Predictions for RU

Hope I am wrong but this sets up to be a bad match up for Iowa. RU has 3 bigs to harass Garza. Baker and Harper have fared well against Iowa. Need the bench to play big IMO. Rutgers 90-Iowa 78.
 
It's gonna be a physical day so they better go into it that mindset. If the outside game is on, Iowa by 10. If not, could be a long day.

If the refs don't screw Rutgers over then RU wins 83-40.

If the refs call too many fouls on Rutgers and causes their big guys to play tentative, Iowa wins 81-80.




My real prediction, RU wins 85-81.

I think it's fun when opposing fans make predictions here, too.

Iowa 91
RU 84

Iowa up 2 with 40 seconds left, but finally hits some clutch free throws to pull away.
I don't really care. Don't want them seeing our stupid takes.
 
If Rutgers is at full strength, they win. I thought we were fortunate to come up with a “W” last year at Carver against them. We have to be firing on all cylinders and not allow Harper to go off with 30. If we go into this game with the mindset “We are going to outscore them,” we won’t come out of there with a win. The good news is there is no shame losing to a very talented Rugers team. Not even close to that one we gave away to the Gophers. Rutgers 84. Hawks 78.

Actually we only have two bigs, as Cliff Omoruyi is out with a hyperextended/sprained knee. So it’s just Myles Johnson and 6-9 Mamadou Doucoure, and I think Garza will eat Doucoure alive.
 
Rutgers 77-70. Hawks are a much different team on the road.
Based off what? One game LOL. Slow your roll there chief. One OT loss to a pretty darn good Minnesota team doesn't tell you much. After a few on the road with the same results, then you can try and make that arguement

So all of you predicting we lose— will you be on here bitching after the game that we suck again???
 
Would be great to sweep these road games, but we really need to win one or the other. I suspect today's game will be very difficult unless we are hitting on all cylinders.
 
That's it. Banned
