Should be an interesting road game for us, we haven't really been tested yet on the road

not like Rutgers is any good but they always seem to have our number in joisey

need to keep the turnovers down, apparently rutgers is 12th in the nation in turnovers forced

KenPom has us as a 1 point favorite.
Torvik has us as a 1.9 point dog.

I think as first game away from home all year, it will be a tough one and is a tossup.

interesting...

I wouldn't have us open at 2.5 point favorites and then growing to 5.5

then again I'm a terrible sports better so this is a good sign

I never bet, but I think Vegas uses a different approach in setting odds as to maximize betting vs the metric based analyst services.

A -5.5 for Illinois seems really high as Rutgers has a pretty high 3.8 point home court advantage bump in their games. (Ours is pretty middling at 3.1).

Are we 9 points better than Rutgers on a neutral court?? It depends on who shows up for us.

I'm torn. Ga-Bama starts at 3 also.
I'll probably record hoops. I did get a chuckle out of "need to keep the turnovers down." And we've lost the last 3 at Piscataway.

Mn, you need a 2 TV hookup at a minimum. Tell Mrs. Mn you are taking her TV and she will have to miss Hallmark Christmas movies for the afternoon.

Make it like the good old days ? 4 tvs, and none with remotes, for New Year's Day bowl games with a batch of chili on the stove.

Yep. I remember growing up, it was always my job to go change the channel, or turn the volume up or down when my dad told me to. And I loved every second of it.

Mine as well, didn't love it, but did love sneaking down from afternoon "nap" after tussling my hair and rubbing my eyes in order to watch the old wrestling with the Sheik, Dusty Rhodes, Andre the Giant, Jerry Lawler, Harley Race and many others....didn't mine manning the tube then.
