THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-WAKE FOREST PREDICTION THREAD

Wake Forest 73 RUTGERS 68

 

[bac2therac]

4 guys on Wake basically do all their scoring....69.4 of their 78.9 average

 

[Rutgers25]

Wake can score and we can’t. Don’t think they are a good defensive team, but don’t think it will matter

Another loss made less painful by a certain pre-game announcement.

 

[Degaz-RU]

I heard on the Rutgers Rant podcast this week that Rutgers has 10 straight losses in OOC games away from the RAC in the past few years. That's a stunning stat, and unfortunately I think it continues tomorrow.

Wake -- 74
Rutgers -- 68

 

[Joey Bags]

Their resume to date is mediocre AF. This will be an easier game than IL.

Wake Forest 73 RUTGERS 68

After last Saturday's performance it is almost impossible to predict a road win here:
WFU 77- RU 66

[mildone_rivals]

69 - 0 RU

 

[RUJMM78]

The obvious flaws in rebounding and scoring make it very difficult to predict wins on the road.

Wake 92-53

No way RU gets smoked like that

[fluoxetine]

Defensive performance against Illinois was very bad. That will not sit well with Pike. Defense will be on point this game, RU wins a low scoring game.

 

[RUbytheshore]

RU 63 - WFU 67

 

[BillyC80]

There’s stats and then there’s matchups. I think we’ll do better on the boards and we’ll force turnovers which is becoming our calling card.

I’d feel better at home but my guess is we keep it close on the road. Possible OT, may come down to FTs.

RU squeaks by, 70-68.

 

[Rutgers56_rivals]

Wake Forest 73
Rutgers 61

They have better scorers, we can’t rebound and we never win games away from home, out of conference anyway. No chance.

 

[scarletrat]

I think we bounce back and find a way…may be an aberration but at least for 1 Night we shoot well

RU 76-72

At the risk of actually getting a response, despite the rhetorical nature of this question...

Do you really think Wake ain't Woke?

 

[mildone_rivals]

Oh, and you couldn't add a measly 4 points to the RU prediction? C'mon man.

 

[Salvi's Headband]

All of our memorable wins last year were away from the RAC. We're transforming into road warriors!

RU - 70
WF - 62

 

[fatsam98]

Seeing Wake -1.5 fwiw. O/U of 138.5, so about 70-68

[Greene Rice FIG]

Rutgers is a 1-2 point underdog. In normal times 90% would pick RU in a close to pick em game

Rutgers goes on the road. Wake Forest gets disrupted by our 3/4 press. Our offense finds it a lot easier to play against a ACC team.

I know WF is better than Georgetown but I see it as a similar game where we have the look as a better team

I dont like how we are playing. We have so much to inprove. I still see us as a .500 team

With that said
RU 74
WF 62

In the words of Mr. TV…”take it to the bank”

Gavin will not get abused defensively and be good on O
Cliff 17 pts 15 reb 6 blks
Hyatt 21
Noah Nuts 16

Lose a heartbreaker 74-72 on a buzzer beater 3 after refs blow a call late

Please god no.

 

[rob kight]

The RU jinx is back. There Gonzaga transfer center gets NCAA waiver just in time for our game. RU waiver requests always reside at the bottom of the NCAA pile. He is an impact player and will make our small upset more difficult. But I think the team regroups after the last game performance and plays their best game of the year. Wouldn't it be nice if Mag plays to offset Elliot on WFU. Ru gets 3 point win.

 

[CranfordKnight]

WF is a bad defensive team. I think it will be the Noah and Gavin show. 77-70 good guys.

Kind of with contrarian FIG here... when most people think we suck, the team has responded with a win in year's past. Maybe it's a game early and it's full capitulation for the SHU game and we win there

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Bounce -back game for RU...

Rutgers.............74
Wake Forest....68
