The all-inclusive Rutgers dumpster fire thread...

[721Comstock]

3-3 SUNJ has realistically 1 winnable game
(@ PurDon’t in 2 weeks)

and one maybe/possibly toss-up
(vs State Penn - final game, at “home” - which will likely be a mausoleum by then) left on their schedule.

Their other games;
vs #3 - Oregon
@ #17 - Illinois
vs 4-1 Maryland
@ #1 - OSU

LOL!!

They’d need to beat Purdue, prolly Twerps, and then Ped State to get to 6 wins.

Keep chopping!!

RU (and all their conference brothers) will make bank if this new Big10 deal goes thru. They're saying low 9 figures. Game changer?

 

[JarHeadJim]

The record won’t reflect it but this might be their best team since 2006.

Best 3-3 team in the country

We'll see...I think we'll see some unintended consequences when you turn over your management to $$$ guys.

 

[HRE Otto IV]

You must of wrote this during the 2nd Q last night

Nope, which is kinda my point. They are usually not even competitive for a half. This is progress for them.

Just messing with you Sal...I agree they aren't that bad but someone has to play the part of the Washington Generals in the B1G.

So we are laughing at a team with an identical record to ours, with about the same current outlook of winning any more games as it currently stands? Ok

Ever heard of a rivalry?

Rutgers must be where the saying, in a Rut, comes from.

Don't insult the Washington Generals like that. What did they ever do to you? LOL

Yeah this whole “hey we are retaining control” is nonsense. No one coughs up 2 billion and willingly gives up power

There will be no number next to their name so Franklin wins that game by 50

I bet Michigan and Ohio state gobble up a lot of that money. I don’t think the money is being spread equally…

Supposedly, the big boys will get more for the one time payout but it is allegedly within 1%, or so.

Still not convinced Rutgers gets close to the same payout, they simply don't generate nearly as much money as the average B1G team and no where near close to the top dogs.

I just don’t think this thread is for you.

I just don’t think this thread is for you.

This thread is why we should play them annually.

And several others.

Don’t forget they also borrowed against future earnings. I believe they owe the B1G money.

I will respectfully correct you. Rutgers is not a rivalry. They are beneath us. They were never our peer. They beat us a few times during the depths of our despair. That’s it. They padded their schedule with easy wins to achieve mediocrity. They celebrate mediocrity. We strive for greatness that they’ve never tasted. I think disdain is the word, not rivalry. West Virginia is a rivalry. There is a level of achievement and respect there for the foe that West Virginia used to be. Rutgers? Disdain for a wanna be team that’s never actually done anything. No respect is deserved, none should be given. None. No respect. No rivalry.

You're describing Temple and that's why Temple doesn't have a thread with 13,448 posts and growing.

Temple? Temple didn’t act like their one or two years of semi-relevance were equivalent to 100 years of being an Eastern power. No, I disagree, calling Rutgers a rival gives Rutgers a level of respect that they never actually earned. Perhaps our own insecurity is the reason they are disdained. I get that given the years we’ve suffered. But rival is not something they’ve ever earned the respect of being labeled. Because Schiano complained about our turf and then won a few games at the end of the Big East? Nah.

 

[CA Monk]

I was told there wouldn't be hostility.
