Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: No. 24/25 Rutgers vs. No. 19 Iowa

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Way too many open looks man

 

[bac2therac]

Iowa spurting back into it

Finish this half strong

35-33. Only 5 fouls called so far

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Really geo?

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Reading this thread it looks like we are getting blown out. Jeez. All you prisoners of the moment calm down . !!!

This your first time on a game thread? That's the point of a game thread. For the moment.

 

[ScarletteK80]

Be still my heart before you have a heart attack.

 

[17Q66]

That's twice that McConnell hasn't hustled for the loose ball. Just stood there.,

This is so Rutgers.

The comment, not the play.

 

[BigEastPhil]

Ugh. Up 7 with ball then turnover and geo I’ll advised 3. And of course Iowa scores both times. Could be turning point

 

[RU848789]

Both teams shooting 58/59% - unreal.

 

[BillyC80]

RU up 2 with the ball at 3:01. 35-33.

 

[FrankZ]

Cmon play smart. 35-33, 3:01, down 2-3 fouls

 

[QD43]

Stunned that we finally got a call.

 

[ScarletteK80]

And I wasn't going to participate tonight. Getting pissed with some stupid plays and poor calls. I think I need to lite one up..

C'mon over.

 

[richthedentist]

Geo just has not been on since he got hurt their zone is hurting us I don’t know why Harper isn’t in!!!!

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

RU up 2 with the ball at 3:01. 35-33.

We can’t sustain this offensively. But I think we can play better D

 

[read option]

That double on Garza and shot clock violation was a thing of beauty.

We can win this game.

 

[bac2therac]

Oh the refs are do bad..i had to say it

I love nothing really is getting called

 

[17Q66]

Tapping out game comments in a ranked-versus-ranked matchup involving Rutgers is ... strange.

 

[richthedentist]

Where’s Harper!!!

 

[Upstream]

I can't take the stress

 

[greenknight]

GB needs to know that is a terrible shot 4 ft behind the arc. That was a 6pt swing

Geoooo not a good look!!!

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

Geo just has not been on since he got hurt their zone is hurting us I don’t know why Harper isn’t in!!!!

Substitution patterns are strange this game.

 

[RU-05]

I think our defense can wear them down.

I think our offense might do well in this regard as well.

 

[Hamilton's Cannon]

Good minutes from Shaq the second shift. Keep running fresh bodies at Garza.

 

[jersey07080]

Bardo is obnoxious calling games. If you didn't know Toussiant is from NYC he has said it 133 times.

 

[bac2therac]

We can’t sustain this offensively. But I think we can play better D

I think we managed to slow the pace down by causing turnovers

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

"Sorry coach. You asked for perfection and so far this team is perfect. So if its ok with you...."

 

[Scangg]

I think our defense can wear them down.

And depth. Plus Pike has been making good half time adjustments.

We are giving their best 3 point shooters way too many open looks.

 

[BOCA93]

Iowa baiting them into a 3pt shooting contest.

 

[QD43]

This your first time on a game thread? That's the point of a game thread. For the moment.

Amen. First time ranked in my lifetime and I'm supposed to "chill"? Not going to act like we've been here before, because we haven't been here before.

 

[FrankZ]

Tear jerking TO now

 

[RUsince52]

What was that ?

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

This is so Rutgers.

The comment, not the play.

True or not. Did he or didn't he.

 

[RU Mike73]

Iowa shooting 60% and 59% from 3. But our great fans bitching and we are up 2. So tired of this board.

 

[ScarletDave]

Fran is desperate for a Tech, please refs give it to him. How can you be yelling at the refs that bad there was 1 foul called against Iowa in almost the entire first half !! Give me a break !!

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Watch iowa on off-ball screens, our guys are getting mugged

 

[17Q66]

I can't take the stress

It's the "RU @ Cincinnati 2006" anxiety.

 

[17Q66]

True or not. Did he or didn't he.

Hey, it just proves you're one of us.

 

[FrankZ]

Any doubt who’d get foul between the two?

 

[Hamilton's Cannon]

Johnson on the line - always an adventure

 

[RU848789]

Mulcahy needs to look to shoot more...
