Would just like to see Williams hit some shots for next year. That is my hope that he gets more comfortable.

68-52 IU.

11 and 4 spend considerable time on the pine.

We hung close with them at Indy but are now officially in a tailspin.

IU 71 - RU 53

 

[Sweet Pea's Corner]

Indiana 103
Rutger 47

 

[RUJMM78]

A barrage of 3 pointers will be the difference.The only interest will be seeing what happens after 5 minutes with the starters.


Indiana 72 Rutgers 54

Like shields said, i would like to see Williams find a 3 or two and foreman continue to play well. If that happens i will be happy.

Always want Mack to shine too as he deserves it.

RU 67

Gutsy call Mr Kelly!!!

RU 98
IU 38

 

[DHajekRC84]

RU breaks 60 (home bound in yet another storm and started drinking early)... all I got.

Indiana 71
Rutgers 53

I'm sure Rutgers will be focused after the Iowa debacle however Indiana is quick and talented and we simply can't match their athleticism.

Further, Indiana is coming off a home loss to Purdue and to retain NCAA Dance status - they can't lose this game.

Indiana wins by 12-15 points....though we keep the game rather competitive.....

 

[waretown]

Mack hits game winner at buzzer!

 

[toby83]

we scored 64 at their place. they are the worst defensive team in the big ten and it's not even close. they are ranked about #340 in defensive efficiency on the road, literally only about ten teams worse.

we actually defend the three point line well at home this season.

this could actually be a fun one to watch if we can knock down some open shots.

Why? This is a serious question. I would like to hear something positive for a change.

The line on the game is Indiana minus 6 1/2.
You can clean up if you are right!

 

[Local Shill]

Because the "optics" of the CC President publicly declaring RU will lose would be bad.

There's no even semi-legitimate reason based on basketball being played that RU will win.

We did play well first game, need Etou to show up.

 

[Local Shill]

Yes, played well but then folded like a tent down the stretch as we've seen more times then I can count.

RU 61
IU 65

Because we have to keep a home game close eventually....right?

 

[bac2therac]

I am shocked the spread is that low. RU has no homecourt advantage to speak of and are coming off of 3 straight non competitive performances...2 of them at home and the other to a wobbly Iowa by 34 their worst loss of the season

 

[shields]

Folded down the stretch, bench points that game was Indiana 26-0 . Our bench stinks.

 

[RutgersJoe]

I think taking the under at 134.5 is a fairly safe bet as well

 

[toby83]

Unders have been hitting at a huge % in the Big Ten this season. poor offenses mostly. Indiana only team would blindly play an over with.

 

[toby83]

game is white out according to team site...do they hand out t-shirts?

First 1000 I believe, because they only want 1000 of the fans to be wearing white, and there is so much white Rutgers gear floating around....

My prediction? The RAC is taken over by fluffy pink unicorns from mars that want to be our friends, but only know how to destroy.

Or we lose.

Only two options really, which one seems plausible?

I'd love to be wrong though, and will still be cheering till my voice is a thing of the past.

 

[RutgersRaRa]

If Eddie starts Myles, Doorson, Foreman, Kone, and Etou, we can win this. Jack, Williams, and Lewis off the bench, with a spell from Daniels at guard. Also, IU has lost four straight road games.

Rutgers wins, 113-28. Just sayin'.

 

[toby83]

only first 1k makes no sense

even better when you're bringing three small kids and don't want too much time to kill before tipoff. no shirts for them.

 

[Caliknight]

We are overmatched athletically, but the effort has been much better tonight at least.

 

[Local Shill]

Bump.
