The October 15, 1976 Targum reported, “During the 1973 season, his first as head coach, (Frank) Burns witnessed the worst beating ever handed one of his squads, when Colgate rolled up a 42-0 victory at Rutgers Stadium. When the Red Raiders returned to Rutgers Stadium, the following year, Burns felt it only fitting that he comply in a similar manner. The result was 781 yard offensive show in which the Scarlet Knights retaliated by scoring more points than any Rutgers team since 1949 in a 62-21 win.”
It wasn’t until December 4, 2008 when Rutgers thumped Louisville 63-14 and topped that performance.
