RTC Live: Rutgers @ Notre Dame
Posted by rtmsf on February 15th, 2012
Can Rutgers give the red-hot Irish a run for their money in South Bend tonight? We’ll find out on RTC Live from the Joyce Center…
Game #74. Notre Dame comes into tonight’s showdown with Rutgers as winners of six straight. The Irish last suffered a defeat January 15th to Rutgers on its home court. Since the defeat, the Irish have won home games against Syracuse, Marquette, and DePaul and road games over Seton Hall, UConn, and West Virginia. Notre Dame’s resurgence has been led by a variety of players including sophomore guards Eric Atkins and Jerian Grant, as well as junior forward Jack Cooley. Mike Rice’s Scarlet Knights squad, led by freshmen guards Eli Carter and Myles Mack, will look to notch the season sweep of the Irish. Mike Brey’s squad will look to keep its current hot streak alive, as the Irish have their sights set on a top four finish in the Big East Conference.
