Indiana has failed to cover the number in five straight games against Rutgers. The Hoosiers have a ton of experience and are playing outstanding defense to start the season. They have a strong inside game with Jackson-Davis and score most of their points in the paint. Indiana is knocking down 62.3% of its shots from 2-point range and doesn't take a lot of three overall. Rutgers doesn't have a lot of depth on the bench, as they play 8 players and most of the minutes go to the starters. Indiana on the other hand has nine players playing 14 or more minutes. Indiana will use their defense to wear down the Rutgers team and their efficient low post game will overpower the Rutgers defense. Indiana will cover in this one going away.
