Michigan vs Rutgers / Game Thread

[80RU]

Actually the worst officiated game of the year

 

[RU848789]

horrible call on Sanders's 4th foul and they hit a trey - game over?

 

[Andrew Donnelly]

that’s absolutely horrendous. What the ****

 

[soundcrib]

So we should continue to stay silent about the refs right?!!!

 

[G- RUnit]

Don’t let posters tell us the refs aren’t hosing us. What a joke.

 

[bac2therac]

largest lead for Michigan...not looking good

 

[SJScarlet]

Guess Pikiell has to write to the league again

 

[PatrickRU92]

ah. now we're in deep S. Just don't have the offensive firepower

We are playing such great defense that frankly doesn't get the credit it deserves against an offesnive juggernaut like UM. But give up a 3 pointer like that (it happens, teams will score) and it just is magnified because it takes a herculean effort to get those points back

 

[soundcrib]

8 on 5. Game is over

 

[Rutgers25]

Refs make a lot of calls just to make calls..based on what they perceive rather than what they actually see.

 

[Mikemarc]

We as a team should worry about getting better offensively more than we should worry about the refs.

 

[kcg88]

Entire bench jumped up on Issa's drive because they think he got hacked too.

 

[RU848789]

Please stop with the whining about the refs. That was a horrible call on Sanders, but it's been pretty even (11-11 in fouls) and there have been a few other bad calls, some of which have gone our way.

 

[SirScarlet]

It was clear from the beginning that the refs wanted to wrestle control of the game in Michigan's favor. It started with the ******** pick call on Mamadou. And then the incessant hand-checking they have allowed the entire game by Michigan but not by us. This is so frustrating. Rutgers needs to continue to get respect from the referees otherwise this rebuild will be even harder. It will come. But it's really frustrating right now.

 

[RUJMM78]

Sanders now how has 4 fouls .Where are the points coming from on Rutgers offense for the rest of the game?45-33 Michigan .

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Mannnnn, i am happy im not at this game. Id either get close enough to the court to get tossed for yelling at the ref or throwing a drink at him. Un ******* believable

It's not just the number of calls. It's the way they are allowing the game to be played. We are a much more aggressive team I will give you that. But their game plan from the beginning was to keep our guards from penetrating and they have been successful doing that with a ton of hand-checking that has gone uncalled.

 

[RU848789]

Really, really, really miss Williams when Geo or Sanders gets in foul trouble. Gotta put Corey back in now.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

I wanna see one of our players commit a dirty foul to be 100% honest. I wanna see them take their frustration out on UM

 

[Rutgers25]

You are so stupid ...that’s all

Sorry, but this is just idiocy

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Moreso just to be able to look at the refs and say “THATS a foul”

 

[kcg88]

This game should do it for the "Dadika should play more" crowd. Complete liability defensively. Appreciate the leadership but he's a walk-on for a reason.

this...yes the Sanders call was bad but in general this game has been even...they will always miss some either way...its not the reason RU is losing if people are honest and have been paying attention

 

[G- RUnit]

Not watching the game and the knee jerk reaction of don’t blame the refs is silly. Michigan immediately jumps to biggest lead within seconds of Corey getting 4. Refs are a joke. We are not any more. Time for games to be called fairly. They are not.

 

[Candiru]

It’s not just the fouls. They have missed a couple of walks, a blatant double dribble, and just now a three second call where the kid on UM was in the paint for 7 seconds.

no one thinks Dadika is going to light it up for us or shut down the others. The question is more how is he compared to souf.

 

[bac2therac]

unfortunately some of Corey's early fouls were not good fouls..one in particularly so he never should be in position to be sitting with 4 fouls with almost 11 minutes left

 

[RUJMM78]

Best comment on this thread so far.Rutgers has 37 points with 7 minutes remaining .

Literally almost every foul today by RU, I noticed a player arguing with the ref after.

 

[shields]

Freeman stop shooting.

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

So frustrated with the game today. Not impressed with Michigan at all.

 

[SirScarlet]

Pikiell is understandably ticked off.

Forget the total number of fouls called. They are simply not calling the same game on both ends.

 

[kcg88]

Not that we were getting that rebound but that wasn't over-the-back.

 

[RU848789]

And I guess those obvious fouls by Baker and Thiam weren't fouls either. Please, you guys sound like a bunch of babies.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Freeman, Geo, and Corey just lost their composure many times today.

 

[Sweet Pea's Corner]

There is a conspiracy that the NCAA has told ref, officials, timekeepers etc. from keeping Rutgers from winning games since 1977. It would totally turn throw the college basketball word around. Sheesh don't u guys know that.

 

[80RU]

I don’t usually ***** about the officials. But this is just a farce. The crap calls just changed the flow of the game. Sanders going out, the five point swing potentially with the baker knock down, the list goes on.

 

[bac2therac]

yes...and I do not like it, seen it before, that type of behavior will not get you in the good graces of refs
