For all critiquing me: take a deep breath and realize if we lost that game at the buzzer, you wouldn’t be on here all energetic to kill anyone criticizing the team. The offense was bad, and I question the coaching as much or more than the players. Simpson can’t go from 5-7 for 10 pts 3 days ago to 1-3 for 2 pts against a slow *** team like Wisconsin. We make it too hard on ourselves.
Just stop while you are way behind

Just my opinion. They smoke and mirror their way to wins every year with a slow tempo and by rarely turning the ball over, hitting 3s and they usually have some guys with post moves. They have even less talent than usual and our team a month ago would boat race them.
What your missing is we didn’t play them with the team we had a month ago and we STILL won the game ON THE ROAD. You don’t smoke and mirror 16 wins in this conference. Every attribute you said the have is not smoke and mirrors, it’s playing good basketball
Coach to players. Alright guys to win todays game we need to play game at a slow tempo to limit opponent’s opportunities. Second we need to keep turnovers at the minimum. Third if you have a clean open at the3 take it if not get it back in to the post where we have some guys with good moves.
Yeah that kind of playing is all smoke n mirrors. Mr Scarlet you have no idea what you are talking about

The defense was an A, the offense was a D. A low enough D to leave the final grade at C. You enjoyed watching us on offense in that second half? By effort, I mean performance. The effort level was high.
We won the game give it a break

Fine, if you include physical effort, bump it up.

What’s comical about people hitting me for my perspective is that I clearly have a much higher opinion of the team and their abilities than the rest of you.🤷‍♂️
No way in hell is that a correct statement

Those kind of statements happen when you have a lot of fair weather fans jumping on aboard and on this board the last few years. Bandwagon fans always complain the most...lol

Read this in a Carino article.

Those days are long gone. Especially at Rutgers, where many of the fans are new and perhaps lacking the perspective of long-timers who suffered through decades of drought – or converted football fans who don’t quite grasp the ebbs and flows of a 31-game marathon.

“No one is winning every game,” Pikiell said. “At the end of the year, they’ll tell you if you’re good enough (for the NCAA Tournament). They don’t pick the postseason (brackets) after every game. At the end of the year it’s, ‘Here’s your resume; did you get the job or not?’”

Lol people still @ing me from days ago. Y’all are a bunch of weirdos getting all worked up that I thought the team could’ve done better than 7 points in a 12 minute span in the second half. It’s not that profound.

The key stats for the B1G Ten sixteen games is that Rutgers averaged 65 points and the opponents averaged 60 points.In the last five games starting with Michigan State, Rutgers has averaged 62 points and the opponents 65 points.The highest scoring game was 90 points against Minnesota and the most points allowed was Iowa with 93 points.There has been six games where Rutgers has won by four or more points,Grind out games were the most common and often decided in the last minutes of the game,Defense clearly has carried the team with four games remaining.
