RAC needs to rock on Tuesday

[Rhuarc]

This is a huge "prove it" kind of game. A top 25 team coming into our house needs to be beaten if we have hopes to dance. I have full confidence that the team will be ready. Can we shake the RAC enough to put us over the top? People need to be in their seats early and ready from the beginning to get the intimidation factor going.

Throughout all the drama and nonsense we've put up with over the last 3 decades as fans, we need to do our part in a winnable game. We've been waiting years for a moment like this. Let's not waste it. Screw the NFL playoffs, who's ready for a game still 90+ hours away??? Let's go.....

Weve gotta sell the place out, no excuses

 

[RUJMM78]

The team needs to start the games similar to Wisconsin and Seton Hall with stifling defense that gets the crowd into the game as the point spread widens.lets not kid ourselves thinking this will be a easy game.Penn State is ranked and has multiple go to scorers .The crowd must be loud on every Penn State possession.

already bought 2 tickets for Penn St. and Indiana.

SHU aside as being instate, PSU is the really true rival in the BIG. Unlike football, which has a huge athletic quality difference, BB can be it right now!
Missing Baker cannot be dismissed, but if they can play like last night and channel that SHU energy they can win this game.

Weather looks bad for Tuesday- hopefully it doesn’t deter crowd.

A little light rain (maybe 0.1" from late afternoon through mid-evening) shouldn't deter anyone, especially since basketball games are still played indoors last time I checked.

Do people think they will melt in the rain, I don't friggin get it. Get out there and support this team. No reason the RAC isn't packed.

It'll be one of the loudest games in the last 14 years. This checks all the boxes.

I think people will want to be in their seat early for tip off. I sure as hell do. Have you tried to park though? Those of us who work until at least 5pm and are a good distance from the RAC can barely get within a mile of the RAC by 630, so we don't have a prayer to be in our seats by tipoff with this f'd parking and traffic flow problem and the rent-an-attendants who only make it slower. And the parking pass scanning process. Oy.

Let’s hope there are not a ton of culters home on break. It hurts not to have the RU students on campus.

THIS!! I love it JUST HOPE ALL 3 sections behind the basket are students as well!!

It really does

years of ru futility...hungry fan base
Crappy football season that ended with hope
State penn highly ranked
RU with a chance to be ranked
Did I mention YEARS of futility?

How many RU students will bring their Pen St buddies into the student section?

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Nice tweet by the Riot Squad, but the group really needs to create a Steve Pikiell Pounding Nails gif.

Keep Choppin' is a Schiano/football thing.


Here's the link to buy the shirt... goes to a great cause.

My 12 year old son and I will be in student section!! How cool to be back in there!! I hope it’s ALL RU in those sections.

It was nearly 100% RU for SHU and I doubt PSU will bring more than they did, so I think it should be good.

Worried about traffic and the parking lot crew delays. Maybe shouldn't go into work at all.

To be safe

Games like this, you don't have to plead people to show up. Place will be a zoo all on its own

 

[Mr. Gerbz_rivals]

Will leave work early, plan to get to the parking lot by 5-530, eat at diner and walk over to RAC

Henry's Diner is closed during the break.

Henry's Diner is closed during the break.

Any other on campus suggestions?? Thanks for heads up.

The lack of a good Pizza joint within walking distance of the RAC is a big miss by the university/athletic department.

Between classes, all men’s games, women’s games, wrestling and gymnastics, this place would make a killing. Build it right in the grass lot across from Henry’s next to the business school. And a Buffalo Wild Wings next door.

Go in early to leave early, work through lunch, if you have a desk job

They didn't have any general public sales for the SHU game.

We really need a sports bar around the RAC and SHI. There is nothing around for miles.

Definitely

Look at The Rock, around 5 bars within steps from the arena for SHU games.

Rutgers could use one near The RAC

Don't think the rock is a fair comparison. Major arena. Not on campus. Tons of non sporting events. Devil games. Real question would be how many on campus arenas have places in walking distance?

Guess, we will grab bite on Stelton....quodobo, eh...
