Rutgers vs Purdue / Game Thread

[leftoright]

RU playing well. Nation's attention is well deserved.

 

[SBP]

Are there actually people who like those Dr. Pepper commercials with the pervy little Prince wannabee dude?

That’s Justin Guarini who came in second on the very first American Idol..

We played pretty well to be down 9 at the half. Kudos to Purdue. They played even better.

When Rutgers is playing a opponent with a high powered offense ,they can't have lulls in scoring .The last two minutes Purdue went from a one point lead to nine points at half time.Rutgers defense not up to par with Ivey driving to the basket and dunking the ball or getting fouled.A NBA player for sure.

 

[leftoright]

Half Chinese half Canadian

It's the Canadian part I don't trust.

Going to have to play our best defense of the year in the second half. Rarely does this team see 45 put up against them. Hope it has them angry and hungry.

Wed be up if cliff didnt miss 2 ft's miss 3 dunks and tech foul

Cliff score both FT after his first missed dunk…..can have both points and FTs

 

[leftoright]

Two Amore's dunks and one less "two finger salute", and we're tied.

Halftime observations:

- Purdue has done a good job bottling up the paint when Paul has the ball. Has mostly neutralized him

- DNP from Hyatt - Mag got ALL of the backup forward minutes

- Geo needs to start hitting some shots. His mid range step back is off (0-3 so far)

- Does Trevion Williams EVER miss a shot?

This game is being played at a high level. 9 pt lead can easily be made up. Win the second half and we win the game

Rutgers held them over 6 minutes without a fg at one point

 

[Scangg]

Limit the 3's and we can do this

Agree, but we win only with physical shut down defense.

That has to be a wLk

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Memo was to give Ivey every foul call apparently

 

[Scangg]

Caleb noooo

 

[richthedentist]

Why is Harper guarding Ivey

 

[bac2therac]

Giving them 3 tries will not cut it

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Caleb may have met his match.

 

[Scangg]

Why is Harper guarding Ivey

Bc it was an offensive rebound

 

[greenknight]

Why us cliff sticking with ever 16ft from hoop

 

[tfio]

Man all his foul shots are off the money but still all falling

 

[koleszar]

Bad time for Hyatt but O well.

 

[RU848789]

Ivey just killing us today

 

[bac2therac]

Cannot have Hyatt shooting

Purdue going in for kill

 

[RutgersNo1]

Hyatt is useless

 

[bac2therac]

Not rebounding

Just simply being outplayed

 

[JudgeSmails56]

Game over. Fire pike

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

That was a tie-up ref good grief

 

[RU848789]

We're in serious trouble now...

 

[greenknight]

Cliff stay the **** under the boards

 

[TheKidFromRahway]

Hyatt can’t play D and is a walking turnover. This one is curtains

 

[richthedentist]

Get Hyatt the eff out gave Stevanovic 2 wide open 3 pointer

 

[bac2therac]

It was 36-35 by the way

 

[MLBash93]

Ball game.

Just hope to stay within 10 for the optics

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Worst possible start to half. I’ll hold out hope but really just please keep it respectable.
