Related Topics: Big Ten Conference

The college basketball gods finally decided the Rutgers men's basketball team had suffered long enough. What other explanation can there be after hosting a Minnesota team so badly shorthanded for the last game of the regular season? After losing 32 straight Big Ten games and enduring a program record 17 game losing streak, Rutgers was handed a win on a silver platter. It had been 68 days since they last won a game, an 89-66 victory over UMASS-Lowell. It had been an incredible 419 days since Rutgers last won a Big Ten conference game, the epic upset of last season's national runner-up, Wisconsin.
