We ended up dominating UMass in the dreaded Black Friday matinee game instead of our usual trap game, so I expect to do the same and take care of business on Sunday.

Rutgers 73
Lafayette 59

I think Lafayette tries to use the same formula most low majors have used against us, Chuck up 3's and foul the heck out of us. I think this will keep Lafayette within striking distance of us all game. I'll go with 77-73 RU.

Lafayette will have their moments but we have too many weapons for them to defend and our defense will be a big test for them. I do think the fact that we’re the hunted negates our home court advantage in a game like this.

Hate to say it:
Lafayette 75
RU 70

However i will make another prediction. IF we win, we will win against Caldwell, Penn State and Nebraska.

Will RU be willing to constantly defend the 3?

If not, this can be a demoralizing loss.

If so, they can win by a dozen or so.

I'll go with a very close win with help from the crowd

We hold it out at 6 to 8 the whole game, we can’t pull away because Lafayette answers with a big 3 or bucket every time we try to, in the end they start fouling and we win it by 11-13
