THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-NEBRASKA PREDICTION THREAD

I predict I will be one of very few RU fans present at Pinnacle Bank Arena to witness RU 72, Nebraska 70 [banana][cheers]
 
I'm very hopeful that some what I saw against Illinois (especially in the first half) carries over and we don't embarrass ourselves.

Also hopeful we don't revert back to the "deer in the headlights" road games we have played most of the season.

I predict somewhere in the middle.

Nebraska 82
Rutgers 68
 
fresh legs after 3OT's for the guards is going to be extremely difficult. Nebraska should be ready to go after winning the first matchup comfortably at the RAC. A sign of life for the program would be to stay within double digits today....sad as it may seem, the bar has been lowered to that point...without depth, it's a tough assignment for 40 minutes on the road.....RU has allowed a LOT of 40+ point halves in games, this would be a good time to not allow that to happen, if you are expecting a decent game. I can see one solid half, but after 30 minutes, Huskers should pull away.....If Sanders has another back to back 20 point 10 assist type of effort, this could be very entertaining, but he needs to be aggressive early and get to the FT line to slow the pace down for RU in the 1st half.

Nebraska 82 RU 67....
