Rutgers is still really good team

[rutgersfan1766]

Rutgers is still a top 4 team in the league.

Bad shooting days happen.

Next.

Better beat OSU.

 

[bac2therac]

no they are not top 4

1. Iowa
2. Wisconsin
3. Illinois
4. Michigan

The problem is that MSU just provided the blueprint to beating this team.

1. Don’t allow any transition offense
2. Tightly guard the 3 point line
3. Contest any drives (aside from JY) and send them to the line

Lmfao if you think we’re a top 4 team after tonight. We’re maybe a top 8 team. I know you’re never as bad as your worst game, but that was awful and too many guys are taking plays off

RU is no Kansas.

Sometimes it happens. If Myles could ever shoot free throws(not sure it will ever happen), we could have cut it to 9 points.

If that happened, and then got a couple of more stops, it would have put pressure on MSU and then who knows what might have happened?

Best of Luck,

We played fine on D. Offense was atrocious. One game doesn't make or break a season. Let's win on Saturday

Kansas was home in this game too.

I really don't think at this point he can improve from the line. He just needs to sit at crunch time in close games.

We did not play fine on D. We caused lots of turnovers early but gave up tons of easy looks and layups.

We haven't played fine on D in weeks. And We've been 0ut rebounded 3 games in a row I think. That didn't happen last year.

Myles started 7-11 FTs the first 5 games
Last 5, 3-17 since Cliff got hurt, maybe putting to much pressure on himself.

Bad games happen. If they can battle through adversity I like that a lot more than if they don’t face any until the postseason. If they can’t battle through adversity at least we’ll know early. I think they can though

Try underhand?

This team needs to be a defense and rebounding team again. If the offense and shooting improve, great. But we used to be able to survive bad offensive nights. Rebounding and defense is how this team became successful. We were killed on the boards again last night.

MSU had about 100 turnovers. Texas shot lights out against Kansas. We quit tonight and it was pathetic

I think you forgot one.
4. Play them away from the RAC.

Going back to last year, the knock on Rutgers is they are great at home and not good elsewhere. That is going to plague them, especially in NCAAT seeding.

Top 20 teams do not lose by 23 points.

Kansas was ranked #3 and got blown out by 25 points by Texas at home and dropped 3 whole spots this past Saturday . We lost on the road to #23 Michigan State. Those are facts. Arguably playing the worse game we have played in 2-3 years . The same team just 3 days before lost to now # 4 Iowa 77-75. There is some dispute whether those same players played both games or whether someone invaded our kids.
