Nebraska doesn’t score as much on the road as they do at home, but even still they average in the 70s on the road, but are 1-3.

But they still have more offense than us, and after last year, they have to feel confident after coming into the RAC and bombing us out of our own building 82-72 on the strength of 12-28 from deep.

We were able to hold down Indiana to 57 points, but they don’t have shooters and are not very good. But Nebraska is a good team that can score at all three levels. This is not a good matchup for a struggling Scarlet Knights squad

Nebraska 75

We are due for a good 3 point shooting night. There will be a few good shooting nights... Why not this game?

Speedy guards bother Tominaga
Cliff double double
Rutgers makes 10 3's with at least 5 players hitting one
Gavin finally contributes and hits multiple 3's
Simpson has one of his good nights
Mag and Hyatt continue to play well
Noah and Oskar each hit a 3

Rutgers 73
Nebby 65

Wishcasting? Probably

Who knows anymore. I can see us getting torched from deep, whether we play zone or man-to-man.

At the same time, it’s possible Nebraska won’t have a good night, being on the road where they have been most beatable.

So that leaves me comparing each team’s recent loss at Iowa, where we lost by 9 and they lost by 18, to give me some hope.

Rutgers wins, 71-67

I get that they crushed us at the RAC last year when we were in our nose dive. But I can't favor Nebraska in our building. RU has had a pulse in some games this year. I think this will be one where the good Simpson shows up and Griffiths hits a few shots. That said, if Nebraska is hot from the arc, it's a problem.

So bummed that objectively I have to predict another home loss for RU, but I just don’t see RU having enough offense to compete with Nebraska. UN 74- RU 60.

I hope I’m wrong.

If the Japanese kid is hitting from half court again and again, it will be a long night for the Scarlet.
