Rutgers no shows in damaging blowout 72-51 loss to Nebraska

With a chance to unofficially clinch the program’s first NCAA Tournament bid in 30 years, Rutgers basketball gave new meaning to what a no show performance entailed. It was the worst played game of the Steve Pikiell era and it came when the team was on the cusp of accomplishing something great. The lack of passion and effort that Rutgers played with raised serious concern for how this team will perform the rest of the season.

After Nebraska led 10-9 with just under four minutes into the game, Lat Mayen hit consecutive three-pointers and it all went downhill from there.
