Hot-shooting Rutgers overwhelms Michigan State

Piscataway, N.J. – Rutgers' home arena is quickly turning into a house of horrors for Michigan State.

A year after getting run off the floor by 30 points, the Spartans, once again, were overwhelmed in Piscataway, succumbing to a torrid shooting game by Rutgers as the Scarlet Knights used a second-half surge to cruise to an 84-63 victory over No. 13 Michigan State.

The Spartans had won all 11 meetings in the series before last season and now have lost two in a row to the Scarlet Knights, who seemed to make every shot they took, putting together an 11-0 run early in the second half to seize control of the game.
