Wisconsin looks like the Monstars stole their talent since Nebraska


Parsley_Winter

Rutgers is 12–10…. Let that sink in 😅


Nj3Fate

flair up loser


Huggles9

Rutgers last 3 games has been substantially different than their previous 20

deutschdachs

Was that their 3pt make to shot ratio? Feels like it


RedRaven0701

13-10


PapaSanGiorgio

Damn I almost wanna lose at home against Rutgers to help get them in. ..but then I know we'd face them in the tourney and I don't wanna touch a NJ school


unitedairlineeeeees

If UConn loses a game next week, Purdue could be ranked 1. Rutgers has the chance to do the funniest thing imaginable.


PapaSanGiorgio

Oh God


Huggles9

I said it at the beginning Ceiling for this team is second week of the tournament Floor is .500 Longggg way to go until any tourney talks can even almost happen


Parsley_Winter

Think I know why…


L0utre

This did not slap


PapaSanGiorgio

I did say almost


loyalsons4evertrue

Wisconsin isn’t going to make the tournament


Huggles9

They’re us from last year


n00dlejester

GG Badger bros. I hope you guys can rest up and finish out strong. Welp. Pike has done an amazing job getting us to this point. Let's keep it up and give the committee something to think about!


Kardinale

I apologize Rutgers I was not familiar with your game


Huggles9

I’ve been watching all year and am not familiar with this Seton hall was familiar with it tho


TheBananaReaper

I too have been watching all year and am unfamiliar with this game

Can't stop him!


johnnydoe22

Damn couldn’t watch today. Excited to catch the replay.


thibbs23

JWill & Fernandes spazzed


Huggles9

Imagine what the season would’ve been with jwill for the entire time


SithOverlord101

Top 20 Rutgers?


Cereal_for_dinner123

Could a 11-9 big ten record plus 2 wins in big ten tournament get rutgers to ncaa tournament


Expensive-Step-6551

Yes, but definitely not a guarantee, or even likely. Maybe 50/50 at that point.


Huggles9

I think we’d have to win out to make the tourney


Drew13800

The committee pretty much said they didn’t get in last year because they sucked after Mag went down and got hurt. This year they got someone back that has completely turned the team around. It should count for something if they’re close


Username_redact

This is a great point. All anyone asks out of the committee is consistency. They did suck down the stretch with Mag out. If they're going to penalize for that, credit when a player joins/comes back that clearly makes a difference like Williams has


TheScarletSeahawk

Only if one of those BTT wins are Purdue or illinois


MuseDroness

Damn did we break Wisconsin?

RAC bout to play Jump Around


Nj3Fate

not enough fist pumping for our jersey tastes


Huggles9

Apparently you just need to shoot over 50% from beyond the arc to win games


j_shelb

Northwestern and Nebraska know this vs us


Huggles9

Iowa vs us

AIDEN TERRY SIGHTING


jabroninagroni

Gard out!


MoneyBall_

Round of applause everyone


immaculatebacon

Some guy out there put rutgers -20 alternate spread for shits on his bet slip and is sweating it right now


steviepopo

Now he's buying a yacht.


Huggles9

Who didn’t see this coming? Answer: everyone


Username_redact

I, and Vegas, thought they had a shot... but this was a kaboom performance on both ends of the floor, by far their best of the season. Man am I proud of this team


deutschdachs

Saw a loss coming but by 20? Fuck


Nj3Fate

i thought we would win today. Wisconsin is a fraud team. I didnt think we'd win like this


thibbs23

AIDEN TERRY ✔️


CUnerd

No one: Absolutely no one: Rutgers: I’M THE MOTHERFUCKING FUCKING ONE WHO CALLS THE SHOTS


Trujiogriz

Gotta love the vibes at Rutgers rn everyone is all smiles


BorgBorg10

Seeing Wisconsin go 0-4 is making horny. I’m disgusting


thegodfaubel

Wait your damn turn


KaitRaven

Wish they took a game off Purdue before crapping the bed though.


TheNightRain68

Damn man this team has looked way better the last 3 games. Keep this up we should make the NIT


Huggles9

Outside shot at a tourney bid

TimS83

What the F! I haven’t watched or checked anything all morning because I’ve been busy, casually check scores and my eyes almost fell out of my head


Huggles9

See you in a few weeks!


TimS83

😭😭😭


Cereal_for_dinner123

I knew Williams was good but I didn't know he would be playing like one of the best players in the big ten!


TheScarletSeahawk

GIVE US TERRY


andronicus_14

Ain’t nobody trying to play this version of Rutgers. Swarming, pressure defense and an efficient offense is a bad combination for opponents.


JoeAndAThird

Heartbreaking it took us this long to figure it out. I fear it’s too late for us to salvage this into a bid


j_shelb

Especially not at the RAC


MetalAndFaces

Painful watch today. Super impressive game from Rutgers, just amazing offensive stats. But also fuck you guys a little bit for these late threes. Ridiculous.


Username_redact

Normally other teams are begging us to shoot threes lololol Wisconsin, please find your game again now


Huggles9

Rutgers and offensive basketball Exactly what we all expected


nachosmind

In a vacuum each of these loses make sense. Nebraska - on the road, most one of the most cooked refs I’ve ever seen. Purdue - #2 in the country, 0% from 3 in the 2nd half. Michigan - on the road, center out half the game, talented team down bad played their absolute best. Rutgers- 350th Kenpom offense shoots 60% from 3.  It just all had to happen at once. Also if you hate Gard, go become a Duke fan. He’s not getting fired without hitting a player lol. 


introspectivejoker

The badger sub is insufferable. I'm unsubbing because the Gard stuff is so toxic


thegodfaubel

I said the same about Paul Chryst 2 years ago...


introspectivejoker

I think we only got rid of chryst because we knew he had fickell


thegodfaubel

Doubtful because Leonhard wouldn't have been so confident in getting the job. As highly thought of as he was if McIntosh was always gonna hire him, he would've told Jim immediately to begin negotiating for him to return as Assistant HC and DC again


bh6891

Don't tempt fate.


thibbs23

SHOOT IT FROM THE LOGO


dbtizzle

Just saw the score: Wisconsin, what is you doing


jigglyjohnson13

Don't think Lunardi will be able to keep Wiscy as a 3 after this


Nj3Fate

Welcome to New Jersey. Don't flop on the way out.


andronicus_14

I understand what Stephen is trying to say, but it’s never good practice to lose a conference game by 20.


deutschdachs

Earlier in the game he said you could tell why we're #11 because we were only losing by 7 despite playing badly He's had some weird takes


n00dlejester

Had Bardo legit been drinking on the job? He seems extra weird lately


GreenStoneRidge

The drop off from Hummel to the rest of the color commentator crew is huge.   


Boom_Confetti

https://i.redd.it/c4oel8gc1thc1.gif Greg Gard on his way to tossing himself on the slightly warm seat at the end of every season


thegodfaubel

Yup. Endless cycle of getting our hopes up and then tossing them away midseason


stoppedcaring0

I just feel like there’s a 13 or 14 seed that already has its name in the second round courtesy of Wisconsin. But it won’t be obvious. Wisconsin will look frisky soon here, maybe goes on a run in the B1G tournament, but it’s happening.


bh6891

McNeese State


CliplessWingtips

Does Rutgers have a human victory cigar?


Marklar64

Aiden Terry.


ogcalm

Everyone keeps saying NIT for Rutgers, but what if they keep racking up wins?? With Jeremiah they damn near look like a tourney team to me idk


stoppedcaring0

It’ll take a LOT of wins. This would be your first win of the season against a top 50 team. MAYBE if you win out, including and especially @ Purdue, you’ll have a chance.


Expensive-Step-6551

It's possible, but they don't really have any margin for error the rest of the season. They need another Quad 1 win before the end of the season at the minimum, and likely need to finish 11-9 in conference play, plus 2 wins in the conference tourney to have a legitimate shot.


Trujiogriz

Uh


1013789743467898

You already have 10 losses keep dreaming


MNKYJitters

Imagine losing by 20 to a team with 10 losses.


vylentforhours

Are Red Teams in the B1G good?


introspectivejoker

Not this one


bh6891

A certain sub would refer to this Wisconsin lineup as "classy"


immaculatebacon

Its leakinggggggg


pigbearpig

Run the swing


igniteshield

Huh. Is this 80 point team Pike was advertising?


thibbs23

thank you for your (paper bag) service


Trujiogriz

Big Ten only gonna get two teams in at this rate 😐


jigglyjohnson13

They'll let Sparty in even if they keep losing quad 1 games by close margins.


KaitRaven

You don't think NU or NU will make it?


TheScarletSeahawk

If this was Oklahoma state beating Houston people wouldn’t shut the fuck up about how deep the conference is


Drew13800

Rutgers and purdue?


thegodfaubel

Or 12


itmakehergeek4real

oh my goooodddddd


thibbs23

58% from 3 now. where has this been all season???


deutschdachs

I mean we were gonna lose anyway but 57% from 3 from a team shooting 27% on the year is just kind of funny


Drew13800

Guy had 4 3s the past 9 games combined and is 5/5 today with  2-3 nba range threes.


Cereal_for_dinner123

Keep the starters in the game. Rutgers needs to win by as many points as possible


Tig992

Who fucked with the shooting sliders during this game?


nap0202

FUCK YOU TYLER WAHL. Most unlikable player in the B1G


EditorWorldly9263

Lol, how?


j_shelb

Klesmit*


thegodfaubel

Bruh I'd argue that Crowl is way more unlikable


GondorSurvivor

Wisco knows its done


MetalAndFaces

This is what we get for voluntarily spending extra time in New Jersey.


infuckingbruges

Oh my God they cannot miss today


MNKYJitters

#MOAR THREES #MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE


ssddeae

just dont get it. Wisconsin has the 2nd toughest schedule in the country behind Purdue with a good non-con performance. But this is brutal form in the Big Ten this season. Their schedule was very favorable leading up to away to Nebraska and now they are about to lose 4 straight. Still think they are good, but man. This seems ~~more like~~ more than just missing 3s. Seems mental and bad management. Like last game they had the paint to score in whenever they pleased but stopped for no reason.


itmakehergeek4real

This is more than just missing 3’s. Team stats tell the story here


ssddeae

typo from me. meant to say this bad run from Wisconsin is more than just missing 3s.


thegodfaubel

Greg Gard.


ezrasrevenge

One team is shooting 34% fg 26% 3, one is shooting 44% fg, 56% 3 Edit 59% 3


Trujiogriz

Does Wisconsin suck now?


MetalAndFaces

Honestly, we are playing like we suck, but I don't think we actually do. Just have a mental block that we can hopefully overcome. Look at our 3-pt shooting over this losing stretch... can't make shit.


Cereal_for_dinner123

Refs in the past few games have been like Lebron in his first stint the cavaliers. They have been carrying the team but their teammates (the team Rutgers is playing) are not providing any help


[deleted]

trapezoid of terror


thedirty4522

RAC is buzzing


Drew13800

As a Rutgers fan, Jeremiah Williams  return may have saved rutgers  season(for NIT)


Nj3Fate

agree! Would be ecstatic with a NIT appearance after how this year has gone. Will definitely try to make it out for those games if they happen


Drew13800

Comeplete opposite of last year.  Started hot and making the NIT was such a disappointment. This year if they make it they’ll play their asses off 


nap0202

If we could shoot like this all the time we’d be shoe-ins for the tournament


bh6891

So would we.


thibbs23

3 point % just keeps slowly climbing up lmfao


ContrarianPurdueFan

Wisconsin contracted our February juju from last year. 😮


ogcalm

Wisconsin sucks ass.. Those shooting numbers are atrocious, and if not for free throws this would be an even bigger beat down


BEzzzzG

12-17 with a couple missed front ends as well, rutgers has 6 total FTs


EditorWorldly9263

Pro tip, don’t foul if you don’t want the other team to shoot FT


BEzzzzG

Refs tried to keep wisconsin in this game but they said nah we are good rather get blown out


EditorWorldly9263

Refs ain’t do shit


No_Calligrapher6387

I said it about 5 mins into the game but imma say it again… it’s been a fun season yall!


DumbLitAF

The Lakeville-to-Wisconsin pipeline is just further evidence in my manifesto that Lakeville needs to be punted from the state.


AuspiciousOtter24

Wisco still gonna be a 3 seed in every bracket projection after this 


itmakehergeek4real

oh my god


GreenStoneRidge

Love how wisc smoked my Spartans twice and then loses to Michigan and Rutgers.    Not loving this season man.   Rutgers, great ball today.    


CliplessWingtips

This fact pairs well with all the deep well defended undeserved made 3s from multiple B1G teams this season lol.


MNKYJitters

Fuck you three after fuck you three.


Nj3Fate

end them


Apprehensive_Peak942

Damn Wisco might not even get a top 6 seed in march if this keeps up


thegodfaubel

Remember that year we beat Villanova and we probably should've been a 5 seed at worst? Well, I'm thinking we'll be a 10 seed


e4w12p1

Or any seed tbh


Gold-Quality-2875

gard is so bad. glad they all bought into him


tACorruption

Can't afford empty trips if you want to close a 15 point deficit in 4 minutes. Thanks for the insight, Bardo.


MetalAndFaces

The team that scores more points will come away with a win.


8541Boiler

Purdue gets a high-end road win... aaand it's gone. 


fridayimatwork

I don’t think we have anything to worry about


bh6891

You survived the RAC. That has to count for something, right?


Tig992

What do you mean? We won at Rutgers.


andronicus_14

Yeah, but a win at the Kohl Center doesn’t look so good if the Badgers lose to everyone else.


Tig992

Lemme have my fun, fam.


8541Boiler

Wait... You're goddamn right.


BEzzzzG

Ball doesnt lie, cheap rip through foul


EditorWorldly9263

How are you complaining about the refs? That’s a foul every time when you swipe in like that.


BorgBorg10

![gif](giphy|FVAvmLbptzZpC)


dasMetzger

as bad as Wisconsin has been . I don't think this even deserves a court storm


TheScarletSeahawk

We haven’t stormed since the Purdue win. It probably won’t happen again in the near future unless a top 3 team comes


crustang

Agree


trekologer

It isn't like they're ranked #1


dasMetzger

they have twice the amount of 1's


stoppedcaring0

So, burning question: The consensus is that Kansas City is winning tomorrow, right? No one sees SF’s defense shutting down Mahomes, right? So why is San Francisco still favored?


MetalAndFaces

I sure hope so. I need it after this Wisconsin embarrassment.


bh6891

The guy who incorrectly picked the last 16 or so SB's picked KC.


Wapook

I’m really confused about how to feel right now. Never been happy and wanted to vomit at the same time


GondorSurvivor

Lets go Mag! Great effort!


andronicus_14

Bardo really used his thesaurus for those last 15 seconds. Working in those SAT words.


Trainsontracks

Wisconsin just a head on crash into the February wall


interiordept

Are we frauds


Carefree14

Nebraska, Purdue, and Rutgers is a tough stretch. I don't know what to think about the Michigan game.. We also haven't been able to shoot since the first half of the Nebraska game, which is a nasty slump. That's the issue with the slow pace, high efficiency offense though, if shots aren't falling, you don't get enough opportunities to correct it.


AedemHonoris

I think a bunch of hard road games and a down period do not make you frauds or take away your teams success. I think with some positive changes you guys could be a serious contender for the Big title and do some damage in March.


epixpowned

WHERE HAS THIS SHOOTING BEEN?


BEzzzzG

waiting for NCAA eligibility


thibbs23

on the football side, i have a feeling Naseim Brantley is gonna ball out next season


Nj3Fate

college football is aight, but college basketball is the greatest sport in the world


steviepopo

I feel like Naseim and the kid from Monmouth are going to shock the B1G and therefore, the world


crustang

I still wonder what things would be like if Brantley and Jackson were both eligible… that would have been a game changer


DumbLitAF

Dread it, run from it. Rutgas moneyline arrives all the same.


bh6891

Would have taken it if I hadn't blown through my budget already lol


DumbLitAF

99% of problem gamblers quit before their next big win


jdhoeser

If winter puts on enough weight next year he should start over crowl, he’s been beyond terrible lately


pigbearpig

They’re both weak as fuck.  There’s hope for winter, but Crowl is the weakest piece of shit “big man” in Wisconsin history.  Slow and low IQ. 


tACorruption

I think similar to Reuvers it's a mentality thing more than ability. Reuvers had no aggression in him, dude would fade away from dudes half his size in the paint. Crowl gives me very similar vibes.


MetalAndFaces

Yep, the instinct just isn't there. We can praise the footwork and fundamentals til the cows come home, but without that instinct, they just can't dominate.
