Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers versus Indiana

[hbbsm713_rivals]

Wow did not see us only being down 3 at half. Feel pretty good about it

 

[RUfubar_rivals]

We got them right where we want them.

 

[RU848789]

“Rutgers hangin around”. Damn right!

Rounders...

[mildone_rivals]

Good half.

 

[gigantor1024]

So we need to be a 3 point team now?

 

[anon1753890747]

Simpson with the Geo look

 

[RU Mike73]

Weathered that first half firestorm. Go RU. We win this in 2nd half.

 

[tfio]

Indiana. Mentally weak. Break them.

 

[Caliknight]

Not clicking that!

 

[RUisB1Gtime]

Indiana has to be nervous. They threw haymakers and we are right there . .let's go!!

 

[nealbo1]

Best half by Indiana all year and we’re down 3. We’re winning this game. Bank it!

 

[RUTrack94]

Alright … only down 3 … striking distance!!!!!!

 

[Scangg]

Can we stop admitting defeat 5 minutes into games?

 

[Caliknight]

Indiana. Mentally weak. Break them.

[fluoxetine]

I don’t know how we’re only down 3 but boy will I take it.

Simpson trying a bit too hard to be Geo 2.0

 

[ScarletteK80]

Andre, Andre, Andre!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PiscatawayMike]

IU can't play any better and it's only up 3.

 

[bac2therac]

Our defense got better late.



Closed half on 19-6 run

Helps to make shots

Players stepping up

pike switching lineups around might be keeping Indiana off guard

Considering it was overall subpar half for Rutgers on both ends, we have a teal shot here.

 

[RW90]

Its a game ladies

38-35 halftime

All you can ask for after that horrific run.

 

[RUTRINI_rivals]

WIN FOR MAG!!!

 

[Arizona Knight]

Big balls. This team has big ol balls regardless of what happens tonight.

 

[Nycrusupporter]

We should be very happy with where we are. We are so lucky Indiana is so soft. We need to clean a lot of things up.

 

[Ruthinking]

Did anyone else see the double dribble by Trace on the replay where they praised his pass

 

[fluoxetine]

Can we stop admitting defeat 5 minutes into games?

NEVER

Was it over when the Germans dropped a helium bomb on Pearl Harbor?

 

[RUz91]

Let's go boys we got this

 

[nealbo1]

Rounders...

Hangin around. . . hhhhangin aroundddd

 

[anon1753890747]

A 16 point half from Paul we win
JOHN 3:16

 

[jordkap]

Indiana played their A half and is up 3. I like our chances

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Great end to the half there

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Paul needs to pull simpson aside and tell him if he shoots again hes gonna skull **** him. That kid has never seen a shot he didnt like. Comes in cold off bench, touches the ball and immediately chucks

 

[RUfubar_rivals]

Simpson needs to cut down on caffeine & sugar

 

[Corycord1]

Offensively we played great. Just some dumb none winning plays that need to be eliminated in the 2nd half. Heat check 3s (Simpson) ISO ball (Caleb). Let’s play some tough D and we’ll be right there at the end of the game

 

[koleszar]

Indiana. Mentally weak. Break them.

 

[BigEastPhil]

Miracle we’re only down by 3 given how bad we played and how hot Indiana was. Unreal 3 point shooting kept us in game a la Hyatt / Oskar and Cam.

 

[#1 RUFan]

I'll go to battle any day with our lunch pail kids against all these blue chippers. Some of you really need to question if you're true fans with some of the **** you say about our kids.

 

[RuBird]

Love this team. Team plays with heart. Pike will make halftime adjustments. Let us remember first game without Mag. Lots to figure out on the fly

 

[Scangg]

Indiana likely deflated going into half up 3 after the start. Let the doubt start to creep in

 

[Ruthinking]

Did anyone else see the double dribble by Trace on the replay where they praised his pass

He started to dribble… stopped because it hit his thigh and then started again

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Also I am loving the 630 start!

 

[ScarletteK80]

Holy shite Oskar!

I said the same thing.
