Thatta boy Pike. I think both teams have had some real bad calls against them. The two on Duke were very bad though

Theres NOTHING wrong with a two handed dunk or layup. Not everything has to be flashy
Carter should dunk always with two hands and quit the tongue sticking out stuff. It's obvious he can't do 2 things at one time.

Carter misses 3 out of four foul shots which really matters in this type of game .21-18 Rutgers half time.

I expect some large adjustments from Pike at half time, having a lead when we've played badly is a good thing

As bad as everyone is saying Illinois is playing, Rutgers is playing poorly and has not had Myles in the floor in 12 mininutes. It is amazing what you can do when you play defense...

Mu only fear is Illinois being the home team if they go on a little run the crowd will turn quickly. Need to come out of half like we did against penn state.

Can't be too mad. We've had arguably our MVP taken out of the game (thanks for the ******** refs), we can't throw it in the ocean and were up at half. Whoever makes the best adjustments on O will win. I like our chances.


dude Myles fouled..those were fouls..how can you argue that

Like the intensity and will take being up by 3 at half. We either need to make more threes or work harder for better shots. You have to assume Illinois shoots it a little better in the second half even if we keep playing well defensively.

Don’t know if I should be happy being up 3 playing like crap or being upset that we should be up double digits

Need Myles in 2nd half.
