Big game in B1G. Would be a monster road win. Go boys. Go RU.

 

[RU848789]

Let's Go Rutgers! Clap, clap, clap-clap-clap! Haven't been this psyched for an RU game since the last game, lol - I vaguely remember that feeling from a couple of the Waters/Bannon years and the two Wenzel NCAA runs and way back to the early 80s as an undergrad. But haven't felt this way in a long time. I could get used to it.

This is an RU fan site, if we are 24 in one poll and 25 in another, we should say we are ranked 24th period.

 

[Tango Two]

9:12 tip-off
