New Jersey in-state apps prohibit betting on Wednesday night's Notre Dame vs. Rutgers game with the only options being the limited number of offshore sportsbooks accepting NJ customers or a local bookie. This one is a PICK'EM.
Rutgers
KenPom adjusted offensive efficiency: 108
KenPom adjusted defensive efficiency: 43
Against The Spread: 14-16-1
Over Total: 16-15
Odds to win NCAA Championship: +20000
The Scarlett Knights return to the NCAA Tournament for a second straight year, the first back-to-back appearance in over four decades.
They will be battle tested having fought through a tough Big East schedule. Rutgers also knocked off a few ranked opponents this season.
Notre Dame
KenPom adjusted offensive efficiency: 30
KenPom adjusted defensive efficiency: 83
Against The Spread: 17-15
Over Total: 18-14
Odds to win NCAA Championship: +15000
The Fighting Irish enjoyed a successful campaign at home going 14-1 Straight Up this season.
While Rutgers flirted with the Top 25 rankings but comes into this one unranked, Notre Dame is just 7-38 Straight Up against ranked teams dating back to 2016. Rutgers is good enough that this stands out as a troubling stat for the Irish.
We would take Rutgers here.
