Rutgers vs Michigan State / Game Thread

[RutHut]

Hoping we have a run in us.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Our basketball and football student sections have to be the combined furthest distance from the baseline/ Endzone in the entire nation.

Yup. Just horrible.

 

[SJScarlet]

Just overmatched

We couldn’t score against BU in the second half either, a lot of it is is not executing. Also think we look tired now.

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

We need a big 3 pointer really Badddd...gotta get the crowd into it down the stretch.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Would have liked to see a fresh team in this game. Oh well.

 

[RUsince52]

These refs never call a travel when a player takes his 2 steps after stopping their dribble, leaves his feet and comes back down with the ball again. Happened a few times in the Miami game.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Eugene is killing us tonight.

Seriously. 3rd freeman analogy. Ball goes to him and flow stops while he backs around. Just play ball!

 

[RUsince52]

We need a slasher, tall enough to finish shots or get fouled.

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

We need FTs and it comes from Shaq

 

[FrankZ]

6 point play!!

 

[rutgersguy1]

Awww man we just go momentum and then a foul...shoot.

 

[FrankZ]

Lol foul

 

[FrankZ]

Farce

 

[rutgersguy1]

Awww man again...another one. What killers to all the momentum and crowd excitement.

 

[biazza38]

Lol that foul

 

[koleszar]

Any excuse to keep us from a run. Fvcking refs protecting the upper echelon.

 

[FrankZ]

Walk

 

[RUfromNJ]

Ward walks constantly

 

[ClassOf02]

I mean, these refs....cmon.

 

[Scangg]

The fix is in

 

[rutgersguy1]

3!!!!

 

[FrankZ]

Flipping refs.

 

[scarletKNIGHT07]

Walk. Jeeeazus

 

[RU82]

Damn these guys can make FT’s!!!

 

[rutgersguy1]

Awww geez 2 missed 3s and then they get a bucket and 1....dammit!!

Seriously 118 and the students so far away equals the worst end courts in college bball.

 

[ClassOf02]

Baker getting abused on a couple illegal screens.

This officiating is awful.

 

[Scangg]

These refs live in Izzo's pocket

 

[FrankZ]

Refs made up for that 6 pt play as fast as they could. Couldn’t disappoint Uncle Izzo

 

[bethlehemfan]

Need to make shots. Very simple

 

[koleszar]

We are at home right? WTF, I expect the 50/50's to go to us at home at least.

 

[bac2therac]

Its clear Rutgers basketball has arrived..win or loss

 

[RUsince52]

Being long isn't really helping on offense or we just don't take advantage of it. Our Big guys still aren't good at adjusting their shot without just throwing it up.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Its clear Rutgers basketball has arrived..win or loss

I agree.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

You stop, he played 39 2 days ago, 35 in the 3 prior, and they were active minutes. If you thought he wouldn’t get tired you’re delusional.

Stop it you sound like a millennial participation trophy lover. There’s no way in hell he was tired Just minutes into the second half after a 15 minute break. None. He made great drives to the basket, it wasn’t like he couldn’t get around his guys, he just went up with one hand instead of going up properly and he missed both that’s all. Shit happens. He’ll learn.

 

[FrankZ]

We are at home right? WTF

Lol. Has never mattered (for us).

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Kiss of death. Come on peter..nail something dude. Need you!!

 

[BigEastPhil]

We got the ref who hates us in the game.

This is all I had to know before the game started. This ref has been so blatantly biased against Rutgers forever. He's pathetic

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Seriously 118 and the students so far away equals the worst end courts in college bball.

And I see we’re still not giving 110 to the students? I have to imagine the demand is there, no? I couldn’t make the game tonight so I can’t really tell because when they show that end of the court you can’t even see halfway up the student section because it’s so ****ing dark. Another head-scratcher!!

My 2 cents - he was off his game from the longer than usual pine
