MSU/ Purdue Monday afternoon
- Thread starter RUisB1Gtime
- Start date
Either of two reasons:
1. RU feels like they have to bend over and do whatever the B1G tells them to do
Or
2. RU really thinks it’s important to maintain a live presence in NYC.
I’m going with 1.
Just a typical Big Ten barn burner.
As for Thursday, since Purdue defeated MSU at MSU by 1 and RU defeated Purdue at Purdue by 1, the math makes it obvious: RU wins by 2!
Interesting coincidence that Purdue scored 64 points today and won but scored 64 points against us and lost.
Detest we have to get up RAC advantage.
If we are going to continue to play MSU at the garden, one year it should be our home game and the next year’s theirs.
when we played them at home last year, that number 5 was a beast...it just seemed like we could not stop him
we took that lead near the end, I said to the Purdue fan behind me, don't worry, that guy will get you a bucket....and he did
thank god we had the 3 plus seconds left, and Mr Ron Harper
I disagree with this math because there are two home court advantages in the chain.
Purdue defeats MSU at MSU by 1 so Purdue ~= MSU + 4
RU beats Purdue at Purdue by 1 so RU ~= Purdue + 4
So RU ~= MSU + 8
But it's at MSU, so RU wins by 5.
We played Michigan at the garden in 2019 and it was their home game.
The same way Michigan, one of the biggest dogs in the B1G, played a home game at MSG against Rutgers.
I thought that was deal. We give a home game every other time we play a B1G opponent at MSG. I am sure MSG and the conference has a say in who the opponent will be since they want a strong gate and don't want to rely solely on RU to generate it.
How did we let it his happen. Plenty of folks on here earlier d fending the exposure angle but we're getting plenty winning at home and being at the top of league.
This is like letting SHU off the hook last year.
Who's caving in these things? Man up Rutgers for God's sake.
Nah.. the refs don't protect the star players on the top teams. Exhibit z. What a joke.
Inaugural Big Ten Super Saturday - 2016 - Michigan vs Penn State
We were all so jealous we didn’t get to be a part/weren’t invited and instead it was our bitter rivals.
Now we are complaining that we are even in it.
How times have changed
2016 - Michigan @ PSU
2017 - Wisconsin @ RU
2018 - OSU @ Minn
2019 - Illinois @ Maryland (worst attendance ever)
2020 - RU @ Michigan
2023 - MSU @ RU
If anyones been screwed, it’s Penn State and Maryland who gave up a home game and never got one back

Have to double him and take your chances with a potential kick out to a 3
Yes times have changed and I frankly don't give a hoot about MD or that other school.
You realize Michigan gave up it's home game in 2019 to play us there right? So it should be our turn to play a road game next time. If that doesn't happen then sure, we're getting screwed. But for now it evens out
We gonna do this dance again? There have been 6 games and 2 of those time Rutgers..who has perhaps the biggest home court advantage has given up a home game.
We're 1 /14th of the league (7%) but have given up 33% of the home games (whisky and MSU). I don't care what happens in 3 years.
When the rest of the league has to give up one home game to play elsewhere I'll call it even.
This league wouldn't even pay us our share.
And I'll ask yet again.. are they even paying us the lost revenue for losing the RAC?
Illinois playing well. Seems like they got their issues ironed out.
There are way worse things than playing 1 home game every 4 years or so at MSG.
I guess I'm in the minority here but that's a good call. Edey clearly has the rebound with both hands. It's his ball. Unfortunate that the MSU player has his hand stuck in there, but it's a foul on him. Just unlucky he got his hand caught and couldn't get it out
Yup… gave OSU one against us and took one away against Minny. The latter could cost them a postseason.
Seriously. Don’t know what people are complaining about. A game in the Mecca of basketball isn’t going to hurt us. Should still be a home game for us…ya know… since many live closer to MSG than the RAC and we can pack in twice as many fans.
We win that Wisconsin if it’s played at the RAC. Stinks! Indeed that was a Eddie Jordan’s best win’
Here’s the nice part about being good, silver linings and positive thinking all around.
I was rooting for MSU for 1st in the B1G, but right when they loss I immediately switched to thinking “that double bye just got more likely”

Basically the same thing happened to Paul with Key and Key ended up getting and an 1.
