Finally, a basket

8-21 for MSU from downtown - that's a huge difference. Down 8 with 1:24 left.

Well, good effort, but when you have trouble scoring like we do, it’s going to be tough to beat teams like this. Just sucks to think what if we made all those chippies that we missed.

Dunk it, layups are not working

 

[RedTeamFan]

MSU defense kicked it up a notch the last 6 minutes. We just never found a way to adjust offensively

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Crispin tells it straight. Very complimentary but calling out the offense.

A+ effort by RU.

 

[ScarletLongIsland_rivals]

The upperclassmen simply don’t step up.

Did you expect anything else?

You think? Lol

A+ effort by RU.

Always an A+ effort. Extremely fun team to root for but also extremely frustrating.

 

[Mikemarc]

We win this game if we had Kiss, Harper and Mathis.

Just me or have refs decided to call games overly tight this year? Not fun to watch when refs blowing the whistle every 30 seconds

It comes and goes, but yes I’ve seen quite a few that have been called this way

 

[Dpgru]

The good news is this, the things we did well tonight - energy, intensity, defense, rebounds etc are things that will not, should not get worse. Hopefully, the shooting can get better. I said, better not good, just better. Tonight we are under 30%, How about we get to 35 - 40 . We will win a lot of games playing the way we did tonight and shooting 10% better.

Need a better shot than that. Bad drive by corey

 

[Shell21]

Corey with an atrocious game offensively . You can see he cannot create against longer athletic players

 

[RU848789]

Sanders didn't even hit the rim on that drive - he's really in a funk - he's not usually that bad on his drives.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

2.5 decades of futility will summon a little frustration

 

[soundcrib]

Corey: huge step back this year

 

[Jim_from_RU]

Sanders is awful.

 

[scarletKNIGHT07]

Do you get extra points for blindly chucking it over the backboard?

 

[DHajekRC84]

Corey with a wide open shot to get it to 6...over the rim by a foot! Come on man

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

I guess we can give A+ effort for chucking prayers at the rim

 

[biazza38]

Corey’s shot is wayyy off. Hopefully he finds it soon

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Sit Cory the rest of the game

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

13-17 from the line is appreciated

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Enuff NBA talk for Sanders.

That one ref is a chump

No one mentioned it...why the fuc are you talkin about it....give it a rest

 

[RU848789]

We are 14-18 from the line, which is great.

They were. Like the opposite of USC cheerleaders. All raven haired.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

What's the spread?

 

[RUeric]

Everyone needs to remember that MSU is the best defensive team in the country. This type of offensive performance has happened to way better teams than Rutgers against them. We are winning at least 6 B1G games this year.

Some lucky guys on the RU campus.

Agree totally....it’s what happens when people come out of the woodwork and can’t see the big picture.

 

[Caliknight]

Corey just can't finish. His jumping ability puts him in position to make tough shots, but he just doesn't have the skill to finish consistently at this level.

 

[Dpgru]

Why has Sanders regressed? It makes no sense. He has better players around him. He should be better

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Corey’s shot is wayyy off. Hopefully he finds it soon

SHU guards will be a mismatch for RU if Cory can't hit shots.

The lacrosse team no doubt.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Oh well. Gave it a go for awhile...

 

[Dpgru]

Good game. Could have won.
