Rutgers DOMINATES Nebraska, without Geo - can't wait for every game now

[RU848789]

It's unlikely we can play much better than we just did on the road against a BiG team, even a not very good NE team. Wow! Just wow! Without arguably our best player, we just blew out NE by 15+ on the road (and it was over 20 when it mattered). Caleb was incredible (20 points without missing a shot), Myles was superb (18/14), JY was awesome in his best game as a SK (16/5), Harper had a double doube too (11/10) and everyone else did their parts.

Huge props to the coaching staff, too, for preparing the team so well to play on the road without Geo. HUGE WIN!! Let's PACK the RAC on Tuesday - can't wait!! We're also seeing the benefits of Pike playing so many guys this year, as everyone stepped up in Geo's absence. This is a legitimate bubble team folks. Let's enjoy the ride.

I just hope Myles Johnson starts getting respect from the B1G refs like we've seen so many other bigs in the B1G get. You hear me B1G refs, no more ticky tack fouls on our big man.

I could not have been more wrong and have never been happier to be a moron.

Great job tonight by the team.

Still hope Geo is a quick healer

Does he have a younger brother we can recruit?

Johnson versus Watkins will be big, myles don't get in foul trouble.

 

[RedChucken123]

Gosh, I love this team. Lol.

 

[Dpgru]

Post game show on BTN gave a great stat - Nebraska had no, zero, second chance points. What a great defensive game. Defense travels.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Great game from us. Nebraska is so bad defensively. I had flashbacks to Eddie Jordan. I could not go to Nebraska games as a fan to watch a team play like that.

 

[rufeelinit]

Just a strong performance from start to finish. We were the better team even without Geo and we showed it. Only played 8 but all contributed. Much tougher test Tuesday night against PSU.

Yup desperately need that. The drop off from Johnson to Carter is so apparent on the court

Wow, indeed!!

I don’t think it’s as much a knock on Shaq as it is us witnessing the emergence of a true All-B1G Center!

I am so proud of these guys. Our point guard who averages 30 minutes a game was out. He leads the BIG in steals and is one of the top players in assists in the BIG. There were guys here who said McConnell should not be in the rotation. He was fabulous as was Johnson and Young was very good as well. We only played 8 guys and everyone contributed to the win. The RAC should be rocking on Tuesday. Pikiell is doing a wonderful job with these guys. Some people here should finally give him some props.

Hopefully Akwasi has no effects from that collision

True, but Carter did have 6 nice points tonight and has been playing a bit better of late. Really need Myles to continue staying out of foul trouble for us to beat any upper echelon B1G teams.

#'s. If you had a choice of Rutgers going to the NCAA this year but it meaning no snow this year would you take it?

Tough question, lol, but I'm pretty sure I'd take RU in the Dance over snow!

You heard it hear folks.

Really great to see a solid basketball team. What a great game.
