Rutgers rallied and the building rocked, but they fell in heartbreaking fashion, 66-65. Here are 4 thoughts.
Rutgers Can Handle Adversity But Not Prosperity: I thought there was a decent chance that Rutgers would roll over and allow the rest of the season to fall away after the first Iowa game. They didn’t and won two great games vs. Minnesota and on the road against Iowa. But riding high, Rutgers came out flat against Penn State and allowed the opposition to build a huge lead. But, again, faced with adversity, Rutgers dug deep and did almost everything they could to get back in the game and even had the ball and a chance to win at the buzzer.
