The Badgers seek their first road win of the season Monday at Rutgers where they're expected to face two of the nation's top freshmen.

As Ace Bailey made the long walk back to the visiting locker room at Assembly Hall, public address announcer Jeremy Gray made sure the Rutgers star was recognized for the unforgettable performance he just put together.

Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey are the most prominent duo in the nation, and they showed it again in a lopsided win over Columbia. Harper had 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 12 assists to record the first triple-double for his program in over four decades.

Rutgers’ star freshman guard Dylan Harper was ruled out prior to the Scarlet Knights’ contest against Indiana men’s basketball on Thursday, despite being listed as questionable on the Big Ten availability report. NJ Advance Media reported an hour and a half before tipoff that Harper was not scheduled to play.

Despite a career performance from Ace Bailey in which he outscored all of his teammates combined, Rutgers could not overcome the absence of star guard Dylan Harper at Assembly Hall, falling 84-74 to Indiana on Thursday to suffer its fifth loss in its past eight games.

The Brooklyn Nets don't have their eyes too far from Rutgers, especially after Ace Bailey put up 39 points last night.
