Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 330627, member: 780"] Those SU fans who think that we had a "rivalry" with Rutgers must be too young to remember what a real rivalry was like. To be on the floor of the Carrier Dome when the John Thompson-led Georgetown Hoyas took the court was an experience not to be believed. The throbbing intensity of the dislike for those guys and their coach from 30,000 made the "rivalry" palpable. It still lingers on today even though we have played very few meaningful games against them in a very long time. You can't compare that to a few people trading insults on some message boards. Rutgers would have loved to have a rivalry with SU, to sort of hitchhike on SU's history as an Eastern power. Now, thank goodness, we are shuck of them in a very few months. [/QUOTE]
