Appalachian State Almost Beat Wake Forest
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
as I said, they are not good, they do not play good defense. Their guards may be quick but RU's strength is defense. RU will be able to get theirs
And their star, Appleby, had to be helped into the locker room with an ankle injury

Defense was not the reason they beat Wisconsin.
The team shot 54% and Appleby scored 32.
All Appalachian State had to do with 2.3 seconds left is get the ball in bounds and they win. Free throws at the other end. But they threw it away setting up last second shot.
Inbounds plays when executed properly can be critical, as anyone who has followed RU can attest
Yeaaa I'm gonna go out on a limb and say zero chance he plays Saturday. Massive break for Rutgers as this WF game is a must win. Need to stop the bleeding. Need an OOC win
Yea that injury looked bad. I’d be surprised if he’s not out a couple weeks at a minimum.
Oof - I hadn't seen this. There is NFW he is playing 3 days after that. The only question is which guy on Wake is going to come off the bench and dump 20 on us.
I know it’s not a part of The Pike’s Plan BUT a wire-to-wire stress-free W here would be nice.
I’m trying to figure out why @RutgersSouthFL thinks my post is “funny?” Looks like I’m about to be spot-on (and thrilled). What a weird, creepy response WHEN we’re up 20 and have LED THE ENTIRE GAME, right?
App St with the lead and the ball with 2 secs left and they lose, absolutely brutal.
Well, I was half right. The kid still played, but a guy that was benched against App State came off the bench and scored 22 points,
Not sure why you’re calling out posters for using the reaction feature, but since you asked, I “laughed” because you wrote “I know it’s not a part of The Pike’s Plan” to win a game in dominant fashion. As if a coach plans to only win a game by a few points.
Yeah, I think Pike and most coaches would bottle yesterday and take that every time. Fans as well.Not sure why you’re calling out posters for using the reaction feature, but since you asked, I “laughed” because you wrote “I know it’s not a part of The Pike’s Plan” to win a game in dominant fashion.

Yes and No - As a Rutgers fan of course I want to see 24 point blowout where the game is pretty much never in question. As a basketball fan it was not a good game - and I do like seeing good games.
True, but I’d rather watch those games happen to another team.
I can’t ask why a poster reacted to my quote? lol okay!Not sure why you’re calling out posters for using the reaction feature, but since you asked, I “laughed” because you wrote “I know it’s not a part of The Pike’s Plan” to win a game in dominant fashion.

@RUPete - don’t feed the troll. You should be able to read my words and know that I was completely joking around by now.
It’s all good! BTW- your friend Tim Smith was sitting courtside with Hobbs - where were you to exchange pleasantries?
Hilarious that you randomly brought up my screen name in this thread for the sole purpose of trolling and then one post later call ME a troll. You’re embarrassing yourself but I think you know that. I also think you lash out at others to change the subject from each wildly wrong prediction and observation you post on this board. It’s actually amazing how consistently off base you are.
This is a strangely specific attack coming from someone who has apparently only been here since Nov 30, 2022.
He’s had over 60 monikers. Biggest troll on the boards.
Being a "troll" is bringing up someone in a thread they haven't even posted in. That's exactly what you did in this thread and it's right there for everyone to see. You've been proven wrong once again, but you're used to that.
WOW….a RESPONSE is a RESPONSE whether it’s words or an emoji. You’ve also had over 60 monikers. I’ve had…ONE..so who’s the “troll,” again?
