THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-NEW JERSEY INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY PREDICTION THREAD

RUTGERS 66 New Jersey Institute of Technology 54 in front of 3,019 at the RAC
A double digit win, but Pikiell and staff needs to make sure they don't come out emotionally flat. These games are vitally important if we're going to steal some extra B1G games and maybe go to the CBI.

Watching UF lose at home to Loyola Chicago, who was playing with a backup PG and Illinois barely beating Austin Peay makes me realize how tough this game will be after FSU and two tough conference games. I think RU pulls out a close one 70-65.
 
Good game to get off to a good start then rest GEO, Freeman, Mike & Corey.via longer rotations
Omoruyi will be high scorer & Thiam, Sa, Doorson get more playing time

Pike will have the guys ready

I would be very surprised if the team doesn't come out and play good ball. Many are concerned about the abundance of games played, but games like these are where you can run 8 players and not get run off the court.

There are big ten games, and there are OOC games. Pikiell knows where he has to get the wins.

I disagree...it will be pretty likely this team comes out flat....everyone can say they wont, Pike can tell them they have to bounce back,. the players know it but they do it anyway. I am very concerned about these three games and a potential for a WTF loss before SHU. Lots of games , tired legs and we are a terrible offensive team. Keeping these kind of teams close in games can be dangerous and I am worried about all 3 of these teams being able to leap up and beat us.

Agree in full. I wouldn't be surprised if we fell behind by 8-10 points at some point in the first half and have to mount a furious comeback

I'll go:

I am concerned with a letdown after three grueling losses to top 15 teams. However, Pike seems to have the ability to motivate and avoid letdowns.

A shame that it won't be on local cable TV.
Dude, just pay the $10/mo. bot BTN Plus so you can see these games on your laptop (or connect your laptop to your TV). Not only are the men's and women's bball games all available, but wrestling, men's and women's soccer, and other events. It is totally worth it.
 
I was wondering why it was taking them so long to pull away.
