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

[Salvi's Headband]

That was a huge play by Paul and Derek. Wow. Not dead quite.

 

[DaveSNJ]

Damn needed that board

How are leaving Gillis open

Players are gassed leaving it all on the court, but know what your saying

 

[mildone_rivals]

If it comes down to it, can we win a free throw contest?

Can.

 

[RUScrew85]

Bardo. The guy is beyond insufferable

Barf. Surprised he can talk with all the Purdue cocks in his mouth.

 

[RUfanSinceAnderson]

Theyll be lucky to get to sweet 16

All matchups. We are one of their toughest matchups Because of Cliff. If they play a team without a good big, they will advance. They will kill you with dumps to Edey.

 

[RUisB1Gtime]

Cant ***** about today's game either way....team is battling

 

[gigantor1024]

Damn needed that board

How are leaving Gillis open

Tired legs. We are facing up strong defensively but we’re getting killed on movement

 

[bac2therac]

Surprisingly im calm and at peace

Rutgers proves they are back and belong

All the angst is gone

 

[SBP]

Solid effort. If Purdue is a 1 seed then we deserve to be in

Oh we are in… trying to avoid DAYTON

 

[koko2315]

If the “eye test” is a real and relevant thing, we’ve passed.

like a different team overnight

 

[RUChoppin]

You'd think a conference like the B1G would have decent BB and FB refs.

The scariest thing is, the b1g has some of the better refs in the country. It's just that the state of officiating is pretty universally poor. If you want to see some really painful, claw out your eyes officiating, watch some women's basketball.

 

[YoucancallmeRay]

Good effort . But looks like it’s over

Bs

 

[scarletknight077]

If we played like this we woulda beat Minnesota Michigan and northwestern

Surprisingly im calm and at peace

Rutgers proves they are back and belong

All the angst is gone

even with a loss I hope this game was enough to prove we deserve a bid

Meanwhile Mississippi State plays a good team and are getting absolutely rolled

 

[RU1977]

Only down by 4 with 4 min to go....

Yeah but women's basketball isn't a real sport. No one cares about that.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

I'm content but we are right there. Those timely 3's by Purdue just fking killed anything we had going. Frustrating AF

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

need to hit 3s to have a chance

 

[Rokodesh]

Derek rushed it

 

[RU848789]

looking tough now...

 

[RUScrew85]

Yep. We're back to respectable.

 

[bac2therac]

Edey unleashed

 

[koleszar]

That was an important possession, don't like that Simpson shot. Now it's big time danger time.

 

[Ridge 22]

If it comes down to it, can we win a free throw contest?

No

You'd think a conference like the B1G would have decent BB and FB refs.

right, because the refs all gather together before every game to collude against us. Forget that there is zero motivation for them to risk their careers for zero upside. Much more likely they just don't like us and are trying to be mean. How about we just take care of our own **** and stop making excuses

 

[RUChoppin]

Yeah but women's basketball isn't a real sport. No one cares about that.

I gave up watching it years ago, tbh. The officiating was just so bad that games between closely matched opponents might as well have been decided by a coin flip.

don't be ridiculous. nobody watches women's basketball.

 

[fatsam98]

That was a offensive foul in the first half

 

[bac2therac]

Meanwhile Mississippi State plays a good team and are getting absolutely rolled

Big

 

[scarletknight077]

Lol not a foul on edey?

 

[RUSeaGirtMA]

Why is Edey allowed to shove and elbow at will?

 

[DaveSNJ]

It's going to be large dose of Edey down the stretch

 

[RutgersNo1]

Stay healthy.
On to next one

 

[RUChoppin]

No

He didn't say anything about bias, just poor performance.

 

[RUHotTrumpetMonkeyLove]

No need for that.

 

[mildone_rivals]

It was a foul before the shot. Wave it off and give Cliff the foul shot(s).

 

[RUScrew85]

don't be ridiculous. nobody watches women's basketball.

"women"

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

I’ll hold out for a miracle, but thinking we just need to keep this close. Less than 10.

 

[bac2therac]

Thats a tough call

TV Teddy was barred from B1g? Saw him last night West coast.

 

[RUScrew85]

Why is Edey allowed to shove and elbow at will?

I know, right.
