[ScarletteK80]

On BTN+. Game worries me. Let's hope for a good win, :Pray: :Praying:. GO RU.

 

[fbc1866]

I thought I read BTN+

 

[ScarletteK80]

Yes, BTN+.

 

[fbc1866]

PSU is at Purdue on BTN

 

[ScarletteK80]

Michigan on an 8-0 run.

 

[ScarletteK80]

12-6 Michigan, TO.

The guy doing the play-by-play is terrible. Do not need the singing. Talk about amateur hour.

 

[ScarletteK80]

Beyond terrible, I muted him already.

 

[rut08]

No noga and both Maddox and Morris are in boots.

 

[ScarletteK80]

20-13 end of one. We have 8 TO's already ansd look lethargic. Sigh.

 

[ScarletteK80]

No noga and both Maddox and Morris are in boots.

And this is why I get PO'd about not carrying more bodies.
No Noga, well guess she is gone.

This I will never Understand let alone agree with; It’s beyond stupid.

 

[ea_1]

Well, this is not going well. Looks like offensive boards and turnovers are problematic. Otherwise, play is about even.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Getting ugly fast....

 

[ea_1]

Okay, the foul situation is ridiculous. Some who is watching, will you please post about that? Thanks.

 

[RUforester72]

Worst game of the year.

 

[ScarletteK80]

35-15 TO. Fouls being called are legit. Game is basically unwatchable at this point.

 

[motorb54]

almost as many turnovers as points
approaching half time
down twenty

 

[RUJMM78]

Rutgers unwatchable offense against zone defense.Losing 35-18 with 14 turnovers.

 

[ea_1]

I don´t understand the comment(s) about not carrying enough bodies. Thirteen of 15 scholarship spots are taken. If players leave for lack of playing time, then someone on the board tries to stir up something--there must be a problem on the team or with the coach, yadda, yadda, yadda. Sometimes you just have bad luck with who gets hurt when.

Back to the pain (so far) of following this game ...

 

[ScarletteK80]

40-23 half.

 

[RUforester72]

40-23 at the half. RU 15 fouls and 15 turnovers!

 

[ea_1]

Rutgers unwatchable offense against zone defense.Losing 35-18 with 14 turnovers.

Since when is 47% unwatchable? Shooting is fine. Turnovers and FT differential are the problems the first half of this game. Are you watching? Was your offense comment based on TOs?

We have 12 on roster, I'm not counting whoever Guihon is supposed to be as she has never been seen, or heard about this year.

 

[ScarletteK80]

ea_1, are you watching this game, or following game tracker?

 

[ea_1]

Just looking at the TO and points-off-TO info, it looks like back-court TOs from RU with easy, uncontested runs to the basket for UM. Does that match what people saw?

 

[ScarletteK80]

No noga and both Maddox and Morris are in boots.

Was that said on radio?

 

[ea_1]

ea_1, are you watching this game, or following game tracker?

Sidearm stats--that is why I am asking for those with eyes on the game to fill in what I gather from the numbers.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

There is no excuse for this performance thus far. Whether or not you’re watching the game or tracking it means absolutely nothing.

 

[scarlettb]

She is a walk-on transfer and per transfer rules, has to sit out this season.

What are the reasons? I would imagine UM shooting 58% in the 2Q has something to do with the score. Are they simply on fire? Is it because RU defenders are keeping their distance because of all the foul calls?

 

[ea_1]

Well, missed FTs is another issue today.

This loss was expected and entirely predictable. Get used to them

Yes,18 points and 14 turnovers is unwatchable,Shooting percentage doesn't matter if the team can't pass the ball without committing turnovers.

 

[RUTrack94]

Ugh ... repeat of last year? ... up in standings early and then first round NCAA loss?

 

[RUgrad]

Every season follows the same pattern

 

[ea_1]

What is RU doing on defense (other than fouling)? Trading baskets this quarter.

 

[bac2therac]

Embarrassing 55-34

Ive always said Kim Barnes Arrico would be a great coach coming back to the nyc area

 

[RUJMM78]

55-37 end of third quarter.

 

[ea_1]

Good hustle by Zippy at the end of the quarter. UM shooting very well and getting more shot opportunities. RU terrible at the line today. Cleaner play by RU in 3Q but shooting percentage dropped. Can´t win for losing.
