OFFICIAL RU/FSU GAME THREAD

[MikeR0102]

Holding a team that averages 92ppg so far this year, and averaged 82 ppg last year seems like a good sign for the season to me.

I am watching on TV and these announcers are ruining the game for me. All they do is talk about how great FSU is. They were even talking about how great their big man is who is out with injury. RU does something well and they act surprised that they have to say something about RU. If we win this they might just drop dead from shock that FSU could lose to a team like ours. God they are horrible.

Hello Scarlett Nation. Good half so far. Should be a great second half. FSU terrible from 3 tonight, but better than normal when our guards/forwards goto the FT line.

Good luck in the second half !!!

 

[BoxStater]

Thiam has been horrible tonight

You just mean offensively?
Because on defense, Thiam is having a very good game. No FSU guard has made a 3 and their leading scorer Mann only has 4 points. Thiam’s length is causing problems for the FSU guards. I think that’s why he played so many minutes in the 1st half.

GREAT first half!​

 

[FrankZ]

Find a way to win this game (please)

True, very good on the D. But, when you are 6'9", you just can't let a 6'2" guard take the ball out of your hands.

Please stop. Did you tune in late? The first 5 minutes we're a commercial for Pike and the program's turnaround.

Fun game so far! RU working their asses off!! Great FT shooting so far too!

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Only 1 Turnover for Rutgers in the first half ?

 

[soundcrib]

Free throws keeping us in this...except Souf’s. :weary:

 

[Dpgru]

What is really nice to see is that we belong on the floor with this team. Our OOC schedule didn't tell us that, it told us where we didn't belong. This half shows us that we can compete. Gotta love the job this staff has done.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Just got here...not watching right now.....reading this thread...Rutgers must be down Double Digits...Correct ?

nope, Rutgers COULD be up 6-8.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

We will win this game.

Agreed!

[knight82]

We need two more players

Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain

 

[koleszar]

O my ass offensive foul.

 

[hbbsm713]

Wtf

 

[FrankZ]

Tear jerking first minute

 

[RU848789]

Thiam with another error

 

[RU848789]

Sanders got hacked

 

[koleszar]

We get every touch foul, they get nothing.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

The refs are a joke

 

[hbbsm713]

3 fouls already. Going to have no chance down the stretch if we have everyone foul out

 

[biazza38]

Sanders got hacked

That’s a foul 9 times out of 10. Freeman didn’t touch him

 

[FrankZ]

Darn refs gettin on my nerves (again)

 

[RUeric]

Gotta stop fouling. At least FSU is almost as bad as us at the line.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

3 bullshit fouls against us in 1 minute

 

[FrankZ]

Thank u Geo

 

[RU848789]

Needed that - took 3 minutes to score

 

[FrankZ]

Need to make 4 more 3s to win this game (somehow)

 

[RU848789]

Down 41-37 with 16 left - not a good start

 

[TobyTyler1]

Offensive lull

I don't see why any team would get out of their zone vs us

 

[bac2therac]

Need to hold them to under 70 to win

 

[RUsince52]

Sanders is either spectacular or non-descript. Really talented when he plays under control. If he could hit the jumpers, almost unstoppable.

 

[MikeR0102]

these commercials are something else

 

[FrankZ]

Thank u Freeman
