Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Penn State

[sunsetregret]

Ped's been in double bonus since for last 9 mins...but only 4 fouls against this half. Unbelievable

It's because we don't play at the rim. Even when we dribble into the paint, we do something soft at the end, rather than force contact.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Rutgers loses 65-64 on a last second 3 pointer.

Wasn't last sec.
We had 10 sec. To get a 2 pointer. Didn't even get near the rim.

 

[bac2therac]

They are not calling a moving screen with 25 sec

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Pike is a horrible coach and lost this game

 

[Mr_Twister]

No dancing

Please go away!

 

[ScarletDave]

What did we do to deserve this as RUTGERS fans. No one NO ONE in the country experiences this at the rate and in the way we do

 

[greenknight]

Just another non ******* win. Glad to see no quit

 

[jordkap]

Why do we take a last second shot there too? Geo gets the ball, and have him drive it or shoot it

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

Please go away!

give me a break

 

[RU848789]

How much did we miss that AY layup that should've been easy to hit after the steal?

 

[bac2therac]

Rutgers running down the clock was hotlrrific..a full out panic again

 

[newell138]

Torture

 

[sunsetregret]

Wasn't last sec.
We had 10 sec. To get a 2 pointer. Didn't even get near the rim.

We had 22 seconds when we crossed half court. It was 10 seconds after they trapped Geo and he gave up the ball.

 

[RutgersChow]

Would have been nice to have that timeout. Never looked good the entire possession.

Would have had it if Geo didn't pick up his dibble and get trapped in the corner then call time out.

 

[rufeelinit]

Rutgers loses 65-64 on a last second 3 pointer.

Last second three pointer? We had 26 seconds to win the game after that.

 

[BOCA93]

They’d have been better tackling someone and putting them at the line for 2. How the F do you leave Dred open for 3, moving pick or not.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

They are not calling a moving screen with 25 sec

On Rutgers they would

 

[RU848789]

JY should've had the ball IMO - our best player tonight, who couldn't be stopped on dribble penetration...

 

[DHajekRC84]

******** no call on Harrar on the moving pick on Dredd's shot - effed hard on that one.

They are not going to call that.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Geo should have had that ball

Absolutely cannot allow them to shoot a 3

Come on bac, Yeboah was held on a moving screen on that Ped 3. Brutal non call

 

[bac2therac]

Pike is a horrible coach and lost this game

He lost it with the insane subs

 

[soundcrib]

The dumbest basketball player knows not to go below the screen to leave an open 3. We have the smartest engineer unfortunately

 

[brad1218]

Whatever. We were one ******* stop away from the tournament and we give up a wide open three. Unreal.

 

[brookdale-soda]

Screen from their center should've been called. Jeez. Nice foot movement on that screen.

Horrible

 

[newell138]

It’s worse that it was PSFuckinU

 

[RUboston]

Get the ball with 25 seconds to go, down one, and they can't come up with a coherent play.

 

[biazza38]

They are not calling a moving screen with 25 sec

The problem is refs have to establish this early. That can’t be allowed. Great call by PSU. They know that won’t be called. But that’s a foul. It’s blatant

 

[RUTrack94]

Ugh ... repeat of last year.

YTD .... I have made more than 4X my money with this formula.

1. Football: bet on any P5 team to win straight up

2. Basketball B1G road: bet on other team to win straight up

3. Basketball B1G home when favored: bet on other team taking the points

Ironically the one game I missed was Illinois at home.

Tonight every $210 you risked paid out $100.

 

[MV9000]

Gonna throwup

 

[bac2therac]

Come on bac, Yeboah was held on a moving screen on that Ped 3. Brutal non call

You are not getting the call..sorry

We had 25 seconds to take a good shot

 

[DHajekRC84]

We had 22 seconds when we crossed half court. It was 10 seconds after they trapped Geo and he gave up the ball.

Yes...my bad.

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

That was so deflating

 

[bac2therac]

Same game as last year

 

[IL Lusciato]

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

They are not calling a moving screen with 25 sec

but they should

 

[Scangg]

Geo should have had that ball

Absolutely cannot allow them to shoot a 3

Geo did have the ball. They trapped him. Should have went to Young to create after that

Blatantly illegal screen wins the game. It didnt even out. That was the deciding call of the game that directly changed the outcome

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

wasted timeout when Geo got caught in the corner.. that might be the reason we lost.. he should never have gotten the ball there

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Thinking about that last-second loss at Va. Tech...

 

[DHajekRC84]

Wow what a letdown after a huge comeback. Don't care how open a 3 was we are not a good 3 point shooting team. How did we not draw something up better than that?

Huh? Who doesn't know Pikes last play yet? Clearly PSU does too.

 

[RutgersChow]

It's because we don't play at the rim. Even when we dribble into the paint, we do something soft at the end, rather than force contact.

Great observation. Young and Mathis are the only two guards who drive aggressively
