Rutgers has been a big win for us the past seasons. We needed the win both times, for our morale and for our record to get into the play-offs. Both times we have played them, it has been pouring rain. They are a talented team who you can bet are going to get at least 1, maybe 2 of the better players in each class because of the size of their school and the extent of their athletic budget.
They are in our conference too, so in a way this game is much bigger than either the Duke or Syracuse game because if we win out conference we get an automatic bid to the NCAA tounnament, which is the main goal for the regualr season.
So for the third year in a row, Rutgers is a big win for us. Hopefully the weather does not have to be the same for us to be successful. Hopefully it will be sunny in New Jersey as we win. If its gotta rain for Loyola to win though, bring on the torrents.
Post is short because I am writing it in the morning before we go get on the bus. If I can ellaborate more from the hotel I will. Wish us luck.
