Minnesota and Wake Foreat
- Thread starter JoeDell27
- Start date
Reminder we had a 10 point lead with a minute left lol. One of the worst losses in Rutgers sports history and probably the reason we didn't dance. You could replay that last minute 100 times and we'd win 99 times.
And the dude that killed us by making all of those tough shots transferred out. NIL.
Rutgers rarely scores 75 points even against mediocre opponents.The game will be on the road which means Rutgers probably will be the underdog.
It's a bad coach that doesn't know when to just let the dogs hunt. Johnson should be looking into other career options.
Similar to the Houston loss in the Big Dance. Everything that could go wrong down the stretch, did go wrong.
Except Houston was a final four caliber opponent and Minnesota was the worst team in the Big Ten
Elon? Steve Forbes? Was this a game between billionaire CEOs?
The dude who missed the critical foul shot and the dude who made the ill-advised cross-court pass also transferred out because of NIL
I can't believe Minnesota lost that game. Almost unfathomable with the lead they had.
But not the guy who inexplicably passed it backwards instead of crossing the half court line.
The Houston loss was worse. Never know what could have happened that year had we won
More costly, sure, but also much more explainable from level of opposition. Oh well x2.
Me too. Honestly, it's almost spooky how everything went wrong after the Johnson missed dunk. If we needed the ball to bounce right, it bounced left.
Nice job! Of course you are correct that it was a perfect storm of us imploding as well as Jamison Battle going nuts. And it cost us a trip to the NCAA tournament. Brutal.

Myles was involved in two devastating plays, either one of which probably wins the game.
-Missed dunk
- The missed late rebound that literally hit his hands.

I forgot how badly offensive rebounds killed us too.
Truly awful thing is if we get a stop on that first make at 1:05 or whatever I bet Minnesota doesn't even foul.
