Steve Pikiell accepted two of the most difficult jobs in college basketball (Stony Brook, Rutgers) and miraculously performed two of the best rebuilding jobs in college basketball.

Michigan (-2.5) over Rutgers
The best player on the floor (Hunter Dickinson) is playing his best, averaging 26 points and 13.3 rebounds over the past three games, while shooting nearly 65 percent from the field.
Rutgers’ offense has no one it can rely on, as witnessed in a 58-45 home loss to Michigan last month, when the Wolverines were without second-leading scorer Jett Howard.
After losing six of their past eight games, the Scarlet Knights’ struggles away from home will create a nerve-wracking Selection Sunday.
