Basketball Preview/Game Thread -- 9-Rutgers vs. 1-Purdue

[RutgersNo1]

Same fvckin script

 

[Saint Puppy]

UGHHH

 

[scarletknight077]

Please dont give 3 up or foul..not worth it

Was it ever in doubt?

 

[bac2therac]

Lol gave up wide open shot yet again

 

[zappaa]

No reason for that to be wide open.
None

 

[RU848789]

How do we give up such a wide open trey?

 

[zebnatto]

Terrible Oskar.

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

So predictable

 

[gregkoko]

so same game plan as yesterday...wolf gets a bucket...we let up a 3 at half and win going away?

From your lips

Had to call it didnt you

 

[Rokodesh]

Jesus Christ

 

[NickRU714]

Watch it again

Edey or Simpson?
Both dunked and hung on.
Not much difference.

[RUBABY15]

have faith

 

[scarletknight077]

Great half tho. We’d all sign up to be down 1.

 

[RU Mike73]

I will take it. Let’s go RU.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

I mean Eady did a great job taking Palm out of the play. Gotta give them credit on that one.

 

[bac2therac]

Rutgers passing eye test and thats huge today

 

[Salvi's Headband]

Lol every single one of us knew Purdue was going to hit a 3 at the buzzer.

 

[RUJMM78]

Rurgers always allows a last second basket before half time.

 

[ScarletDave]

That’s not unexpected so not upset. Rutgers has to win games by 4 not by 1 because you have to take into account the guaranteed buzzer beater 3 before halftime by the other team. It must be in 90% of our game

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

I'll still take it

 

[gigantor1024]

Why does the time tick off?

 

[RUfubar_rivals]

Game being played on high level and enjoyable to watch for any fan

 

[RU848789]

"How do you adjust to the physical play that is apparently going to be allowed?" Question for Painter was so biased. Allowed? It's friggin' 11-3 in fouls.

 

[jrm75]

I can't stand Bardo anymore. He used to defend Rutgers. Now he always criticizes us and openly roots for the other team. What a jerk.

 

[kt124]

Why does the time tick off?

just the way it is for college in the 1st half only

 

[NickRU714]

Why does the time tick off?

Had same thought.
Plus Caleb just threw it. So clock shouldn't have started.

 

[Joey Bags]

Only down 1 with simpson sitting extended minutes, really good result overall

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Unreal the foul disparity. That leg kick was ******* hilarious for the Purdue and 1

 

[bac2therac]

24-11 Purdue run the last 13 and half minutes

 

[ScarletWalk11]

Overall good half especially given the foul trouble

 

[RUby RED]

Has Palm passed Hyatt? Neither played a good half but kinda crazy if so

 

[cm_13]

We’re right there. Keep battling

 

[mildone_rivals]

Playing #5 team in nation. Up most of the half, only down by 1 at the half. That‘s a good half by the team.

 

[RU848789]

Edey or Simpson?
Both dunked and hung on.
Not much difference.

https://www.foxsports.com/watch/play-642852b820016b9

Agreed, both should've been called, but Edey's was worse as he woofed at Wolf on top of it and hung longer.

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Had same thought.
Plus Caleb just threw it. So clock shouldn't have started.

Clock doesn't stop at end of 1st half. It's the right (rare) call by the refs

 

[zebnatto]

Had no Cliff or Derek for back end of half.

 

[RUfanSinceAnderson]

Rutgers passing eye test and thats huge today

I’m sorry if any committee member is watching this, with our resume how can you justify leaving us out. (ofc 6 bid stealers aside). We can play with anyone. I don’t care we have 4 Q3 losses. It’s who can you beat!

 

[RW90]

Once again, B1G crew disparagingly hinting at the physicality of RU. Not a fan.

 

[zappaa]

I can't stand Bardo anymore. He used to defend Rutgers. Now he always criticizes us and openly roots for the other team. What a jerk.

I’m hearing nothing but praise from him, think he’s great
