Rutgers vs Iowa / Game Thread
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
not one to complain about refs but this is outrageous.
I am thinking more like 1 in 10000. Almost a physical impossibility. gut wrenching
Lots of teams get beat on a full court pass with 3.3 secs left from the coffin corner on a bank shot 3?
That shot should never have been a game winning shot if not for the refs
Terrible way to go down but Rutgers basketball is back.... this team is good. Lose like that tonight then in OT to an Illinois team who is on a role. This team can beat anyone in the big 10 tourney. I wouldn’t be surprised at another semi final run.
Sure, and then they get a better percentage shot than the one they got. Look, that was an impossible shot which went in. This is a gut punch.
Fair point... it's brutal.Lots of teams get beat on a full court pass with 3.3 secs left in the coffin corner off a bank shot 3?
Gee look what I found. Beyond effin' lucky. Pike will rethink this and should have had someone like Myles on the inbounder. Still Iowa has now had two ridiculous wins. They're on the streak. And I'm still DAMN PROUD of our kids. They DESERVED TO WIN THIS _UCKIN' GAME!!!

Shouldve had johnson on the inbound and issa shouldve been in too. Regardless the shot was extremely ridiculous and had like a 3/100 shot of going in
As I've said a few times before - that was the best possible shot we could have asked for. The only type of shot we could have asked that would have been harder than that one was no shot at all. The chances of preventing no shot at all are unlikely. If you told me we could have had a chance at Iowa taking no shot at all, but with the risk of an easier look, or they take the shot they took, I'll take the latter every time.
You could question the staff on many things today, but saying they could have forced Iowa into a worse situation than the one they found themselves in isn't one.
Tez needs to make free throws but to his credit he is the one who got the steal and made the cut and catch.. both were tough plays. Just needs to make the FTs. Personally tez looked flustered today and I would have taken him out TODAY. However him in defense is much better than mcconnell
Yah..3 in 100?? 1 in 1000 is more like it. A banker from that angle is nuts and would seriously only go in vs us.
Nothing to do but laugh
I think I hate Iowa hoops more than any other team now.
What are you talking about????!!!! It was one of the luckiest shots I've ever seen in 50 years! All I said was Pike will want to rethink this endgame strategy. Put a big man on the inbounder and possibly have Thiam in there too.
Yea this is pretty much as brutal as it gets. Only thing worse would be if he made the full shot. But even then we'd have like 3 secs to get a shot off at least.[laughing]
But what do I know. I'm still trying to figure out how you can grab someone unintentionally. In all my life I've never grabbed anyone unintentionally even when I was falling down. I knew if I grabbed them it would lesson my fall. But apparently it does happen the refs just told me so.

Don't f***Ing 2nd guess the defense. That was something that we'll never see ever again in our lifetimes. It sure would never go in for us
I don't think he did. I watched a replay from the actual play and it looked like his foot was fine. I could only watch once because I'm so mad though and it's pretty far away so I could be wrong.
I saw on the view behind the inbounder and I was wondering the same thing.
