Game thread for Penn State vs. NU

[AdamOnFirst]

BB and BB are the guys!

Chase missing bunnies

 

[zbag51]

Let’s Go Cats!

 

[TejasCat]

Can we get a call? Sheesh Beran hip checked going to hoop.

 

[RhabdoWildcat]

The shooting is one thing, the 2-3 really boneheaded passes a game is REALLY exceptionally annoying

2-10 today…I love his defense and intensity but this is putrid.

Boo needs help. The man can’t do it himself!

 

[NU Houston]

NU going small. Both bigs have been on the bench.

 

[PurpWildCatNation]

Barnhizer is what we wanted Kopp to be

 

[GatoLouco]

TVH has better agility IMO.

If that’s the idea, then Beran should play 5. Which is what we went to. Makes the offense more dangerous against these guys for sure

 

[GatoLouco]

I’m trusting my man Scirotto (sp), if needed, to tip the scales for his Alma Matter at the end.

 

[PurpWildCatNation]

nope don't like this

I’m trusting my man Scirotto (sp), if needed, to tip the scales for his Alma Matter at the end.

No doubt. He was super friendly talking to Buie.

 

[SmellyCat]

Every time NU makes a three, I expect Penn State to call a timeout. Instead, they come down the floor and score. Last five made NU threes: Penn State has scored 12 points in response. We just can't seem to land the knockout punch.

 

[The Purple Knight]

1. If they rely on the Buie isolation play, they’re gonna lose the game.

2. Ty Berry has become defensive liability.

 

[SmellyCat]

This game may come down to The Wire.

Dave Revsine in the studio just (unknowingly?) quoted this post.

Wrong

 

[EagerFan]

Tydus with the rebound, gets pushed to the floor by 22. Turnover NU!

 

[The Purple Knight]

Wrong

Go to barnhizer at the end if you want to win the game

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Important time out. Pls use well

 

[ThatadultfromHolland]

Go to barnhizer at the end if you want to win the game

Buie isolation opens up Barnhizer and just about everyone else on this team.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Sigh

 

[EagerFan]

OT

 

[NU Houston]

The confusion on the switch leading to the Funk three was killer. And then how do you leave him open at the end?!?!

 

[GatoLouco]

This game had no business coming down to this. Scoring 61 on this PSU defense is pitiful. Ugh

 

[PurpWildCatNation]

 

[Titanium999]

Best shooting I have ever seen by both teams this second half! We got the team leg speed to win !

 

[DaCat]

I thought that was in

That's how Rutgers beat NU.

THEY HAVE FOULS TO GIVE: Overrated.

Save the sixth foul unless you absolutely have to. Now the first foul in OT is shooting.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Holy **** was that a good play by Brooks

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Let’s actually USE the 2 for 1

 

[NU Houston]

Just can't make baskets down the stretch.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Boo (the band kind, not ours)

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Terrible game.

 

[EagerFan]

Hard to comeback from that.

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Not sure why we take Nicholson out all game?

 

[PurpWildCatNation]

god damnit

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Not sure why we take Nicholson out all game?

TV played really well.

 

[TejasCat]

Make 22 beat us, too many double teams when they were on fire from 3

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Not a fan of our late game offense. All one on one. There are sets that get people good shots besides having someone go one on 5.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Still just not a good offensive team. Total waste of a good night by Brooks.

 

[GatoLouco]

THEY HAVE FOULS TO GIVE: Overrated.

I don’t get using fouls to give, like we did, close to the half-court line.

 

[HawkCat]

Another loss that we thoroughly deserved.
