The Rutgers vs Maryland season series is tied at a game apiece coming into their rubber match in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. Both teams won on the home court of the other this year and they will look to sew up the season series with a victory tonight. Our expectation is that Maryland will get the job done and cover the spread as a favorite in Minneapolis. Neither of these teams should have much of a crowd edge given where this game is taking place, but Maryland has the edge of having Jahmir Young on their team, who will get key buckets to help his team get a win to advance to the next round.
