Penn State's worst game of the season (in my opinion). Penn State led by as many as 19 points and held the lead for 32:35 seconds of game time. Meanwhile, Rutgers only led for four minutes the entire game, and its largest lead was 3.

The Lions didn’t score from the field over the final nine minutes of the game, and made only one of their last 18 field goal attempts.  The Lions shot an abysmal 28% from behind the arc, including a combined 1-18 from Lundy and Andrew Funk. Overall, Funk and Lundy went 2-23 from the field.

Rutgers' key to victory was double teaming Penn State's best player (Jalen Pickett) and daring Penn State to score with whatever Lion was left open.  And for the most part, it worked.  Only Camren Wynter contributed with any significance for Penn State (16 points).
