-	We gained more yards in scoring 29 points vs. Ohio than Rutgers did in scoring 61 points against Temple, 383-365. Their huge total was all turnovers and special teams.

-	Tommy DeVito may have his limitations but at least he avoids turnovers. In 24 career games he has only 10 interceptions. He’s also showing himself to be more of a running threat this year to keep defenses honest, as will the success of Sean Tucker.

-	The thing is, Tommy was recruited here to set passing records. That close-to-the-vest offense we saw last week surely isn’t Dino ball, (even if it looked like dinosaur ball). I have to think there’s an awful lot of the playbook we’ll see this week that we didn’t see last week.

-	The offensive line is healthy and what we are seeing may not be an improvement: it may be what they were capable of all along.

-	Several sources have suggested that Rutgers’ quarterback, Noah Vedral, is a weakness. He’s not a great thrower. And the dangerous Mr. Cruickshank averaged just 6.5 yards per catch on his 37 catches last year.

-	They also had a weak running defense last year. They aren’t sure that the Temple game changes that. Sean Tucker can answer that.

-	Wea re no slouch at takeovers, (we led the country during the regular season last year) , or at special teams. Who’s better than Andre Szmyt? James Williams was a big-time recruit and sure looked good against Ohio. And, while Mr. Cruickshank is dangerous, so is our own Trebor Pena, a New Jersey kid himself.

-	We’ll be there, a raucous crowd that’s waited two years to cheer for this team again. And the team has been waiting two years to hear it.

1-0 and 11+ to go!

LET’S GO ORANGE!!!
