What to Know

A Big Ten battle is on tap between the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and the Michigan Wolverines at 7 p.m. ET Wednesday at Crisler Center. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

The contest between RU and the Purdue Boilermakers on Sunday was not particularly close, with the Scarlet Knights falling 84-72. Guard Geo Baker had a pretty forgettable game, finishing with 11 points on 5-for-13 shooting in his 34 minutes on the court.

Meanwhile, Michigan received a tough blow on Sunday as they fell 77-63 to the Wisconsin Badgers. A silver lining for the Wolverines was the play of center Hunter Dickinson, who had 21 points in addition to five rebounds.

RU is expected to lose this next one by 5.5. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread, however, as they are currently on a six-game streak of ATS wins.

RU was able to grind out a solid win over Michigan in the teams' previous meeting last month, winning 75-67. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Scarlet Knights since the squad won't have home-court advantage. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
