Basketball No. 8 Michigan State survives late surge against Rutgers Basketball
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
I really don’t know how anyone who watches this team can say Pike can’t coach and doesn’t develop players. I want to see what he can do with some b10 level chess pieces.
31-30, 1st half
60-57, 2nd half
That's crazy.

That was the free throw Davis didn’t make at our place to seal the win
We almost gave Michigan State a taste of their own medicine. Great effort by Rutgers.
good effort guys. let’s close the season out with a win this weekend
Rutgers best defense is a full court press that creates turnovers and time off the shot clock.They have plenty players on the roster to use that defense like St,Johns.The half court defense stinks allowing dunks,layups and wide open 3 pointers.
Damn, it would've made for a fascinating ending if he had missed one...
Idk but I might count this game a moral victory with all the heart we poured out.
Obviously they took advantage of us being shorthanded/in foul trouble at the 5, but that was a hell of an effort.
Hope they get a good crowd Sunday

Pike = King of Moral Victories (but not real victories)
Izzy was in a tizzy
With Knights getting busy
Bet you are not much fun at parties. Crap on Ogbole, now this.
Wait til his lockerroom praise of Pike
In fairness, there were a lot of instances where Michigan State broke our press and would have attacked with a numerical advantage in a normal circumstance. They just weren't inclined to do that with a big lead down the stretch.
We fell short, but that was one of the all-time best comebacks I’ve seen by RU in 50 years. Gotta be the best comeback that ended in a loss, especially when you consider it was on the road to the #8 team in the country.
Also wow with that over, one of the softest performances I've seen watching college basketball from DG tonight. 1-8 FG with about four air balls, and I think the most damning stat might be zero personal fouls while being physically abused all game long.
It's not a comeback when you lose (and don't even regain the lead).
We outscored MSU 30-16 in the final 5:21.
Incredible

Grant better not start against PSU
God was he awfull - might have even won if he didn't play - and he wants a million? He is a mid level D1 player AT BEST.
Credit where credit is due, we don’t even sniff that comeback without the flurry by Manny right before he fouled out.
Then Lino, Tariq, Powers, Buchanan, and Nwuli pitched in. Nothing from Grant and not much from Davis during that last 6-minute stretch.
