Big Win for the Spartans


Maryland is 11-17 overall and 4-13 in Big Ten play. It has been a rough season to say the least. The NCAA tournament is all but a dream for the Terrapins. For More March Madness Betting Odds and Predictions, see the Full Hub".

David Coit is the guy for Maryland. He is averaging 14.5 points per game, but has shown he's capable of taking over a game. He's already put up two 40-point games this season. A big game from him will be devastating for Rutgers.

Rutgers Search for Consitency

Rutgers is 11-17 overall and 4-13 in Big Ten play. The Scarlet Knights have had a brutal season. They are near the bottom of the table with their NCAA Tournament hopes all but extinguished.

Rutgers has struggled to string wins together all season long. A big reason for this is their stagnant offense. They struggle to get consistent good looks against Big 10 caliber defense. If they can turn this game into a low-scoring affair, they can win the matchup.

Rutgers vs Maryland NCAAB Pick

Rutgers vs Maryland has all the makings of a rock fight. Both team struggles offensively, and in the previous meeting, they hit under. Maryland has gone under in five of their last seven games, and we believe that trend continues. With both teams having little to play for, our pick is under (141.5).
