Can I get the same bonus with Rugers? 

Yes!

Cause it kinda reads like “boogers.”

Note to board:

Going forward, all posters who call our Tuesday opponent "Rutger" instead of "Rutgers" will receive one bonus point, redeemable at OldFart's company store.

Aloha has been pre-emptively awarded said bonus point.

Rutger after getting blitzed on Tuesday:

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe....."

Let's make sure we win then we can start talking TJD. Rutger has owned us and even just winning one after what they've done to us over the last handful of years feels weak.

Should be a fun one tomorrow, let’s see if we can get over this Rutgers bug

Who steps in for Mag?
 

It’s been mentioned previously, TJD and co have not beat Rutger. They have been CLOWNED by Rutger on the internet and court. I love beating Purdue, but they’re respectable enough to root for aside from playing IU. Rutger is public enemy #1 for me - I want them to lose by 20 every single game. It’s a discredit to the B1G to have them in the top of league 

Fixed that for you :) Rutgers is a crap school, of crap people in a crap state. Jim Delany should be tarred and feathered for cramming them in the league.

Lets punk these clowns, they have grown into one of my least favorite teams. 

Hell, they are my least favorite team in this league.  They've grown way too big for their britches.

Mawot Mag is a very active gadget forward on the lines of Jordan Geronimo.

Sad to read that his knee is messed up - that's a big loss for Rutgers.

Yes it is. He absolutely outplayed Race the 1st time. Was super active on their offensive board and was their primary double for Trayce.

Side note: how can you mistype “double” so it autocorrects to “day of blue”?

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 8,708]

We know they will make it ugly. Only way they can win because they can't shoot to save their lives. Gotta tough and disciplined.

**** ... I mistyped the correct "Rutger" and mistakenly put "Rutgers."

Game Day!

Defense travels.  Rutgers will definitely be bringing theirs.

Got to get the ball down the court and in play quickly.  To me, that is a huge key against this opponent.  Pass the ball sharply.  They do force more than their share of turnovers.

Our lack of defensive rebounding was the #1 issue in Piscataway.

Yup, gave up something like 20 offensive rebounds to Rutgers

stupidest stat I've ever heard. Pet peeve of mine. 

[NashvilleHoosier 3,719]

A slow start where we dig a big hole scares me on this one. 

[FloridaHoosierGirl 4,739]

Tonight's game scares me.  They can't have a let down after the big win on Saturday.  Rebound and make FTs please!  

[Banksyrules 4,868]

This team reminds me of the 82 team. In the beginning a mess but so much potential. Hopefully they piece it together in the right time. This Rutgers game will show if they "get it" and play hard.

Not sure if we've been out-schemed once against this modern rugger team, just plain out-worked. Hopefully tonight is the night someone (preferably the All American) says enough is enough. We don't need the fake tough, nose to nose stuff, just stick a body on someone and rebound and we'll get a win. They can't lean on Fat Ron's heroics anymore.
