is ridiculous

Rebounding 28-27 nebby

 

[tm_nj]

Cliff got fouled on his low percentage shot

 

[bethlehemfan]

And that’s why Gavin can’t play.

 

[RedTeam1994]

That was actually Hyatt's fault I think. Completely lost his man and switched to Gavin's man for no reason and made Gavin look bad

You might be right. I was watching Gavin and just saw him standing in the paint guarding neither a man or a spot for a good portion of that possession

 

[Scangg]

Cliff will continue to get the whistle after the blown call and T

 

[RUJMM78]

Nebraska on another spurt with 3 pointers.

 

[RU Mike73]

We are always out of position on defensive glass.

 

[bac2therac]

Just not have the firepower

Will need to keep the under 70 to win but they are on pace for 80

 

[bethlehemfan]

Nebraska on another spurt with 3 pointers.

2 against Gavin. He is too slow.

 

[Corycord1]

GG won’t play until he can keep his man in front of him and rebound.

 

[RutgersChow]

Good for you PIke!!

I've seen worse calls against us How the f$ck do they miss that rake on the arm?!?I've seen

Tominaga is a little punk.

Twice now he’s very demonstrably faked getting fouled in hopes of getting a bs call. Luckily refs didn’t fall for either. Hate floppers like that

For some reason we took Simpson off of him.

 

[BillyC80]

Man, Cliff has no understanding of positioning for rebounds, or fighting for the best position

 

[mugrat86]

Rebounding 28-27 nebby

Are you watching the amount of second chances? Rutgers takes one shot and can’t get one offensive rebounds

 

[Degaz-RU]

Foul shooting. CAN ANYBODY ON THIS TEAM HIT TWO IN A FVCKING ROW?!?!?!

 

[bethlehemfan]

GG won’t play until he can keep his man in front of him and rebound.

He’s really surprisingly slow footed.

 

[Branchrentals]

Didn’t know we would be this bad this year.

 

[RutgersLifeR]

Again, the +/- with Fernandez must be a joke.

 

[Luvscarletknights]

Cliff absolutely mugged but he was in the lane forever before he got the ball and should have been 3 seconds

As long as that justifies the awful call. 😆

 

[Degaz-RU]

In retrospect, Pike’s T was poorly timed. 45-42 to 47-42 and that got Nebby going.

 

[NickRU714]

He’s really surprisingly slow footed.

He needs to not try and help as much in the paint.
Leaves his man open for ball reversals.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

This team just can’t rebound. The amount of second chances is ridiculous

A few baskets earlier Hyatt had the guy boxed but instead of putting his ass into the player he decided to move ce away to other side of basket leaving the guy wide open to rebound and put back.
Btw he ran to the shooting side of rim vs. carry over side. Really smart..not.
