(NCAAB) Ohio State vs. Rutgers,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -113.00 Rutgers (Home)
Result: Win
Ohio State is not a particularly experienced team, so I do not mind fading the Buckeyes on the road. Rutgers has been excellent at home, winning eight of its last nine games and pounding Mich St over the weekend. They will have a big height advantage on Wednesday, so they should win the rebounding battle. I expect some regression from Ohio State offensively on the road, as it is harder to shoot well in front of a raucous crowd. Rutgers is in a must-win position as far as building its NCAA Tournament resume.
