Two games ago against Iowa, they ended up losing 84-73, and in the last game against Oregon, they ended up losing 75-57.

Ace Bailey has been the top player for Rutgers this season averaging 18.6 points while shooting 46.6 percent from the field. 

Washington Coming off  a Win

Washington hasn’t found a whole lot of success this season, but they are coming off a big victory in the last game. Washington went on the road against the Penn State Nittany Lions and they were able to pick up the victory. Washington scored 41 points in the second half and that was enough for the win. Mekhi Morton had a strong game putting 20 points and one rebound. 

Washington sits with a 13-12 record overall and they have gone 13-11 against the spread. Washington is averaging 71.9 points while their defense is giving up 73.1 points per game.

Rutgers vs Washington Prediction

These are both teams that have been disappointing this season, but Rutgers on the road has been even more disappointing. Straight up away from home, Rutgers has gone only 2-6. Washington overall is averaging over 71 points per game, and they are going to go well over that number here. Look for Rutgers’s offense to be awful here, and it’s going to be Washington that will come out on top.
