RU playing well. Nation's attention is well deserved.
Rutgers vs Purdue / Game Thread
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
We played pretty well to be down 9 at the half. Kudos to Purdue. They played even better.
When Rutgers is playing a opponent with a high powered offense ,they can't have lulls in scoring .The last two minutes Purdue went from a one point lead to nine points at half time.Rutgers defense not up to par with Ivey driving to the basket and dunking the ball or getting fouled.A NBA player for sure.
Going to have to play our best defense of the year in the second half. Rarely does this team see 45 put up against them. Hope it has them angry and hungry.
Cliff score both FT after his first missed dunk…..can have both points and FTs
Two Amore's dunks and one less "two finger salute", and we're tied.
Halftime observations:
- Purdue has done a good job bottling up the paint when Paul has the ball. Has mostly neutralized him
- DNP from Hyatt - Mag got ALL of the backup forward minutes
- Geo needs to start hitting some shots. His mid range step back is off (0-3 so far)
- Does Trevion Williams EVER miss a shot?

This game is being played at a high level. 9 pt lead can easily be made up. Win the second half and we win the game
Cannot have Hyatt shooting
Purdue going in for kill
