Basketball Rutgers versus Michigan State at MSG -- Jan 25th

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
And then it’s not characterized as a neutral site game.
And the MSU band is there.
And the MSU Cheerleaders are there.
And MSU gets the same home team intros as Rutgers.
And the MSU fans get seats mid court.

SMH! Why do we tolerate this crap?
 
Hey G-RUnit was right after all!!!

If it's a home game for Rutgers, then the B1G and MSU should have no say. It should be a home production along with MSG helping.
 
Do you think it's fair we have to give up home court advantage for a conference game to play on a neutral floor when others do not have to?
Huh? Others did. Remember in 2023 we played MSU at MsG and it was a home game for them.

Our head coach has been pushing very hard for a conference game at MSG this year, so he got his wish
 
This is ridiculous.

For NET purposes, this will be called a home game, but it won't be played on our home floor (like the game in Feb 2023).

Last games vs MSU:
1/25/2025 - MSG
1/14/2024 - Breslin
2/4/2023 - MSG
1/19/2023 - Breslin
2/5/2022 - RAC
1/28/2021 - RAC
1/5/2021 - Breslin
12/8/2019 - Breslin
1/20/2019 - Breslin

It will be 4 years between MSU visits to Piscataway. Of our last 9 games, only 2 have been at the RAC and 5 and Breslin.

My point exactly
 
OK

WHEN DO THE OTHER TEAMS GET TO GIVE UP A CONFERENCE HOME GAME TO PLAY ON A NEUTRAL FLOOR??
MSU did not give up the home game. We did.
PSU has a better home court advantage at the Palestra than they do at the Bryce Jordan morgue.
Hell they even played at Rec Hall last year.
Let’s play MSU at The Barn!!!
 
It was Michigan that gave up a home game and played us at MSG on February 1, 2020 (right before Covid hit). RU lost that one but had very strong fan support. We gave up a game at the RAC to play Mich State in Feb 2023 and won that game. Totally makes sense given our 2 star freshmen to get a game at MSG this season. But, I agree, for each RAC game given up, we should get a B1G road game scheduled for MSG the following year.

This.
 
Wow can’t believe MSU avoids a trip to the RAC again !!!! That’s definitely more than a coincidence

Anyways .. I love the MSG games.
Don’t mind giving up a home game for it every other year , if we get another team to give up a home game on the opposing year as well.
 
It was an RU home game that we gave up.

I also remember RU losing at the half at the Garden? Doesn’t happen at the RAC.

RU shot exceedingly poorly at the Garden. Doesn’t happen at home.

What happened last time Izzo played at the RAC?

I also don’t like the mojo. Mags got hurt at the Garden.

And yet that hasn’t happened.
And MSU gets the benefit twice in a row!
