Don't sleep on Rutgers

Played Iowa tough today. Will have the best guard on the floor in Sanders. Really bang the boards. The RAC will be a rockin'

They have a lot of size so, not a great matchup for us from that perspective, But one of the worst noncon schedules that I can remember for any BIG member clearly did not prepare them for conference play, and they have struggled ,mightily. I truly think that we will take care of business here, as they do not take care of the ball at all and teams that turn over the rock a lot do not have a good success rate against us.

Rutgers biggest problem seems to be the lack of an outside game. Keep them out of the paint and you should be fine, but this will not be a gimme like it was last season.

Sanders and Williams are a tough match-up for NU's guards. Very quick. May have to start Ash man for BMac!

You're going to see a lot of this up and down from Iowa this year. And today was definitely a down. The Hawkeyes have a lot of raw talent and they are super young. When they show up, they're going to be tough to beat for most teams. But they will also have games like today where they need to come back late and survive against a bad Rutgers team. Hope we catch them on a down night.
