THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-WISCONSIN PREDICTION THREAD
- Thread starter bac2therac
- Start date
We will lose this game, because IMO Wisconsin is probably the best team in the B1G. I've watched them play twice this year and I've watched Indiana play twice this year. Many prognosticators believe/ed that Indiana is the cream of the crop. I'm not so sure.
And even though we lose this game, we play with heart and toughness. This will be another learning experience for our kids and coaches and will only help us the rest of the way.

- Both B1G teams in 1st conf game
- Both 11-2
- Both have only road losses
- Both start a Nigel
Predicting a tie in regulation, 75-75.
PS: Wisky makes only 7 of 25 threes and 14 of 19 FTs to go with 20-35 from 2-pt range. Rutgers plays their best 2 halves of the year.

The predictions of Rutgers scoring in the 50-60 range is a sure prescription for losing.This team has to find a way to squeeze out another 5-10 points over expectations to have a realistic chance of winning 4-6 league games.

They are always good. They are always smart. They can alway shoot. They can always play defense and rebound.
They are at home. Did I forget anything?

I see it the same way. I don't think this game will be close. Wisconsin can really shoot the basketball.
Road game progression against 2017 NCAA teams
Miami ...fell behind ...came back ...down 5 st half ...no answer for second half run
Seton hall...9 point lead...tie game until the 5 minute mark ...no answer for final five minute
Prediction of another step ...we get this as a close game to the 2-3 minute mark on road and just not enough plays
Wisconsin 65 Rutgers 60
These three loses will help learn to win close games against better teams in February and march

One of the top 2 teams in the B10.....the other being Indiana.
Coach P makes the guys VERY aware of the quality of the opponent & readies them for the B10 schedule to come. We play tough for the 1st half.....make a run in the 2nd half...
and
Wisc just outlasts us>>>talent and depth win out BUT we play close enough that we serve notice we are NOT a pushover this year
-No NJ guys on Wisc
-Its typical midwest methodical Bball..... 5 starters are 2 Ohios 2 Wiskys 1 ILL

Hate it, but I just don't see this game being competitive. The line is Wisconsin -18 - think they cover.
