Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs Indiana Hoosiers. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Indiana Hoosiers. Rutgers has a lot of talent, as evidenced by wins over Michigan State, Ohio State, and Purdue. However, the Scarlet Knights underperformed on the road this season, going 3-9 on the road, and can struggle to score the basketball, ranking 255th in scoring offense, 180th in field goal percentage, and t-205th in three-point field goal percentage.

Indiana is a tough road team to play, as the Hoosiers have a 14-3 record, and I believe their defense, which ranks 65th in scoring defense and 14th in defensive FG percent, will cause a lot of problems for the Scarlet Knights, therefore I’m selecting Indiana to cover their mid-range home spread. The Indiana Hoosiers will win to a predicted score of 69-62.
