Basketball PREVIEW/LIVE THREAD: Rutgers Basketball versus Iowa Part II

[RU848789]

Have they missed a FT the entire game?

Nope, 21-21 and we're 7-10 and down 10. There's your difference. Ridiculous.

 

[RedTeam1994]

Are you ****ing kidding me he should T'd up for flopping. I want to punch this ****ing announcer right in the face stupid mother****er

That commentator sounded like Baghdad Bob. Comically defending that call against Harper

 

[greenknight]

He literally hit his arm on the way up.

Just saw you know the rule the defender is able to go straight up which he did that is a non foul. He did not get called on the arm he got called on the fall which was a flop and should have been called

 

[richthedentist]

We could be winning if it wasn’t for the bullsht fouls called by these refs

 

[bethlehemfan]

He literally hit his arm on the way up. They even showed the replay.

But sure criminal.

It’s like some have never played basketball.

No he didn’t. Zero contact.

 

[RU-Esq]

haven't even hit the rim

If they even shot just 75% from the line, it would be a close one.

 

[hbr1103]

haven't even hit the rim

We are playing fine
We are in tournament
Just enjoy the ride

 

[RW90]

What can Pike draw up for a 5 on 8?

 

[FIJI'83]

The referees are scum

 

[RUby RED]

Bac any comment on the refs tonight? I know you like to focus solely on the on-court play (which admittedly hasn’t been the prettiest), but the complete refusal to acknowledge how they impact the game is interesting…

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

He literally hit his arm on the way up.

Oh come on man. That's a joke.

 

[RuBird]

10 point game

Would be up at least 5 with decent refs

And even if we could hit our fouls shots like Iowa is.

 

[fluoxetine]

Keep fighting..thread the needle

Defense and pokes in passing lanes key

Caleb getting his 4th hurt

Well he said a mean word to Connor and we can’t have that

 

[RUinOhio]

Bardo used to be good

 

[BrewHawk]

Our energy level is crap again. Trying to coast to the finish. Can't do that against a good team like Rutgers. Hopefully Ulis and Perkins will bring more defensive energy. Way too passive.

I see this being a dogfight down to the end unless Iowa brings more effort on D and not give up second chances.

 

[RedTeam1994]

He literally hit his arm on the way up. They even showed the replay.

But sure criminal.

It’s like some have never played basketball.

I watched the replay I saw no contact. But you be you

 

[RU848789]

And despite being (r)effed, we're still only down 10.

 

[NickRU714]

That foul on Harper was the worst - if there's a "cylinder" for the elbow earlier, where's the "cylinder" for Ron, whose arm was straight up? And then those ticky tack techs? Unreal, just unreal.

I don’t think you understand some rules.

There is no cylinder for defensive players except going straight up.

Only the offensive player is afforded space because they have the ball.

 

[fluoxetine]

Bardo used to be good

He’s still good, but he was wrong there imo

 

[RUChoppin]

Bac any comment on the refs tonight? I know you like to focus solely on the on-court play (which admittedly hasn’t been the prettiest), but the complete refusal to acknowledge how they impact the game is interesting…

He did give the cylinder call a "wtf"

 

[leftoright]

Not an anti ref guy, but I'm starting to see the BS. Why is that? Cuz RU doesn't belong?

 

[FIJI'83]

Bardo used to be good

He’s an ignorant shill

Its not why we are losing

Alot of salty fans

 

[RU-Esq]

No he didn’t. Zero contact.

Well that's actually not true per the replay - but it was slight - and could have been a no call. But if Murray puts up an airball, they were going to call it. Can't embarrass their star player now can they?

 

[Scangg]

That commentator sounded like Baghdad Bob. Comically defending that call against Harper

Bad look from Bardo there. Cringe worthy

 

[bac2therac]

Caleb

71-63

Lets go!

 

[BrewHawk]

Ugh. Bohannon still in.

 

[robjknight]

How does Big 10 allow Bo to continue to ref especially in tournament

 

[bac2therac]

Harper has to hit that..no excuse

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Ron picked a bad time to have a crap game

 

[RUTrack94]

Wow … 21/21 for on FT and RU still has a shot … wonder what the record is for 100%

 

[tfio]

Ughhh Ron that hurt

 

[Scangg]

Its not why we are losing

Alot of salty fans

It's 100% why we are losing stop embarrassing yourself just bc you never want to admit reffing impacts games

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

RHJ roughed-up again going to the hoop

 

[RU-Esq]

RHJ ain't got it today.

 

[RU Mike73]

Oh my Ron and Cliff

 

[bac2therac]

Cliff misses dunk..imissed bunnies ts not refs

 

[tfio]

And Cliff that hurt even more. Why why why

 

[greenknight]

How do u miss that

 

[Scangg]

Finish that Ron! If it's Iowa it's a foul though

Cliff nooooo
