Ohio State men’s basketball vs Rutgers: Game preview and prediction

There’s a scene in the movie “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,” towards the end, where Ricky Bobby (played by Will Ferrell) and Cal Naughton (played by John C. Reilly) work together during a race so that Ricky can pass his newfound nemesis Jean Girard and win the race at Talladega Superspeedway.

Naughton pulls up directly behind Girard, forcing him to box out Naughton and leave open space for Bobby to pass. With his rival boxed out, Ricky Bobby has a wide-open window to make a move, and he takes it. Eventually, Ricky Bobby wins the race.
