Rutgers Basketball: Thoughts To Ponder Halfway Through B1G Schedule

The Rutgers men's basketball team completed an 0-9 record through the first half of the Big Ten conference schedule. Of course, we cannot forget that they completed a 6-7 non-conference record as well. Rutgers is currently ranked 275th by KenPom, which has predicted they will not win another game this season. Do you know what Rutgers best statistic is within KenPom's advanced scouting report? Free Throw percentage defense, I kid you not. Opponents are shooting only 66.6% from the line against Rutgers, which ranks them 48th best out of 351 teams. That means Rutgers has been one of the luckiest teams in the country in regards to their opponent missing free throws.
