[NJ4life]

Did you guys even watch St. John's? Or do you hate Rutgers? St. John's looked horrible. All local games are a toss up.

 

[RU MAN]

This St. Johns team is not your father's team. I know we're no great shakes either, but I'm going with the upset:

RU 68
ST. JOHNS 66

 

[ScarletLongIsland_rivals]

RU 60
SJU 50

 

[PatrickRU92]

Look, I'll never complain about 2 wins in a row. Ever. Especially after the last 2 exquisitely painful seasons.

But I'm not sure I'll believe we should be favored to win until we actually prove that we can beat teams like St John's College.

RU 79
SJC 20

 

[RUONTHERISE]

RU- 67
SJU- 64

I am predicting a blowout. This is the first game where we see what Freeman and Sanders can really do on the big stage.

RU 72
St. Johns 55

According to Jerry carino at the CC meeting he said St. John's has nothing. We'll see. I'm going with my preseason pick.

I see a huge game for Freeman tonight. 20/10

 

[wheezer]

a close game that is won at the foul line by SJU...... Figure by about Eight when all is said and done

And the board here will not be happy with the calls....... The fix is in.....

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Does RU have a fighting chance tonight?
Honest answers please as I don't want to waste anytime watching the game if you guys know it's a formality of a loss.

I know the refs will favor SJU, they always do in games there.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

RU 69
SHU 64

Are they playing Seton Hall or Sacred Heart?

 

[Vegas pj]

Road game so 69-63 SJU. RU at least beats the spread.

 

[BKIn118]

You gotta believe....

Rutgers 72
Johnnies 66

 

[Local Shill]

I'll have to see it to believe it.
St.John's 71
RU 61

 

[higgins3]

And rutgers wins..

Carino said that?St Johns has some kids who can put the ball in the hoop, and supposedly defends.

Rutgers

They do, but I would never tell someone to do something they didn't want to do

 

[4theknights]

RU 73
SJU 69
We are better this year!!

 

[G- RUnit]

Why is this game not at the Garden?

 

[RU-ROCS]

SJU 74 - RU 62

 

[Local Shill]

Why is this game not at the Garden?

We've played them at both places overactive years. It's nothing unusual.
Also because we'd probably bring dozens and dozens of fans and they have to pay a lot to use the Garden.


Except for the 1999 Big East quarterfinals we've had very light turnouts for games against them in Manhattan since we joined the Big East.

St. John's plays a lot of their lesser games in their old gym..... Not like the 70's

 

[Local Shill]

I know. Actually the last road game we played against them as Big East members we beat them at MSG.

 

[Plum Street]

Rutgers 67, St. John's 65

 

[RU Husky]

St John's by 10

DVR the game. Find out the score. Then watch us win fast forwarding through commercials.

For the life of me, I don't understand your negativity. You don't want to watch our women's soccer team when they have a player or two not playing due to injury. You don't want to watch the basketball team if there's a chance they lose.

What's the point of being a fan and enjoying the games, be it on TV or in person?

I'm sure Kentucky men's basketball is on TV somewhere if it means so much to you.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

I made the mistake of turning it on in the 2nd half when they were up a dozen.

Played scared and gagged it away, with big help from gutless officials who were too scared to call fouls on the home team.
