Rinse and repeat from last year’s game - it feel even and even Rutgers with an edge but we are down big bc Oregon is lights out swishes from 3. Dana Altman’s strategy. 1 giant balding 30 year old center, and bunch of sharp shooters. $$$

Don't be surprised if Bittle is a first-rounder.

Meh the edge is really only because we got to the line alot in the first 10 minutes plus Bittle sat most of half and they actually extended the lead to 8

Pikes strategy is to match their 30 year old with our own 30 year old

How do you play them ever and losing by 7?
We have more offensive rebounds, more steals, fewer turnovers, fewer fouls, more points inside the arc and more points from the foul line.

We’re getting as many good looks from three as they have but they’ve made more, so that’s why we’re down 7.

Playing them even (or outplaying them) in the ways I’ve mentioned.

They were 15-27 fg...dominant on offense

You’re losing plain and simple! 8 points down at the half. That is not even!
