Basketball Rutgers Basketball snaps losing streak, defeats Maryland

[bac2therac]

Tough shooting night for Francis but that 3 plus his fts big

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

No challenge on OOB?

 

[Rokodesh]

No challenge?

I don't get it, that's the right time to challenge

 

[BillyC80]

Over the top!

 

[Rokodesh]

Ogbole pushed out and the stupid **** announcer thinks he fell out on his own

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Refs R squeezing us down the stretch.

 

[fatsam98]

These announcers are so lost. I remember my first game too

 

[rob kight]

Maryland allowed 5 steps without a call

 

[BillyC80]

Refs R squeezing us down the stretch.

Sure seems like it.

 

[bac2therac]

Ok lets end this game already

In today's episode of "Let's get f***ed by the refs"......

 

[RUnotentertained]

No camera on other side of arena ??
Ridiculous

 

[Rokodesh]

These refs are ******* retarded, clearly off the knee

 

[BillyC80]

Dammit Manny, gotta clog that spot under the rim

 

[BillyC80]

Caught a break there, didn’t look like a foul.

 

[Bob Chaewsky_rivals]

The first thing you have to make sure of is that you protect under the basket.

It was, but unfortunately the camera angle didn’t show it.

 

[bac2therac]

Good win. Savor any win at this point. Pike won halftime. Riding great energy to start 2nd half. 1 turnover in 2nd vs 8 in 1st was huge part. Solid D and big shots by Z on a night where T wasnt at his best. Closed it out when Terps got to 5. Its a game we should have won at home and did. Rutgers deserved it

 

[BillyC80]

So instead of fouling Manny they foul Tariq. Dumb

 

[Bob Chaewsky_rivals]

Francis needs to give up the ball.

 

[fatsam98]

NJIT is now in Hoboken apparently

 

[PatrickRU92]

it did not. however in the 1st half they overturned our possession on a non-definitive replay

 

[Rokodesh]

NJIT is now in Hoboken apparently

He's thinking of Steven's lol

 

[Bob Chaewsky_rivals]

Player of the game 4-13? Trying to pad his points - give up the ball.

 

[RUJMM78]

Francis scoring at crunch time clinches the win.

 

[King of S]

Ok lets end this game already

Please! And they should be handing the fans refunds on the way out.

 

[RUnotentertained]

Today hurt our lottery chances

good win F Maryland !!!

 

[tm_nj]

the losing streak is over!

 

[fatsam98]

Great second half.

F u Terps

 

[Knight Shift]

SHOULD

 

[RU Mike73]

Today winning the 2nd half made all the difference.

 

[PhillyRU]

Zrno looked annoyed Francis didn’t want that turnover.

I thought Zrno took a step forward in terms of diversifying his offensive game. The increased pace of play from Bosnia to the B1G was always the biggest hurdle, I think with another offseason with that experience under his belt, he could be productive.

Powers, similarly, is continuing to grow as a passer, defender and is settling a bit less in the midrange.

Powers and Francis would be my offseason priorities. Zrno, Buchanan, Grant, Ogbole in that order would be my Tier 2, a keep for a competitive price.

I agree. The guy who shots 89% on foul shots needs to give it up when Maryland is fouling....

 

[BillyC80]

Having Francis to make free throws in the end game when we’re leading is a great advantage.

[Bob Chaewsky_rivals]

Was Lino Mark out?

You give up the ball in those situations so the clock keeps running. 89% or not, Md's only chance is to foul and shorten the game. Good coaches keep the ball moving.

 

[Fat Koko]

Was Lino Mark out?

Lino played one minute in first half.

Next time we have a good coach here on this board we can ask them.

Was Lino Mark out?

likely out of the rotation permanently.
