Watching BTN earlier, they said RU has risen 80 points, more than any other team in the country. Crispin also said PSU and Indy will both beat RU because they're the 'hottest teams in the conference". Maybe... but didn't RU beat Iowa by 14 on the road?? Not too shabby.
 
He also thinks Indiana could make the NCAA if they win their last two and lose in the first round of the B1G tourney. He lost credit to me with that statement lol.

Since we beat them, PSU has been playing really well. Knocked of Michigan and Maryland, took Purdue to OT, and lost by 4 @OSU and @Wisconsin.

Indiana's last 4 have been strong, too... 2 pt loss to Purdue, OT loss @Iowa, 2OT win vs Wisconsin, then win vs MSU.

Would love to be the cooler for both hot streaks.

It comes down to matchups. Does Rutgers have advantages they can exploit over PSU and IU? I like Rutgers size against PSU. Plus the play of the guards and wing is at another level compared to the first time Rutgers played PSU. I think the key to beating IU is playing physical and come at them in waves.
 
All three teams are clearly playing their best BB this season. I expect some real dog fights and think that all 3 will be taking teams out in the BIG tourney.
 
PSU is in our rear view mirror and will stay there.
 
Harper's length seemed to affect Langford in round one. We will see about round two.
