After a dominating and incredible 73-65 road win at Wisconsin, Rutgers basketball now stands at 15-9, 9-5 in Big Ten conference play. What a remarkable turnaround from the Scarlet Knights!

Realistically, unless something weird happens like winning the Big Ten Tournament (or winning several games as a moderate-to-heavy underdog in February), the ceiling for this team is probably now a home game in the first round of the NIT. (Which, by the way, none of us should scoff at. I’d be there screaming my lungs out. Historically, this alone is a well above average season for Rutgers hoops.) That said, because of how this schedule is backloaded, we won’t know…
