However, it won’t be an easy task. Led by coach Steve Pikiell, the Scarlet Knights (7-3, 0-1 Big Ten) have won back-to-back games. The streak started with a win at Seton Hall on Dec. 9, which is Rutgers’ lone top-100 KenPom win this season.
Mississippi State enters the contest having won its previous three games. MSU has three top-100 KenPom wins. The Bulldogs are 4-0 in neutral site games and 0-1 on the road. Coach Chris Jans is in his second season at Mississippi State.
