Rutgers 65
Indiana 62
They are coming off a big home win against UNC and are due a letdown game in my opinion.

I really hope I am wrong here and get killed for my prediction………..
I usually don’t have high conviction on individual games. I have a strong feeling Indiana beats us bad.
Rutgers kyrptonite is teams putting strong on ball pressure on our guards. That is exactly what IU did to UNC and took them completely out of their offensive flow. If they can do it to UNC guards it can be done to RU guards. Making matters worse will be the revenge factor for what Ron did on their court
I expect Paul to play, our only chance is to play GREAT defense and make a much higher percent of 3s and 1s than normal.

IU has been putting up a lot of points. Granted a lot of it has been against weak competition, they still put 81 and 77 on Xavier and UNC, respectively. How much will they score on us? We need to keep them at least below 65, which will take a huge defensive effort. Let’s see what Pike has up his sleeve. I suspect we’ll play with intensity and emotion but fall short again.
IU 70
RU 61

RU 61
I cant see IU overlooking us. We've been bitch slapping them so often they will have this game circled.
It’s impossible to predict without knowing IF Paul plays, and if so how rusty he is. IU is substantially better than last year and without a full-strength Mulcahy and McConnell RU clearly is not better. (Even with those two 100% healthy and rust-free, RU may not be better Than last year). We can only expect so much RAC magic.
Rutgers 63-61
Rutgers only chance for winning is a low scoring game similar to Iowa last season.The Rutgers fan base needs to be very loud every time Indiana is on offense.This would be a great win without Mulcahy playing.

Not feeling it, but need the RAC magic. I'll go RU by 2 (just because I'm a die-hard).
Oh man, didn’t realize this was the official prediction thread, screwed up and put mine in the unofficial thread. Can I still win the prize?
