From the booth

The model favored RUTG to win, and the call landed.

Rutgers is gonna be heavy favorites here, ninety eight percent to take this one at home, and honestly the model's not even breaking a sweat on this matchup. The Scarlet Knights have everything working in their favor, from the Vegas spread at forty three and a half points all the way down to having the edge in both offensive and defensive efficiency over their last five games. Howard's looking at just a two percent shot, which tells you everything you need to know about the talent disparity we're about to see on the field.
