As you know by now, the Rutgers men’s basketball team picked up their first conference win of the season on Saturday, ending a seven game losing streak and bringing their overall record to 12-8, including 1-6 in Big Ten play. Now that the elephant has left the room and a winless conference season is off the table, it’s time to contemplate how many games Rutgers can win the rest of the way.
Defense and rebounding has given this team a chance to be competitive on any given night, but it’s still unlikely Rutgers will be able to knock off one of the top teams in the conference.
