THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-NORTHWESTERN PREDICTION THREAD

RUTGERS 73 Northwestern 64

 

[Shell21]

This game scares me because they can space the court and shoot it from all 5 positions and if they get hot , it'll be a dog fight. I think we are much tougher than they are though and on a roll right now.

Rutgers 78-71

Yup- that's how last year's near nightmare at the RAC started out. Drive and kick to the corners all night long and of course they were on fire for a while.

 

[Scarlet Shack]

Win

 

[knight82]

This reminds me of the Penn State game. A team that is a lot better than their record shows. Ths one scares me. RU 80 Northwestern 79 triple OT

I'd like to be confident as a Northwestern fan, but they're going to have to play much better than they have the past couple of weeks to beat Rutgers as it looks as if you guys have some of your mojo back. The Cats did look slightly better against Penn State at State College, which has always been a house of horrors for Northwestern for some reason. I'd say Rutgers 75, NU 64.

[Salvi's Headband]

this is going to be a very tough game.

(repost for every game left on the schedule)

 

[Miggins]

Game worries me off the blowout of MSU. Could trigger over confidence especially now on the road against an “inferior” opponent. Think this game is won on rebounding. We should greatly out rebound them.

I will say we play moderately hard and get a 62 to 57 “ugly” win

On paper, gotta like RU by single digits.

Other mystical intangibles:
- RU has been relatively okay at NW's arena over the years
- NW looked like they were RU killers last year

Rutgers 72
Northwestern 70 (OT)

They try to do to us what we did to them at the RAC, but we find a way to force a bad shot at zeros.

Rutgers 71 Northwestern 66

NW 72

Their defense is not good and I believe we find our shooting touch today by Harper who will go big

 

[Degaz-RU]

I just hope Geo and the team aren’t distracted by the Geo controversy.

The team is locked in defensively, but If it’s one thing NW can do, it’s score (76 ppg). Think this is going to be a game in the 70s.

RU 78
NW 72
