Rick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports

It’s been a few days since Michigan basketball‘s incredible come-from-behind win at Wisconsin, but now the Wolverines need to show they can stack success after this pause with Rutgers up next.

The Scarlet Knights are playing really well right now and have won five of their last six games. Michigan basketball is ranked No. 3 in the Kenpom rankings coming into this matchup as No. 26 and most impressively, the No. 12 team in defensive adjusted efficiency.

Rutgers is also battle-tested and according to Kenpom, has played an even tougher schedule than the Wolverines at this point.
