As bad as the team played they were only down 6 at the half and down 11 with 7:36 remaining.
Then the wheels fell completely off.
At 7:36 RU was down 51-40. They would not score again until 39 seconds were left in the game.
It was a 14-0 run for Michigan State that put RU down 65-40.
Literally, the whole team shot horribly during this stretch.
Geo missed a jumper.
Myles missed a free throw.
Jacob Young missed a layup.
Harper Jr. missed a jumper.
Jacob Young missed a jumper.
Caleb McConnell missed a jumper
Caleb McConnell missed a jumper.
Paul Mulcahy missed a layup.
Finally at 0:39 Mamadou makes a dunk and free throw.
Hopefully, RU never has another scoring drought like this for the rest of the year. It was painful to watch.

It's basketball and MSU had similar stretches that look like what you described at Minnesota and at Northwestern....the fans acted like that was going to happen for the next 2 months for MSU.....it was a bad stretch of basketball....RU, just like any other team across the country, is allowed to hit some peaks and have some valleys as well.

It is a marathon not a sprint folks. Over 20 league games 4 to 5 games will be bad....4 to 5 games will be good.....the other 10 to 12 will be what or however good you actually are.

We have zero low post scoring when Myles plays like this. It’s scary how bad it was
