Rutgers-Michigan State Game Thread

[KnightsofChrome]

Watching Shaq go for a rebound is frustrating. Plays like he is 6’4”

Please don't put down 6'4" players, it's not the size of the man, but the size of the heart. Shaq plays soft.

 

[MV9000]

Not saying he didn’t miss Cali. I agree w that. This game right now I have no quarrel w his how played so far this particular game. Need him at rb on the football team lol

 

[RU848789]

23 all baby!

 

[RU Mike73]

Nice comeback boys.

 

[MV9000]

LETS GO

 

[RU848789]

RAC is ROCKIN!

 

[winfield102]

I've been saying that Freeman and Sanders take 5-10 bad shots per game. We are closing in on 10 bad shots from them in the 1st half. That needs to get corrected by the time we play B1G teams that we can beat.

 

[FrankZ]

The RAC is back...

 

[Jim_from_RU]

RAC is alive!

 

[Andrew Donnelly]

Just like the florida state, our BEST lineup is

Baker-Sanders-Williams-Freeman-Omoruyi

Its undersized but is our best 5 and we almost always go on runs with them on the court

 

[RUeric]

This game may still end in a blowout, but they can certainly play with any team in this conference.

 

[Caliknight]

Corey should take lessons from Geo on how to play in control and with poise. It would help his game tremedously.

 

[RU Mike73]

Corey please stop and pop

 

[Caliknight]

Geo Baker is our best player.

 

[RU Mike73]

2 fouls on Bridges

 

[RU848789]

Who had RU tied at the half? Love it.

 

[Caliknight]

RAC looks pretty good.

 

[bac2therac]

Incredible

 

[RU Mike73]

Woo hoo. Tied at 26 at halftime. Go RU

 

[FrankZ]

Loving the tie. Would love a win more.

Man, if im pike i play deshawn veryyyy sparingly in the 2nd half. If only play him when eugene is tired. Freeman is KILLING us.

Every time hes getting the ball within 10 feet of the basket he has his mind dead set on chucking something crazy up.

 

[RUeric]

Holding the #3 team in the country to 26 points at halftime is damn impressive.

 

[mikemarc1]

Team is hardest working team in country.

 

[MikeR0102]

Great effort first half. Let's shock the nation

Same as always.

 

[nirrad]

Very impressed with RU grit and guts in the first half. If I’m coach, I would let Geo take dude off the dribble every time. He is just running by this dude and scoring at will.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Same as always.

It works against crappy teams that dont have bigs but its not gonna work vs msu

Yeah, he is selfish as ****, needs to stop. Everytime he gets the ball he never looks to pass and just backs down and goes into the trees. Been saying it all season. Selfish player, pass it out.

 

[hbbsm713]

Very happy to be tied at the half, but man, if we didn’t miss all those easy ones.

 

[Jim_from_RU]

I’d run through a brick wall for Pike. Guy can COACH.

Wait, I thought Eugene was the one who couldn't play.[winking]

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Admitted i was wrong on him. Eugene has been real good

 

[RUby RED]

The fact that Bridges has been hot and yet our defense has held them to 26 is pretty remarkable

 

[Woody522]

When will Eugene start, he may be the best player we have

 

[RU82]

Way to make it ugly. That’s how we need to play to have a chance against good teams. Let’s see if we can do it for forty minutes.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Our best 5 man lineup is Corey-Geo-Mike-Eugene-Duke imo

 

[bwrlaw]

The rest of the big better take notice. We can flat out play with the big boys this year.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

Our best 5 man lineup is Corey-Geo-Mike-Eugene-Duke imo

I would agree except trade thiam for mike for that X factor and his defense

 

[bac2therac]

If only we had a 3 pt shooter on the team like Ricky Shields...what a testament to Pike and staff that they are squeezing so much out of what Rutgers has.

 

[DHajekRC84]

corey 1-7, freeman 1-6 if only they would stop taking such low % forced shots. we'd be better than 29% right now. corey is falling back on his 3 and why he is hitting front rim every time. terrible shot balance.

however the effort is outstanding. But that isn't new and the above is reason we can't be a mid-level B1G right now.
