Checked out a cuse board and there was some good discussion... here are some thoughts from their view
- first some props as many fans brought up how we got screwed last year and despite hating us they actually felt for Rutgers fans and the ending of the NCAA drought
- Rutgers doesn't shoot the 3 well or often. They also can't shoot FTs so they should hack us around the rim
- Rutgers calling card is defense and physical play. We are bigger and more athletic and will try to get out and run. Good test for Cuse
- acknowledge Rutgers has strength at the 5 and a rebounding blocking presence there. Marek at 5 they are saying could be a matchup problem for us on the perimeter and they hope to draw the bigs away and use Marek to pick up fouls on our bigs
-they expect Kadary to be a matchup problem for us on both ends. Expecting a short bench rotation this game so foul trouble is a concern if Rutgers plays physical and attacks the rim
