Because it's PC...and shows how bright you are when we lose - and we lose often.
Regardless, if Corey were playing I'd pick Rutgers...and even without him, I'm seeing a real benefit in developing a 2nd option on the team for scoring / rebounding.
RU 72
Minny 69
and if this not the result in Minny, then it WILL be result when Corey comes back / GOES OFF against the rodents.

[QUOTE p"Spare130, post: 1627610, member: 5092"]Is there a reason why everybody is so confident that Minnesota will win easily? I would lean towards picking them but why the wide margins?[/QUOTE]
- road game
- we're a just not a good team and it's got to be trying on these kids now, too, which doesn't make it easier
- we're (still) missing the only true "floor general" we've had since Damon Santiago and the best since Eddie himself, so...when a BAD team loses its leading scored who just happens to be its floor general as well, picking us to lose, and by the spread (as I said would be the case, each of the 4 games the kid doesn't play, the day he was suspended)....
...is pretty simple IMHO.

This is Minnesota. They are a lot like us. Little Richard is similar to Eddie.
I was wrong last time. They cover tonight. Take it to the bank!
Because Minnesota has played most schools close except for maybe 3-4 blowouts. They are coming off a win over Maryland with a week to rest and they are probably going to focus on this game rather than sleepwalk through like most RU opponents

ALMOST! My bookie recently shut down my account after 2 winning years. Now I have to use an online site. I think I took Minnesota -12. Now I won't be able to watch since I can't root against RU
78-73 Minnesota
I think it will be a fairly close game, but just can't see the streak ending on the road.

Minnesota 75 - Rutgers 60
- Nate Mason will have a strong game without Sanders defending him
- Joey King will have a field day from range (shoots .408 - likely will shoot better than .500 tonight)
- Murphy, Konate, and Buggs will have good games underneath because we don't have the bodies to foul them

Minnesota is not a great team, but 7 out of their last 8 losses have been by 8 points or less, followed by a win over Maryland. Seems like they are just missing one or two key pieces to be a real threat.
