Great defensive perfornance by RU forcing sone turnovers and then making them pay. Only took a 3-4 minute stretch but Minnesota blinked and Rutgers seized the moment

Of course RU would be nowhere without TQ but I will say Davis a big X factor tonight...note Powers and Lino rode pine after the first 10 minutes. EO took advantage of size advantage..one od his best games
