Rutgers vs Miami / Game Thread

[TODDB33]

What a great win on the road. Think we were double digit dogs. I read every post of this 12 page thread and noticed lots of stats being posted

Some posters were complaining about players, schemes etc within first 5 minutes of game. However to their credit as the game changed their naritive changed also

I found one poster that came across as his usual Debbie downer. On the first page he posted 4 time and all were negative. He never posted anything either negative or positive over the next 11 pages.

And he calls himself a proud nj sports fan. If so how come nothing positive posted on the game. Just curious

This is the type of game which Rutgers has lost in the past because of the inability to score in the last 3 minutes.Today both teams had difficulty scoring which meant rebounding and defense were important factors in deciding the final outcome.This was a team win because different players contributed on offense and defense.Baker was the leading scorer and made a critical block shot in the last ten seconds of the game.Thiam made two critical foul shots and Doorsan got double digit rebounds.Eugene and Kiss made important baskets and Harper and Mathis played meaningful minutes.Pikiell coached a masterful game on the road making substitutions and calling time outs at critical times.

this this and this. Despite geo playing like 39 minutes he was well rested down the stretch due to pikes clock mgmt. man is it refreshing to have a consummate professional leading your program unlike football

Just enjoy the W. Issa hit 2 big FTs down the stretch.

So clutch. He misses the front end and we probably lose that game.

Crazy game this basketball thing...he was 1-5 on threes. Next game at home he could be 3-5

I think Issa’s biggest contribution tonight was his help holding Vasiljevic to just 3 points on 1-8, 1-6 from 3p.

Would love to bottle whatever Pike told them about defense after the St. John's game. Since giving up 85 to the Johnnies: 36, 44, 54 points allowed.

This victory will go a long way in finishing the season with a winning record.

I recall Pike saying that GB was going to be a star this year. Was good last year; now a real difference maker.

Shaq with 10 rebounds....big presence inside for us. We will miss him next year!!

Gutsy ugly road win.

Geo is the man.
He could use a few more breathers someone to spell him.

Team needs to shoot better.

Eugene has to be better than he was tonight.

Take that road win and come back home
