THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-LAFAYETTE PREDICTION THREAD

We ended up dominating UMass in the dreaded Black Friday matinee game instead of our usual trap game, so I expect to do the same and take care of business on Sunday.

Rutgers 73
Lafayette 59
 
Rutgers 74
Lafayette 61

A-5345 or 5346 (not sure if I am bringing 3 or 4)

snoozer...we don't put them away, but the game is never really in doubt
 
I think Lafayette tries to use the same formula most low majors have used against us, Chuck up 3's and foul the heck out of us. I think this will keep Lafayette within striking distance of us all game. I'll go with 77-73 RU.

This is an important game in the sense I want to see the team isn't reading its press clippings anymore and is focused on the task at hand.
 
Lafayette will have their moments but we have too many weapons for them to defend and our defense will be a big test for them. I do think the fact that we’re the hunted negates our home court advantage in a game like this.

Hate to say it:
Lafayette 75
RU 70

However i will make another prediction. IF we win, we will win against Caldwell, Penn State and Nebraska.
 
RU 72
LU 71

Will RU be willing to constantly defend the 3?

If not, this can be a demoralizing loss.

If so, they can win by a dozen or so.

I'll go with a very close win with help from the crowd
 
We hold it out at 6 to 8 the whole game, we can’t pull away because Lafayette answers with a big 3 or bucket every time we try to, in the end they start fouling and we win it by 11-13
 
Current line is Rutgers -15 per Vegas Insider
When the deficit dropped from 32 points to 18, I was thinking about how somebody out there may have been celebrating a little too soon, lol.
