Don't you have your own board for this? Or are you just a douche?
Maddeningly bad play down the stretch
- Thread starter Westcoast
- Start date
first half was like 9-3 fouls, thought Happ got a way with at least one obvious foul, and he fouled Carter on another no call, think that was also first half. Second half it was even until the end when RU played the foul game. This wasn't the MSU game that's for sure.
I don't agree that this team is much stronger offensively than last year because Sanders , Freeman , Williams and Sa put 30 points on the scoreboard which hasn't been replaced by the new players this season.
I realize this season is a smaller sample size but we just played 2 of the tougher Big Ten teams
PPG/FG%
Omoruyi - 15.4 53%
Baker - 14.6 53%
Kiss - 10.1 52%
Last year stats
Sanders - 15.2 42%
Freeman - 11.1 41%
Williams - 8.3. (Couldn’t find %)
Who knows how rest of season plays out but I think it’s quite obvious this team is better balanced offensively with who can score and ability to actually shoot.
Yea Sanders and Freeman scored 26 a game last year but do you realize how many shots they had to take to do that.

Last year we scored 0.87 points per possession in conference play.
Against MSU and Wisconsin we scored 1.03.

Imagine being such a tool that you're on a team ranked 12th in the country and you go to a team's message board who finished last in the league last year to gloat? What a complete loser lol. So sad
[laughing] His other post was a reply to me, as apparently he thinks I'm a turd. I said back in June the West would suck and their best team would be 4th in the East. Turns out I was right.
wasn't aware we broke 1.00 against MSU too. Last year we were 1-17, this year we are 2-0. It hasn't translated in to wins..............YET..............but it will if it continues.
2 games is not a large sample size, but I am ready to call we are better.
Need to be shooting mid 30's from 3 to beat the better teams and in the Big Ten this year that covers a bunch of teams.
It's an extra 6-9 points a game which is huge in tight games and it opens things up a bit for better shots inside.
The team is going to see nothing but zone going forward if this aspect of the game doesn't improve.

The foul disparity has been with us for years. It is the longest running conspiracy in college sports. Worthy of an ESPN channel’s version of 60 Minutes or Dateline or Unsolved Mysteries. Or Twilight Zone.
Carino noted on Twitter that he cuts and pastes the same article regarding RU getting screwed by refs mid-January every year
Do some college teams practice with refs present, occasionally? At one of our intra-squad scrimmages, both sides could whine about the officiating. During real games, I always get the impression that opposing coaches get more “ear time” from refs than our coaches do.
