Who do you prefer we play Wed Night 2/28 at MSG (Opening Round - Big 10 Tourney)

[BigEastPhil]

In all likelihood, the 4 teams playing on Wed 2/28 will be RU; Iowa; Minnesota and Illinois - all whom have 3 wins.

Which school do you hope we play on Wed Night at MSG?

I would prefer Iowa as I think we matchup well against them.

Then probably Minnesota as they look like they have given up on the season.

Also Wisconsin has 5 wins so I guess it's conceivable that if they lose out and 1 of the squads above wins out - it could be Wisconsin playing on Wed Night as well.

Guess we'll know a week from now....

Iowa, Minny, Illinois for sure...

 

[BigEastPhil]

If season ended tonight, we'd play Illinois and winner faces Michigan on Thursday

 

[Mr Magoo]

we can win probably one game at best.

Illinois is a bad matchup for us and we will have just played them. They clearly have more talent and they pressure our two best players, Baker and Sanders...

We played our best game of the year against Iowa, who also has more talent and they will be out for revenge.

Wisconsin is awful but probably too smart for us to beat them a second time.

I’ll take my chances in a rematch against Little Ricky’s depleted team that may be playing out the string.

 

[rutger80]

My preferences are Iowa and Minnesota.
Iowa still hasn't figured out how to play defense and Minnesota is shorthanded and treading down.

 

[dollarbill]

My preference is the 5:30 pm game and staying out of the basement at the same time. $$$$

 

[Hope4RU]

Illinois or Iowa.

[bac2therac]

Minnesota would be the best option

 

[TobyTyler1]

MSG is selling beer, correct?

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Honestly it doesn't matter who we play . What matters is which Rutgers team shows up.

 

[knight82]

No matter who we play, I could see a similar situation to last year. We play our hearts out and beat whoever. Then the next day, when we play a good team, we have nothing left in the tank and get blown out

 

[RUJMM78]

Rutgers loses in any talent comparison but playing at MSG they have a realistic chance in the first round.Against Michigan in the second round a mismatch .

Barring a miracle the season ends no later than a week from Thursday, no question. But it’s worth pointing out that Michigan was one of the few road games where we didn’t get throttled.

You are spot on with that!

 

[RUsojo]

Although I know we have no shot, every year at conference tournament time, I have a vision of Corey going full Kemba.

 

[ScarletDave]

Minnesota, then Iowa. Illinois scares me, their players are a bad matchup for the kind of style that wins us the games we do.

 

[RUChoppin]

Minnesota would definitely be my choice. They are in freefall without Lynch.

Coffey is out for the year too I believe.

 

[TDIrish27]

Minnesota-----no doubt about it

 

[RURM85]

Iowa

Yup, MSG will sell beer if anyone shows up Wednesday night.

 

[xkiesterx]

Iowa or Minnesota. Looking forward to it.

Feb. 28th preference: Whichever team we can / do actually BEAT!

MO

Minnesota beat Iowa to move to 4-13.

even with a loss to Illinois, RU can finish 13th if Iowa loses to Northwestern in its final game. If RU beats Illinois, RU would finish 12th (assuming Illinois loses tomorrow). RU will only finish 14th if Iowa beats Northwestern and RU loses to Illinois.
