Basketball Rutgers Basketball's season ends with loss to UCLA in Big Ten Tournament
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Only down 6, feels like we dodged a few bullets.
I’ll take a six point halftime deficit as badly as we played offense
We could not have played much worse and we're only down 6.
I’ll take it with Tariq in an ice bath right now.
There was close to a minute left when we got that board. How do you not go 2 for 1 there? I’m not a huge 2 for 1 person at the end of the half, but that was terrible
JMike having two elite games in a row was too much to ask
Ok. Still in this. Get Francis going second half. Maybe he some bad clams last night.
Neutral fans always root for the underdog during conference tourneys.
Yeah, poor half for Buchanan (probably deserved that bucket and FT) and Francis. If these guys can settle in, this could be a good one.
I think we get a lot of love around the conference. Real fans know we had a mountain to climb to there here.
The more athletic guards of UCLA have locked Francis up on D. We’ll see how Tariq responds, I expect him wake up 2nd half. We won’t win without Tariq at least having a good 2nd half.
Yep. Need to be within striking distance at the first media timeout. Otherwise... good night, Irene.
They missed a few obvious travels on UCLA as well, may have missed a few on us too so maybe that’s evened out.
Idk, ucla is due for a hot-shooting stretch. I don't see that from us in this game.
The flip side is that UCLA only shot 9-27 (33%) overall and 4-13 from deep, and they’re still up by 6. If they shoot more in line with their season average in the 2nd half, they’re going to run us out of the building unless we also improve on offense.
What happened to Grant man. Just a shell of his former self
Grant and Buchanan Throw so much junk at the rim instead of taking a shot
