Rutgers men’s basketball (15-9; 9-5) delivered their most impressive team performance of the season on Saturday as every starter made major contributions in the stunning upset of No. 14 Wisconsin (19-5; 10-4) on the road. It was just the third ranked win on the road for the program in the last 20 years.
After trailing by double digits in the first half of all six Big Ten away contests and 8.5 point underdogs entering Saturday’s matchup in Madison, the Scarlet Knights were locked in as soon as the ball was tipped to start the game. RU led by as many as 9 points in the opening frame before the back and forth affair extended into the final stretch of the game.
