Don't think will see the scoring fireworks we saw yesterday, Buckeyes always play slow.

Interesting that RU pace is significantly higher so far this season, some of that has to be due to JY and Mathis increased playing time, (and JY on ball) neither of them like to walk it up lol

This is a tough spot. Coming off a big win yesterday, #11 ranking today, on the road against a top 25 team and heading into Christmas home time. This one has me a little worried. Pike will have his work cut out for him keeping everyone's heads screwed on right.

RU wins. Oscar, Duke (if Cliff can't go), Mag (if he's able), and maybe Reiber all get some PT (need to get the frosh experience).

There's always one constant fly in the ointment of these predictions....I think he's 0 for his last 3 picking against RU....eventually you will be right, hope you're not a betting man, been watching him and comments for a couple of years now, keep picking against us, it's divine indeed....🤣🤣
Same with "proud" NJ sports fan and the always underselling FIG to call out some more doubters... although picking Illinois wasn't crazy or anything

OSU looks like a good matchup for us. If we bring our game we really should take it to them. ESPN predictor only gives us 34.6% chance to win lol... we should be favored when the lines come out by a few

OSU is deep and runs a lot of players. They shoot well from 3. On short rest, and down a big man, we have some vulnerabilities to OSU. Myles staying out of foul trouble will be key.

RU 76-70

I think the ESPN thing is bot generated....I went to it after our ranking jumped and I don't think it moved....so it's either spam (Insert Monty Python song here) or just plain crap. Or both. Probably both.

It's ESPN so it's most definitely crap.

Have you ever picked a Rutgers team to win? I was going down the list and waiting to see your name and wondering if you picked us to lose by double digits or not. Shocked you have one of the best teams in the nation only losing by 6.

Can't see us overcoming the absences of both Cliff and Mag. Core rotation is down to 6 guys, and we will have to rely on deep reserves Doucoure, Reiber, and Palmquist on the road. Will take a mini-miracle to overcome these issues.

OSU 78
RU 69

Don't you think mini miracle is a bit of an overstatement? We still have our best 6 or so players

I see "proud" is right on queue as always. Was the name intentionally ironic?
