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

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

For those scoring me on complaining about refs.. I had no complaints tonight.. well.. not many. We got away with some stuff and so did they.. but, in general, the calls against us were real calls... except for 2.. Meah manufactured a couple calls against Sommerville... and, of course, Ace getting that late call.. BS... but he travelled on that end of game before the clock-stop-foul so it balanced out.. all we need is a fair whistle to compete.

The announcer made a good observation. Ace has happy feet at the free throw line. He needs to chill out some before he walks up there.

I think he added that happy feet thing BECAUSE he was slumping at the line. I think he should turn his back to teh basket and do turn-around FTs.

Honestly don’t think it matters what a player does when he first steps to the line. As long as he’s set when he begins his shooting stroke.

Yea, it's irrelevant. He stops moving his feet and sets before he even bends his knees to get into his shooting motion

That said, his current routine isn't working so he may want to consider a new routine. He obviously is a much better shooter than his FT%

Lmao dude he does it every year (except last season).

It’s crazy. I fell for it AGAIN.

he did it last year..remember 10-10....then 3 awesome games and everyone starts talking ncaa tourney at 13-10 and then they lose 7 of their last 8

2 wins in a row...take them one at a time because we need much more

I have no issue with him trying something different. I also notice he does not want to stand on the line waiting for ref to toss him the ball. He backs off until he see the ref is ready to give him the ball and then does his little shuffle routine. I think it is just a way for him to try to shoot in some sort of rhythm versus from a set position.

I think mag coming back from injury sparked those wins iirc. Then he got hurt or whatever happened again and that was the end of that..

Refs were a bit inconsistent, and missed several calls against both teams. A few things broke against us, a few things broke in our favor. Overall, I think we got a slight benefit from that inconsistency

[ScarletDave]

Any idea how many 10-8 Big ten teams have made the tourney?
