PISCATAWAY, N.J. - Rutgers (8-11, 2-4) returns to the Garden State to meet Connecticut (15-4, 3-3) in a 7 p.m. tip-off on Saturday (Jan. 25) at the 8,000-seat Rutgers Athletic Center. It marks the final scheduled home match-up between the longtime conference foes. It will be a Black Out “on the Banks,” as fans are encouraged to wear black to the game and the first 1,000 to enter the RAC will receive a complimentary blackout t-shirt.

It would appear the players are involved in the festivities as well. NCAA 1-22-4 allows for the home team to wear its dark unis - and vice versa - by "mutual consent."
