I've called Rutgers horrid and dreadful in this thread.

 

We are tied 34 all at half

[KingPG21 6,587]

Horrible end to the first half. Yogi and TW are just being turnover machines at this point

[Trish 11,620]

Losing to the worst team in the B1G.

 

We have shown ZERO improvement

 

our defense is still terrible

 

no leadership

 

i think we all know what needs to be done... 

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

Yogi and TW are padding those TO stats

[HoosierRob 1,042]

Well, that was pathetic.

[Alford Bailey 12,393]

All gonna depend on whether our run comes early in the second half or late (see ND game).

Well it is tied, but yeah. We should just be glad they have no depth right now. We're on pace for 24 freaking turnovers...... against Rutgers. 

[Parakeet Jones 3,773]

Not having JBJ is no excuse for this.

[coonhounds 9,057]

Notice how we have the ball with 1 second left and Rutgers gets the last shot

[southsidehoosier 5,046]

We're tied???????!!!! I just checked the score. Glad I didn't waste any of my 300 hrs of cumulated PTO today.

[hoosiers55 69]

We are going through the motions, no energy or emption

[IUfan_Charlie 3,867]

See guys, we're so much better without Blackmon... 

[bmitch 332]

Yogi and Troy look like they've never played a B1G game

[FortWayneHoosier 6,197]

Just wait until we play an actual team in this conference

[HoosierCoop 3,930]

Let me guess...that's the best half of basketball Rutgers has played all year.

 

Sounds like a broken damn record.

So, who watched the Baylor v. UNC bowl game last night?

 

For those who didn't, Baylor rushed 84 times, passed 18, and punted 0. Those stats tell you most of what you need to know (it was incredible). And actually, I think the pass stat took some of the rushes because they were short tosses.

 

Each drive, Baylor would run just one of a few plays that involved running the ball, gaining 6 yards, and doing it again. And you just reached a point where you were yelling at UNC "You know what they're going to do! Just stop them!" but every single time they would break through and keep moving down the field. Right up until the final two minutes you just kept waiting for them to finally get what was happening.

 

That's how I've felt these last few minutes of this game. Rutgers is just walking over and laying it up. And you just want us to do something to stop it. But, it happens again. And you think, "there is no way we can let it happen this time at least" and it happens again.

 

So frustrating.

Good thing we have Tom Crean to make halftime adjustments and counter their run. 

 

 

Guarantee if we lose, Crean will blame it on not having Blackmon. He's probably glad Blackmon is out; gives him a built-in excuse. 

[KingPG21 6,587]

At least Max has looked good. Dude definitely proving me wrong so far this year

[Brass Cannon 24,866]

Sorta surprised the board hasn't crashed after that

[Dalton26 16,892]

Your 2015-16 Indiana Hoosiers ladies and gentleman. Those last few minutes summed up our season perfectly.
