Don't even, I  hate Rutgers. Which is exactly why it burns my azz so much seeing them fill their stadium and beat a powerhouse like Michigan, even if they do suck this year. Flood looked like a train wreck and suddenly has his team at 5-1. They get more for Howard than we do for 'Ville.  Some of you may call it smoke and mirrors, an illusion, whatver and maybe it is. It's no illusion they put more butts in the seats though, that's very real. And while their 5-1 record might be some kind of slight of hand based on a horrific SOS, the fact is right now, they are 1 win away from a bowl. We are 4, starting a new QB and OC. Why do I even care, because for us to get back into NJ, which I feel is very important to the success of this team, we don't need a semi-successful B10 program in their backyard! We need Rutgers to be Indiana, not Iowa. If NYS  had half of the athletes that jersey does I wouldn't even care but outside of NH, Vermont, Delaware, and Alaska, I think NY probably puts out the least amount of actual D1 material. We use to own NJ and when we did, we were good. A 5-1 team with a full stadium in your own state looks alot better than the mess we've become. Fact is high school kids don't care about Julie's wedding video, or the fact the program is in the red, or the fact some BB coach threw a ball at his players years ago. They care about playing in front of full stadiums on teams that are successful, or at least appear to be on the surface.
