Basketball Rutgers Basketball stuns Nebraska on the road with three-point barrage

[rucoe89]

Great job getting the team ready to play the second half. They are just watching open balls while Nebraska wants them and is getting them.

 

[Rokodesh]

Lathan needs to sit. We have nothing inside

 

[Mr Magoo]

Whatever pike tells them whether it’s before the game or at halftime s the opposite of what is needed.

 

[bac2therac]

Nebby sleptwalked in the first half and crowd put to sleep...Now nebby coming out much like ru did vs ucla and now crowd awake

 

[G- RUnit]

Blame Pike start of this half.
Zone ez basket.
Two wide open misses by Dylan and Acuff.
Settle these guys down.

 

[Scangg]

Lathan either needs a bounce back or lob to grant

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

I don’t like the combo of Acuff and Lathan on D at all.

 

[tm_nj]

a lackadaisical second half start puts us behind already

 

[RUeric]

Unfortunately you could see this start coming a mile away. Starting in zone defense, which we're absolutely terrible at, leading to a lob jam was the wrong choice.

 

[FrankZ]

Back to this trash squad. Get Derkack, Big O, etc back in

 

[Sleeping Giant]

WTF kind of start was that?

 

[RU Mike73]

Sure let’s play zero defense and miss every shot coming out of half. Way to piss away any momentum.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Get Lathan out

Getting softer every game

 

[FIJI'83]

3 Uncontested baskets. 🤮

 

[BillyC80]

Would’ve liked to see a hard foul by Lathan there, or maybe step in for a charge.

 

[BOCA93]

Yikes, couldn’t really draw up a worse start to the half

 

[Degaz-RU]

21-6 at the start of both halves

 

[Scangg]

Blame Pike start of this half.
Zone ez basket.
Two wide open misses by Dylan and Acuff.
Settle these guys down.

Yes, why didn't Pike make those two wide open shots?

 

[seansherm]

That's three of four halves that we've started slow w the four freshman together.

 

[bac2therac]

also the Acuff experiment starting not sure if that is doing much of anything

 

[Mr Magoo]

This zone is just garbage. Give it up

 

[RU Mike73]

Awesome out of the half. Way to go Pike

Was his talk not up to standard?? He’s not playing defense or taking open shots.

 

[RW90]

Not sure why Pike always goes back to the starting five to start the second half instead of who's hot. This roster is so unpredictable.

 

[Caliknight]

These kids have to learn college games start as soon as the whistle blows

 

[rufan4ever]

They have to dig a hole before they start to play.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Lathan either needs a bounce back or lob to grant

He’s never passed before

 

[Treaster51]

Gotta get Acuff out. Another slow start with him

 

[Scarlet Blind]

Its such BS, 11-15 FTs on 9 RU PFs in the first half.

 

[FrankZ]

0 line except for 1 TO. Just sit. Fast

 

[fatsam98]

Not sure why Pike always goes back to the starting five to start the second half instead of who's hot.

It's insanity honestly.

 

[bac2therac]

8 turnovers now...watch that number..anything over 12 will be disaster for rutgers

 

[Scangg]

also the Acuff experiment starting not sure if that is doing much of anything

He may be better suited off the bench

#FreeHayes?

 

[mugrat86]

Incorrect. They drew up that play to give Ace an open look. Watch it again.

They had 12 seconds to get a good shot. In my book, That was not a good shot

 

[FrankZ]

And leaves same lineup in. Well alrighty then

 

[Scangg]

He’s never passed before

I mean he tried there but chose the only wrong option for the type of pass

 

[RUeric]

No subs after the TO is insane. Pike has lost the plot.

 

[LaxDadd]

8-0 Nebraska run. Ouch

 

[bac2therac]

I will say I like Ace improving on D

 

[Rokodesh]

again killed inside

 

[Rutgers25]

Lathan is brain dead out there. Good
Lord
