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

[The RUT]

Cliff's offense still tough to watch

They need to just lob it to the guy.

They give him the ball so far from the basket and expect him to do something

 

[bac2therac]

Tominanga out hurts them

 

[RUJMM78]

Well, this team has accomplished one thing this year. They made the RAC sound like a morgue. Good job guys.

The crowd has impact when Rutgers has a pulse on offense.They did so near the end of the first half but the second half its back to scoring droughts.

 

[NickRU714]

WTF is up with this guys shoulder?
Did he fight a tiger pregame?

 

[Luvscarletknights]

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

The ref needs to show a little thicker skin. That was quick

 

[Mr Magoo]

why is Fernandes playing so much?

 

[RutgersChow]

At this point Gavin, Hyatt, Mag, Simpson have to play the rest of the game

Not sure they're capable of figuring that out.

 

[koleszar]

Gavin can’t play defense. He’s part of the reason we are down 10

Is Palmquist really any better on D?

 

[The RUT]

They do rotation by time on the clock, not by who's shooting well.

Crazy. Guy was smiling having fun and he goes to the bench. Have to ride that sometimes

 

[RuWishBone]

Here we go

 

[The RUT]

LETS GO.

 

[BillyC80]

Here we come!

 

[The RUT]

Mag like 💪💪💪

 

[richthedentist]

FOUL SHOOTING!!

 

[robjknight]

We need 3 Mag's on our team!!

 

[Scangg]

Momentum changing hairball! Leggoooo

Mag grown man move!

Pikiell was pretty clearly hunting the technical call imo. Refs usually let a guy yell at them once down the court. When he kept going he got it. Really dumb to get it when we had the ball though, cost us a possession.

 

[NickRU714]

Gavin can’t play defense. He’s part of the reason we are down 10

Minimal part.He's barely played.
not saying he needs to go back in but his impact is vastly overstate considering playing time.

Wasn't great when he was in but he did have 6pts.

 

[richthedentist]

Is Palmquist really any better on D?

NO NO NO

 

[BillyC80]

We need 3 Mag's on our team!!

Announcer just said it seems like there’s two Mags out there, lol

 

[Luvscarletknights]

This game is over

65-60 with 6' left. Glad you checked out.

 

[robjknight]

In hindsight, we didn't get the adrenaline boost off the technical and cost us 4 point swing.

We got the ball

 

[biazza38]

Is it 65-60?
Usually ESPN is behind
Love that Hyatt has 9 3 point attempts

 

[Scangg]

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

Rutgers doubling up nebby 18-9 on the offensive glass 🤣

"Guys" in my post refers to players not fans

Honestly thank god he got the T.

He needed to do that. You’re giving something up, but this team needs some fire.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Is Palmquist really any better on D?

No but Williams is way better

 

[Corycord1]

Playing hard need Hyatt back in. Let’s keep this game close within 2 minutes and the RAC will take over

 

[koleszar]

And right there is why Simpson will never be the guy.

 

[BillyC80]

Oh Derek, needed that

 

[rucoe89]

Just don't have anyone that can hit the big shots. Really were spoiled with Geo and Ron.

 

[kcg88]

Sad that Simpson, who is shooting 3-10 tonight, is having one of the best games our guards have had all season. That's how low the bar is.

 

[FrankZ]

And right there is why Simpson will never be the guy.

Gotta have it 🤦‍♂️

 

[richthedentist]

Where’s Hyatt???

 

[bethlehemfan]

Minimal part.He's barely played.

Wasn't great when he was in but he did have 6pts.

He’s unplayable

 

[bac2therac]

Nebby 5 min no fg

Elite D

 

[Scangg]

That Simpson 3 looked so good from that camera angle

 

[NickRU714]

Ron buries that lagging behind 3pt shot

 

[shields]

Williams bricks at the line really hurt.
