We win - as usual following a win someone starts a new string discussing our at large chances. This time contemplating the possibility of selection with 15 losses.

If Ace is Ace, I think we'll win. If Ace struggles or doesn't play at all, it's going to be tough.

With a relatively healthy Ace, Rutgers wins 89-79

If Ace can't go, it's a tossup to me, but since we're at home, I'll go Rutgers 84, Iowa 80.

My prediction is based on Bailey and Harper are both healthy.

Rutgers 76 Iowa 71

I haven't really seen a lot of goalpost moving on this.. there's always been a contingent that thought 18-13 has a shot (I am/was in this contingent though I am starting to see it more bac's way.. 18-13 would be in the conversation but likely on the wrong side of it), a contingent that thought 19-12, and the few who think 19-12 wouldn't be enough.

Someone will surely start some discussion (if we win) on the chances of finishing the last six games 5-1 or 6-0 but I don't think they'll talk about getting in at 17-14 lol.

The discussions always pop up after a win. We would need to beat Purdue to even sniff the bubble and as you said - 14 losses would probably be the wrong side of it regardless. The auto-bid is, at this point, our best chance.

His baseline personality is now hands in pockets, 24/7.

Rutgers 90
Iowa 75

All you have to do is put two relatively athletic defenders on Sandfort and Dix, and there isn't anyone else who can score enough. Really like what Drew Thelwell has brought, but he might not play and certainly won't be 100% if he does.

RU 82- Iowa 77. We control most minutes of the game, but Iowa goes on 2 or 3 3 point shooting spurts to keep this close. We will threaten to pull away in this game at least twice and they work themselves back in.

I saw him get injured then changed the channel. Heard he came back in!? That's pretty wild, he was in serious pain. But yeah, with it being an ankle (right?) he def won't be 100%

He tried to tough it out, but couldn't continue. Really love his attitude and ability as well. Wish we had more like him.

So per Richie, Ace doesn't have the flu (asthma attack messed him up against UMD). That being the case, it is absolutely imperative that RU wins this game. That would put them 1 game over .500 with 3 winnable and 3 tough games remaining on the schedule.
