Rutgers men’s basketball (18-12, 10-9 Big Ten) will face Northwestern (20-10, 11-8 Big Ten) on Sunday night after losing to the Golden Gophers on a buzzer-beating-three pointer on Thursday night. Entering play on Sunday, the Scarlet Knights have posted a 2-5 record in their past seven games. However, they will have a shot at redemption against Northwestern.
Earlier this season, Rutgers beat Northwestern and will be looking to replicate that success. The Wildcats have also lost three straight games and only scored more than 70 points once in that span.
This Big Ten matchup will be close as both teams have been solid in conference play. While Northwestern has a better record, Rutgers is heavily favored. They will be motivated to prove their doubters wrong and end the regular season with a win.
