Wishful thinking? Yes.

What are the wishful thoughts?
Threes fall and with 4 seconds on the clock, we get the call.

I think it's a winnable game and Maryland is vulnerable on the road however the last few weeks I've seen from this team doesn't make me confident. Players are getting better but as a team we have not got better...huge concern

Maryland is really top heavy.

Mathis on Cowan. Let Mathis decide who the best defender on Saturday is from Baltimore.

Use depth and put Morsell and Smith on the line when possible.

Hopefully we see more drives from Harper Jr. I know it's in his skill set, and I am not sure why he is not being used in the post, or driving more.

I am hoping from another consistent game from McConnell. Start the offense as early as you grab a rebound. Look for numbers, and make your decision.

Rutgers 69 points per game average will probably drop dramatically in 2019 against B1G opponents.

Maryland 72 Rutgers 63

We need to win one of these games at home. Could be a nailbiter.

Don't we have a winning record on Court Club Auction days? I believe Pikes first year didn't we get an upset?

We will be underdogs for sure, but this is a game we are definitely capable of winning.

For us to win it’s all about shots falling for us, defending the three, and fouling the right guys at the right time.

I say enough of that happens to keep us in it til the end, and we get the win, 71-67.

Will be a tough game today. Still will be loud. RU must fight, and be gritty. RU 67 Other 66.RRRR. Rutgers wins if the best player from Maryland is on RU! Let’s go Mathis!

I think we pull off an upset in front of a sold out raucous crowd.
Boy did we shoot the pooch. IMO, worst game of the year so far. Once Eugene picked up his second foul and went out when we were up 13-7 we just collapsed.
