812 Rutgers at Penn State

The Scarlet Knights are having a very good season, but they haven’t been productive on the road. Rutgers has just one road win on the season, and that was at a disappointing Nebraska. This team is starting to fade having lost 5 of 7 overall with one of those wins coming in overtime.

On the 15th Penn State won its 20th game by beating Northwestern 77-61. Winning 20 games is something the Nittany Lions had as a goal. Since that time it has lost back to back games against Illinois and Indiana. Now back home we look for Penn State to get back on track and win this one going away. With tough games on deck against Iowa and Michigan State, the Nittany Lions are in need of a satisfying victory here.

502 Philadelphia at Cleveland

The Sixers are treading water right now with a 13-12 record as of late. This is a club that has been great at home but struggles on the road. Philadelphia is just 2-12 straight up as of late on the road. The two victories were at New York by 3 and Brooklyn by 6. Philadelphia is in the midst of playing 10 straight games in different cities. Not playing back to back at home until mid-March.

Cleveland has won 3 of its last 4 contests with the only loss coming at Miami, in the second game of a back to back situation. The way the Cavs are built right now it has one of the deepest and talented front courts in the league. A great matchup here against Embiid, with Simmons still on the sideline. Gotta fade the Sixers here as this team struggles mightily on the road.
