Rutgers vs Illinois / Game Thread

[RUJMM78]

McConnell should be taking the shots rather than Baker or Eugene.

 

[bac2therac]

get McConnell the ball please

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Off Giorgio...no doubt

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

that REF was RIGHT THERE.. wht was he looking at?

he should turn in his whistle.. obvious bias

 

[Plum Street]

We get the call

 

[sct1111]

Amazing there is no one on this team that can stop a slightly above average freshman.

He's ballin give him credit.

 

[RUsince52]

Can't get caught in a double team when you can dribble.

 

[richthedentist]

Georgie...you can only tip your hat

We aren’t even playing a big man against him just stupid coaching

 

[RAC’emUp]

Double!!!

 

[koleszar]

O harper come on man a wide open look.

 

[Jim_from_RU]

Game over.

 

[bac2therac]

damn Harper..in and out...flashes of Douby vs Cuse

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

He's ballin give him credit.

Credit once he gets the ball but we can’t stop him from getting it in the post.

 

[tfio]

Lol **** that

 

[PatrickRU92]

half way down comes out and Eugene gets a ******** call

 

[Plum Street]

We are going to need to hit a big 3 .
Harper almost had it

 

[RU848789]

11-2 run for Ill

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

HTH was that a foul by EO?

 

[bac2therac]

shots just didnt fall when they needed to at the end.

 

[sct1111]

That foul was BS both going for the ball.

 

[RUsince52]

Too bad. Not enough arc.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

shots just didnt fall when they needed to at the end.

No problem with today except for the post defense.

 

[RU848789]

13-21 vs. 17-22 at the FT line. There's your difference right there.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

Can't believe we cannot adjust and let a freshman back down and get 2 on every possession for 35 points. How?!?!

 

[Plum Street]

Too bad. Not enough arc.

Like in the movie major league : “too high”

 

[bac2therac]

Caleb is 8-9...have to get him the ball

 

[SBP]

Illini hit clutch shots. We miss. Thats the difference. Geo is also digressing IMHO. Too much dribble, especially into track. Turnover machine

 

[RUsince52]

ILL making the FTs. Good job by them.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

That is kind of mind-boggling.

Very true - if we lose that's where we lost it.

Key call in overtime after McConnel hits foul line jumper. The Illinois guy is standing on the court when he passes ball in bounds and they go down and hit a 3 pointer

 

[Plum Street]

Fell apart in overtime . Up 4 to down 5

 

[PatrickRU92]

and we're done. dammit.

 

[soundcrib]

Our guards cannot miss as many FTs as we do. That’s what did us in.

 

[RU848789]

Mathis needed to dish that to EO for the easy dunk...

 

[Jim_from_RU]

This is a killer.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

Very true - if we lose that's where we lost it.

FT's

 

[bac2therac]

oh well.

Illinois deserves this one...they made the plays. Nothing we did wrong, They stepped up. Congrats to them
