Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Illinois

[ballgame4u]

one week they let the kids kill each other next week they cant breath on each other

 

[cyrock3]

We've been fouling them.

I'm not going to complain about the refs here.

 

[Spare130_rivals]

46 hours from now this will be forgotten!

 

[Colbert17!]

Keep feeding RHJ

 

[bac2therac]

Sometimes a team is just better

 

[Plum Street]

We are playing a lot of zone ...or at least attempting to

 

[Ridge 22]

Embarrassing so far

 

[bac2therac]

Omfg Duke..slam that

 

[tfio]

Dude cmon Duke

 

[koleszar]

Doicoure and Mathis on the court at the same time. This could get ugly.

 

[tfio]

What a shitshow

 

[RuBird]

I cant take people seriously when they ***** about every foul

Not every foul. Just very strange that somehow again that we again have double the fouls versus our opponent

 

[zebnatto]

Not looking good so far.

 

[bac2therac]

Our hustle is lacking. Illinois means business and we are not matching their intensity

 

[rtabachk]

Awful miss by Doucoure... Awful turnover by young.... Awful foul by Mathis..... Wtf is going on mentally? Harper is the only one with any game today.

 

[RUPartisan]

Duke please just dunk it next time.

 

[RUJMM78]

Illinois showing why they will be a number 1 NCAA seed.32-18 score.

 

[FRA10Thunderbolt]

Jacob what the hell was that?

 

[Plum Street]

Getting run out of the gym .
maybe 10 seed . Baker the missed shot taker

 

[Rutgers25]

Not in the same universe as Illinois when Geo is not making things happen.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Maybe one year we’ll have a center that never gets a foul called on him like Garza and Kofi

 

[RU848789]

This is just not our night. They're playing really well, we're not, and we're not getting any calls, to boot (although that's minor compared to the first two). It's time to put Myles back in or there will be no chance of even keeping this close.

 

[RUsojo]

Illinois is phenomenal great coaching meets great recruiting.

 

[bac2therac]

They want to retire Geos jersey but geez does he know there is a game tonight

 

[Plum Street]

Awful miss by Doucoure... Awful turnover by young.... Awful foul by Mathis..... Wtf is going on mentally? Harper is the only one with any game today.

Yes , Harper came to play

 

[shields]

Myles can't get foul 30 seconds in the game. Think.

 

[koleszar]

one week they let the kids kill each other next week they cant breath on each other

Well to be fair Cockburn at this point, could probably cold cock someone and not get a foul called

 

[theRU]

Looking very mediocre @Usbcbowler

 

[bethlehemfan]

Their guard play is way better to this point and that’s the difference

 

[sport2231]

Wake up call for where these two teams have gone since December

 

[cyrock3]

Awful miss by Doucoure... Awful turnover by young.... Awful foul by Mathis..... Wtf is going on mentally? Harper is the only one with any game today.

Awful foul?

Cockburn isn't a good free shooter.

At this point, hack a Cockburn is our best play to stop them.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Paul complains after every foul lol

He's complaining that he's not getting any damn help when leaves to help the lazy *** guard defense. . Just 2 guys playing any D near our rim. Paul and whomever is playing center.

 

[ScarletDave]

Any of you surprised by the score when we’re playing Doucoure basically a walk-on versus Kofi Cockburn need to have your head examined. 2 fouls on both Myles and Cliff before 10 min mark of first half is exact recipe for blowout. Too bad

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Since I’m already pissed off watching this, can we talk about this friggin Dr. Pepper commercial I’ve been subjected to incessantly for months now? Get that **** off air.

 

[MadRU]

Geo has lost the eye of the tiger. Doesn’t look intense at all.

Wake the F up

 

[RUsojo]

This is not a game we are meant to win but at least Ron is showing some aggressiveness in his game and Pike dialing up some PnR for him the last few games more than he has all year.

It’s all about winning a tournament game at this point

 

[Plum Street]

They want to retire Geos jersey but geez does he know there is a game tonight

Who does ?
I think we all can appreciate his efforts here and understand he’s just an average guy.

 

[Rutgers25]

They want to retire Geos jersey but geez does he know there is a game tonight

geo has had many memorable moments and has been a critical part of the programs turnaround, but he is an average player.

 

[RUPartisan]

Please don't get silly that was a positive opinion piece by one writer.

Im liking the All State Pet Shop Boys of late
