[geoman]

Sanders getting hot, I hope. 36-32.

 

[BillyC80]

RU up 36-32 with 1:41 left in the half.

 

[RutgersRaRa]

If we could hit threes at 35% we would be very good.

 

[BillyC80]

Nigel!

 

[BillyC80]

RU leading at the half, 38-32

 

[geoman]

Up 38-32 at the half. Freeman with 10 rebounds. So far, so good.

 

[RUONTHERISE]

Wow. Freeman having a great night on the boards.

 

[bac2therac]

Great way to end the hapf...38-32...fdu isnt good..Rutgers just has to keep focused and wear them down...rRutgers should not take 3s anymore...they are horrific at that..its not going to change

 

[RutgersLarry]

Does FDU usually run a zone ?

 

[Dpgru]

Just got to my computer, was listening on the radio. Recco said FDU runs around like the Harlem GlobeTrotters, to those of you who are watching - is he accurate?

 

[bac2therac]

Key stat...Fdu only 5 points over the last 7 mnutes plus

 

[BillyC80]

The Globetrotters pass more and FDU dribbles more - lots of street ball one-on-one and bombing from deep.

 

[Dpgru]

Key stat...Fdu only 5 points over the last 7 mnutes plus

Hopefully they keep that defense up through the second half.

 

[bac2therac]

Uncle Bob in the house tonight

How does someone figure out that they can balance heavy equipment on their face?

 

[Dpgru]

At least three FDU players have over 17 minutes played in the first half. We can wear them down in the second half.

 

[okieKnight908]

Not sure what to think about that half time show. Hah.

 

[Dpgru]

Slow start in the second half

 

[BillyC80]

Thiam!

 

[BillyC80]

Gettys great footwork on D.

 

[SAE96]

Not sure what to think about that half time show. Hah.

Yeah. The guy is sitting around, sees a wheelbarrow and decides that he can balance it on his face. I'm just wondering about the thought process.:)

 

[RUONTHERISE]

What's Halftime show about?

 

[Dpgru]

Well, if the past few games are any indication of this teams ability we are on pace for a 5-7 minute defensive lock down and. A 12-0 run.

 

[BillyC80]

Halftime show is about 15 minutes.

 

[BillyC80]

Doorson!

 

[BillyC80]

RU back up by 7.

 

[soundcrib]

Rutgers Fast Break!

 

[BillyC80]

RU by 9 with 13:42 left.

 

[Degaz-RU]

Where is Freeman in the 2nd half?

 

[BillyC80]

Freeman coming in now. RU up by 8 with the ball after a Shaq dunk.

 

[BillyC80]

Corey! RU by 10.

 

[BillyC80]

Thiam needs to shoot that shot from the top of the key.

 

[Dpgru]

Where is Freeman in the 2nd half?

Three fouls. Was on the bench for a while

 

[BillyC80]

RU up 56-48 with the ball and 11:38 to go.

 

[bac2therac]

Key is to keep attacking..fdu does not have good D..focus and finish

 

[Dpgru]

Trouble putting them away

 

[Dpgru]

Boylan on the radio said we substitute like a hockey game. We do use a lot of guys. Up by 9

 

[BillyC80]

Williams with a great offensive rebound! Sa with the 3!

 

[BillyC80]

RU up 64-55 with 7:30 remaining. Timeout on the floor.

 

[soundcrib]

Our hi lo is great tonight. If we had just one reliable jumpshooter even off the bench we're an NCAA team. It's the great equalizer we just don't have. In our case so far it's why we can't step on other teams throats.
