[whofrewdatmataRU13]

missed about 8 layups/fast break points

 

[Rokodesh]

Awful first half

 

[Joey Bags]

Game

 

[Saint Puppy]

Simpson CALM DOWN!!!

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Worst half of the season so far?

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Absolutely awful first half.

 

[bac2therac]

Our offiency numbers going to plummet

You have to work hard to win and we arent

Had it to 4 with the crowd and self destructed

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

Way to show up guys

 

[rucoe89]

That. Was. Bad.

 

[Shell21]

missed the first half . 42 points? wtf is going on?

 

[FIJI'83]

Any thought that this team could actually win the big ten was/is ridiculous

 

[biazza38]

Guess I can turn this off

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

6/15 on layups.

 

[kt124]

these are the types of offenses we’ll be seeing in the postseason so gotta get ready

 

[RU to the Core]

Wow. Terrible. All out of sorts. 6 for 15 on layups. Out of control. Paul is out of it.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Simpson CALM DOWN!!!

Id sit him the 2nd half. Hes playing like its pick up ball

 

[RUTrack94]

Missed dunks … out-rebounded … fouling on a three … three point shots rimming out … just missed beating a shot clock violation … 30 foot three pointers … missed layups back to back to back … welcome to the typical crap game … still have an entire half to get close …admittedly shocked Iowa missed the three at the half.

 

[RUby RED]

Hyatt and Spencer gonna need extended burn in the 2nd half. Need threats from 3

 

[DHajekRC84]

Bunnies

A pathetic performance

All lack of focus. Pike should have called TO and RIPPED THE CRAP OUT OF THEM vs. waiting for bigger halftime hole.

 

[Joey Bags]

Mag and simpson score more points for the other team

 

[anon1753890747]

Ugly exposed, where is Mulcahy?
We need him at 12 plus points every game or we are just average

 

[leftoright]

discombobulation magnified

 

[shields]

Simpson out of control.

 

[Luvscarletknights]

Interesting we are down double digits getting killed on wide open 3’s Reiber comes in gives us the best defense on a 3 all game and he is the one you decide to call out!

He is right. Rieber barely reacted.
Entire section said the same thing.

It happened against Matyland as well.

 

[G- RUnit]

Mag hurting us big time. Simpson awful. Paul has to take over and get to top of key.

Spencer only player who showed up.

 

[rucoe89]

Iowa may give the rest of the league the blueprint against us that Willard hinted to already -- ramp up the defense cause Rutgers doesn't have an offense worth a lick.

 

[bac2therac]

Cam should have stayed in game with 2...bad move by Pike and he had Cliff out
.critical...

 

[Saint Puppy]

Bad half.....D improved in the last 10 minutes, but we need to lean on our offense now which is scary!

 

[rudad02]

Simpson is too cocky for his own or the team's good.

 

[Roy_Faulker]

Tired legs must be a factor here.

 

[gef21]

Any thought that this team could actually win the big ten was/is ridiculous

So... 1 bad b10 game half vs the others is how you define the season? Pessimistic much?

 

[DHajekRC84]

Just listening on the radio, so I'm not seeing the offense, but the difference in this game as opposed to recent big wins is, we are allowing the opposition to put points up.

And missing 2 foot shot after 2 foot shot and just not playing together.

 

[anon1753890747]

MaCaffrey has gameplaned to force us to go to Mag on the offensive end. Love his d but he is bad with the ball in so many ways

 

[greenknight]

Would give Dean some time here

Dean got beat on a simple drive to the basket. He trailed him on his hip instead of just beating him to the spot. Basketball 101 take the spot player wants get to away from hin. Make him go option 2. Instead he stays on hip picks up the terrible and 1 foul. College basketball have to be better than that. He got yanked out less than a minute later

 

[leftoright]

Don't see fire coming out of coach

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

We haven’t played many teams with a very good offense like this

 

[Corycord1]

How many times this team passes up an open 3 for a contested shot is maddening. Paul and Hyatt and Mag need to pull the trigger when they’re open

 

[Nycrusupporter]

Terrible first half. Pike should invite Dr. J in to teach these guys body control around the basket. We need to have a body on Rebraca at all times. Hyatt never seems ready to shoot when he catching the ball on the perimeter.

Way way too slow for this

I mean you hope, and then RU reality kicks in. Brutal
