89 - 62 vs Columbia

this isn’t some silly rally cry post, today we’re going to win, and it’s going to be because of our defense. Big game fella’s, LET’S F*CKING GO!!!!

My apologies technical difficulties again with BTN at the Ferryman. We will actually be able to watch the basketball game as well, I believe, as they have a streaming account.

That is all.

MSU are incredibly thin on defense + multiple players who are playing new positions + a lot of players on 2 deep with very little experience.

Normally we want to slow things down, and shorten the game. However here we have an opportunity to attack them, wear down their depleted D and also take advantage of their inexperience on D where hurry up will confuse them.

Bieliema was complaining after their lose to MSU that they were faking injuries to allow substitutions. Hopefully we took note of this

Michigan has their hands full. 51-48 EMU with 16 minutes left. Neutral court game. EMU has some talent with Emoni Bates and Noah Farrakhan.

On ESPN right now.

MSU crappy run D vs. our crappy Oline. Since we don't really have a passing threat I would think it favors them. I'm not a coach, but why not put in an extra lineman instead of non-existent TE's?

A great Saturday live play, who’s doing it?
I think the correct answer in no one.

Visiting OSU with my HS senior son and took in the OSU - Charleston Southern bball game on Thursday. Beautiful arena but the place was less than half empty and completely devoid of any atmosphere. Announced attendance was 8400. I think it was closer to 6k and there may have been 50 students in attendance. No doubt the students have their minds on football and the game was a blowout from the start. Suprisingly, tbdbitl doesn’t make for a great bball pep band and the pregame intros were nothing special. Overall it made me appreciate the RAC even more.

basketball-wise, OSU has some good talent but they have a lot of new faces and not a lot of quality bigs. I think RU will match up well with them.

Kudos to Richie because Rivals kicks ass over it. There are so few interesting threads to follow

Rutgers Football sent out a new offer in the 2023 class as Florida DE Chamberlain Campbell tweeted out the offer.

RUTGERS 77 U Mass Lowell 59

NYT Article explains attendance down from 75K to 35K average since 2014 and they give away tens of thousands of tickets per game...even though Chip Kelly has them winning again. A strong fan base can erode quickly, and tough to get back. Claims that finances are so bad they had to join B1G.

Let us all pray as we prepare for the Church of Chop as our Lord and Savior Greg Schiano and his Knights take on the Spartans of Michigan State. Our Knights return to East Lansing where in 2020 our Lord and Savior Greg Schiano returned to show Faux-Friar Tucker the TRUE meaning of CHOP. We attempt to recreate that magic as we continue our Quest to reach a Bowl… and we shall have no fear.


Let Langan the Brute splinter their defensive shields. Let Ryan the Rugged slip past their thrusting spears. Let Aaron “The Law” Lewis, the Master of Disaster and Izien the Terrible strike terror in their team tunnel. And let the Righteous Boot of the Aussie Assassin Brother Korsak pin the nonbelievers far and deep.

And let us not forget the one and only commandment… “THOU. SHALT. CHOP!”

... is finally here y'all. Sorry, been slammed lately and couldn't get this done before the opener. Anyway, in light of our (so far) awesome play, enjoy!!! See link below, you know what to do. Once again, it's large & high-quality (5120x2880 pixels) and should fit most monitors nicely. Big Cliff in the house:

Big Cliff...

100th win as Rutgers Head Coach.

All predict a MSU win but an RU cover

I’ll be the first to admit I don’t know much about wrestling recruiting so I’ll defer to @Lex Knapp here for some insight.
