Lot of meaningful March basketball to be played for Rutgers

We need to make sure we beat PSU at home. We won’t beat Iowa on the road and @Ind will be tough also. 14-16 (7-13) with a B1G tourney first round bye and a win in round 2. 2-3 to finish the season 15-17 with 8 total B1G wins. This season will definitely be looked at as one we can build on for 2019-2020.

One at a time please. I sure hope we can get a lucky break at the end of the Iowa game that allows us to win this time.

I would have agreed with the "no chance at Iowa" thing a month ago but they really haven't been playing great ball lately.

Indiana and Northwestern both really should have won there, and Maryland did win there (and if you know anything about Maryland, they do NOT beat ranked teams on the road under Turgeon).

It's still our least likely win of the three remaining, but it's on the table.
 
I think we need one more to clinch not being in the last four at the tournament. None will be easy but Penn State at home will be best shot. The others are not likely but possible. Including Iowa.

its almost as if coaches have figured out how to slow Iowa down and sort of neutralize their potent scoring. Unfortunately they have a knack for finding ways to win and when you have a Bohannon he can go off at anytime but really the others on the team don't really scare me.

The problem with playing Iowa is that on their worse day the team probably will score more than 70 points.
