Can someone repost the availability details? It’s paywalled at NJ.COM and I don’t want to give them clicks anyway.

It looks like Rainey and Bailey are out for a second straight game.

 

[mildone]

It looks like Rainey and Bailey are out for a second straight game.

I am all for resting and reserving any players with nagging injuries for these early games. Gonna need ‘em as healthy as possible later on.

 

[RU-Kidding]

It looks like Rainey and Bailey are out for a second straight game.

Sam Brown is out too.

 

[ClassOf02]

Does anyone have the full injury report?

 

[bac2therac]

Attendence is going to be brutal

 

[Extra Point]

Go RU!

 

[mdk01]

Does anyone have the full injury report?

I'd be interested in the status of the Akron QB

 

[rurichdog]

Attendence is going to be brutal

Black Lot much more full than last week. Have hope.

 

[rucoe89]

Sam Brown is out too.

Oof. Sam Brown just cannot stay healthy. Unfortunate for him as he was just getting back to himself last week.

 

[ClassOf02]

I'd be interested in the status of the Akron QB

Me too. But Akron isn’t required to release anything. Rutgers (and all B1G schools) are required to release an injury report 2 hours before kickoff.

 

[RU-Kidding]

Does anyone have the full injury report?

Here you go...

OUT 1 Mohamed Toure (season) AJ Surace 23 Wesley Bailey 25 DK Gilley 27 Samuel Brown V 46 Sam Pilof 51 Troy Rainey 61 Emir Stinette

QUESTIONABLE 16 Michael Dixon Jesse Ofurie 20 Ja’shon Benjamin 23 Edd Guerrier 21 Al Shadee-Salaam 22 Tyreem Powell 38 Timmy Ward 63 Taj White 83 Dino Kaliakmanis

[Extra Point]

We will see a lot of Raymond today.

 

[HPNJRUfan]

Student section is pretty empty 10 min prior to kick
(No problems with bag lines at the south entrance, but maybe that's because no one is here)

 

[koleszar]

Bag lines once again a complete cluster fvck and we entered 40 mins. Before the game

 

[BossNJ]

BTN showing the freaking Penn State game.

I’m in Princeton, WTF?

 

[Knight Owl]

We will see a lot of Raymond today.

“Shake and bake” will leave defenders shook and cooked!

 

[koleszar]

Well done Rutgers crowd on singing the National Anthem after the mic screw up

Here you go...

OUT 1 Mohamed Toure (season) AJ Surace 23 Wesley Bailey 25 DK Gilley 27 Samuel Brown V 46 Sam Pilof 51 Troy Rainey 61 Emir Stinette

QUESTIONABLE 16 Michael Dixon Jesse Ofurie 20 Ja’shon Benjamin 23 Edd Guerrier 21 Al Shadee-Salaam 22 Tyreem Powell 38 Timmy Ward 63 Taj White 83 Dino Kaliakmanis

I'm concerned about Bailey. Schiano is very cagey on this stuff - remember Needham wasn't "a season ending deal" but he still was out for months.

Whatever service you have, check the BTN overflow channel.

 

[mildone]

Holy cow. Nobody is at the game.

 

[RU to the Core]

Is there a different BTN because where I live it’s showing Penn State at 12. Nevermind. Saw the message above

 

[mildone]

Taryn is good at her job and also very pretty.

 

[BossNJ]

Whatever service you have, check the BTN overflow channel.

False alarm, ha ha. Was able to live stream off the Fox Sports app.

Thanks!

 

[SBP]

NOT ON COMCAST!!!!!

 

[ashokan]

 

[Knight Shift]

I miss Gavin 🙄

 

[bac2therac]

Terrible throw there

 

[Extra Point]

That is what I was afraid of. AW threw it up for grabs for an int.

 

[zappaa]

Poor throw.
2 out 3 poor

 

[ClassOf02]

Bad throw, and someone must have missed a block. AK took a hit on that one.

 

[bac2therac]

Holy cow. Nobody is at the game.

Not surprising...terrible entertainment product last week and now another no name opponent with some showers in the forecast

 

[RuSnp]

Our guard got beat badly on that pressure/hit. Not pretty.

 

[BossNJ]

NOT ON COMCAST!!!!!

Try the Fox Sports app

 

[bac2therac]

Penn state losing 7-0

 

[bac2therac]

Offense continues to be inept
