Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. Illinois

[Scangg]

Duke literally is the football player that shows up to the rec center. Clueless out there

He can't score when he gets the ball 2 feet from the basket? Just go up strong

 

[BillyC80]

Refs taking over the game.

 

[NickKnight 1]

Score?

 

[bac2therac]

Refs taking over the game.

shake my head

 

[zebnatto]

I’ll take the under.

 

[bac2therac]

please make free throws

 

[Scarlet Knut]

Have to make foul shot.

 

[FrankZ]

Please make 1 FT

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Theres NOTHING wrong with a two handed dunk or layup. Not everything has to be flashy

 

[bac2therac]

10 points for RU in 14 minutes

 

[mikebal9]

10 points for RU in 14 minutes

How many for Illinois?

 

[RU Mike73]

21-18 RU 30 secs

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Pike just caught on a hot mic saying “he fouls on every possession all game”. Wonder who he was talking about

 

[FrankZ]

Please make 1 FT

Wanted to ask for 2 but knew better

 

[biazza38]

Thatta boy Pike. I think both teams have had some real bad calls against them. The two on Duke were very bad though

 

[bac2therac]

1

How many for Illinois?

14

 

[FrankZ]

Hold for 1 please

Carter should dunk always with two hands and quit the tongue sticking out stuff. It's obvious he can't do 2 things at one time.

 

[FrankZ]

21-18, 7-7 fouls at half

 

[RUJMM78]

Carter misses 3 out of four foul shots which really matters in this type of game .21-18 Rutgers half time.

 

[mikebal9]

So if I told you we'd be up by 3 on the road with no Geo and basically no Myles....you'd be happy, no?

 

[biazza38]

We’ll we’re winning

 

[bac2therac]

sigh...Yeboah misses wide open 3

stats are brutal

21-18...I will take it but

 

[CHR2022]

I expect some large adjustments from Pike at half time, having a lead when we've played badly is a good thing

 

[Pancho1939]

As bad as everyone is saying Illinois is playing, Rutgers is playing poorly and has not had Myles in the floor in 12 mininutes. It is amazing what you can do when you play defense...

Mu only fear is Illinois being the home team if they go on a little run the crowd will turn quickly. Need to come out of half like we did against penn state.

 

[PatrickRU92]

Can't be too mad. We've had arguably our MVP taken out of the game (thanks for the bullshit refs), we can't throw it in the ocean and were up at half. Whoever makes the best adjustments on O will win. I like our chances.

 

[Scarlet Knut]

21 - 18 RU. Second half need to continue with tough D and work the ball inside.

 

[FrankZ]

Up 3 with Myles not on floor the whole half.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

sigh...Yeboah misses wide open 3

stats are brutal

21-18...I will take it but

RU 33%, 16% from 3
Illinois 19% 0-7 from 3

yikes haha

 

[Scarlet Blind]

Elite defense 6 for 31 0 for 7 3pt range.

 

[bac2therac]

dude Myles fouled..those were fouls..how can you argue that

 

[RUJMM78]

Ohio State leads Indiana 31-28 with 2 minutes remaining first half.

 

[koleszar]

Up 3 with Myles not on floor the whole half.

Was just about to say the same thing. Not too shabby with Myles being taken out for what seems like most of the 1st half.

 

[PatrickRU92]

dude Myles fouled..those were fouls..how can you argue that

if they're going to call ticky tack moving screens then call them on everyone. Miles gets called for them ALL fracking time

 

[RU Mike73]

2 for 11 from 3. Not our thing.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

dude Myles fouled..those were fouls..how can you argue that

Realistically you can call a ticky tac foul on alot of screens.

 

[rufeelinit]

Like the intensity and will take being up by 3 at half. We either need to make more threes or work harder for better shots. You have to assume Illinois shoots it a little better in the second half even if we keep playing well defensively.

 

[toby83]

sigh...Yeboah misses wide open 3

stats are brutal

21-18...I will take it but

He has air balled a WIDE OPEN three badly in 4 games now this year .like not remotely cloalse

 

[BillyC80]

I don’t care if we win ugly, just so long as we win.

 

[BigEastPhil]

Don’t know if I should be happy being up 3 playing like crap or being upset that we should be up double digits

Need Myles in 2nd half.
