I don’t want to hear anything about coaching, anything about defense, young, old... WE MISS STANDING STILL WIDE OPEN 3s. That is the story. Pikiell needs to go out and get 1 guy who can do this. Our inability to make wide open shots accounts for at least 3 losses this season!!’nnn

well that is it game over...got it to 9 and then simply caught not playing defense and goodnight irene

Pike looking like he wants to stick with this 5, maybe one more guy, the rest of the way not sure they’ll hold up been playing a lot minutes down the stretch

It’s really not hard to understand.
Rutgers is shooting better than Wisc.
Why is nobody saying Wisc defense is a travesty?

Because our offensive gameplan is a travesty.

Everyone saying “it’s not the offense - we are shooting 75%” miss the point.
We should be blowing them out based on that.

If our offense has any semblance of effectiveness then we wouldn’t be getting blown out - regardless of Wisc shooting great from 3.

The fact we have made more shots than them but losing by double digits isn’t good offense.

61-54 and momentum and then as usual lax defense on a 3 point shot by Geo. Sticking your hand out towards his chest is not defending a shooter.
