Rutgers Preview

Two dynamic freshman guards lead coach Steve Pikiell's squad. 

Dylan Harper was the number three rated player in the 2024 class according to 247Sports. Harper has lived up to the hype leading Rutgers in scoring (22.8 ppg) and assists (4.8 apg). 

The last timeout in a victory over Columbia, Harper recorded the school’s first triple-double since 1983. 

Ace Bailey was ranked as the second-best player in the country for the 2024 class and has not disappointed. 

• 18.2 ppg 
• 7.6 rpg (Lead team) 

Harper and Bailey are a factor in this College Hoops Computer Pick. 

Rutgers Season Records

Indiana Preview

The Hoosiers defeated Winthrop 77-68 four days prior. Senior transfer center Oumar Ballo was not in the lineup but not due to an injury. 

Photos surfaced of Ballo at a local Bloomington bar 12 hours before the game and it is speculated that Coach Mike Woodson benched his seven-foot center to send a message. 

IU needs Ballo in the lineup against Rutgers and is a factor in this NCAAB Computer Pick. 

Malik Reneau leads the Hoosiers in scoring at 15 ppg and steals at 1.4 spg. 

IU Season Records

• 10-3
