PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Rutgers scored its biggest Big Ten Conference victory under coach Steve Pikiell, a 64-61 decision over No. 16 Ohio State.
The win was the Scarlet Knights’ first against a ranked Big Ten team since an upset of No. 4 Wisconsin in January 2015 under then-coach Eddie Jordan.
Montez Mathis hit two contested layups and Geo Baker nailed a jumper with 10.3 seconds to play.
Rutgers scored the final six points in handing the Buckeyes their second straight loss.
