If Flood beats Louisville in the last regular season game in his first year, he wins the conference, goes to the Orange Bowl, and probably buys himself at least 4 more years.
Congratulations Coach Flood-Big 12 Recruiter of the Year!
- Thread starter Knight Shift
- Start date
and front row tickets to the Counting Crows!!!
Back to that Louisville game, I have said the same thing before on this forum, but leaving that game was like leaving a funeral. IIRC, there was a controversial call about an ineligible receiver downfield, and wasn't Teddy Bridgewater quite hobbled for that game? Was Bo Boroski one of the referees?
I forgot RU's last two drives ended with interceptions.

Louisville game was a tough loss .
Bs penalty on the fake FG . Senior defense let us down . Nova was horrific

We also got Gibson'ed and Monro'ed...What TB did in that game was generational. The horrific calls in that game also decided it.
Bridgewater didn't start the game. I believe he had a badly sprained ankle and wrist and wasn't even supposed to play. The BS illegal man downfield penalty cost RU a TD. Why they didn't blitz mercilessly when he came into the game was a mystery.Back to that Louisville game, I have said the same thing before on this forum, but leaving that game was like leaving a funeral.

No it wasn’t . Our senior defense let us down, a bad call and nova played like crap . If just one of those things doesn’t happen, we win that game.
You could look at it both ways- TB was heroic that day. But there were 2 or 3 plays we couldn’t do anything different that cost us that game. The 14 PSU game was similar - 4/5 plays that won it for them and if a single on of them didn’t go their way- we win. And I may be wrong but at least one of those plays were on the officials.
TB was heroic if you are a louisville fan.
If you’re a rutgers fan , you know the defense let you down . He should have been put on his a$$ a few times even if it cost 15 yards . That’s on the HC and DC.
And nova stunk and so did the officials.
You bring up the Penn state game. On a side note , as much as flood stunk here he gets major credit for what he did the next week . After that devastating loss in 2014, he got those kids to go down to navy and get a win against a solid opponent the next week . That was one of the most impressive and underrated wins in rutgers history.
Their WR's made a couple of insane catches too
We never should have been in that position if not for the Refs but we witnessed a generational performance in that 2nd half
I do think Flood should have changed it up and blitzed him more but my gut tells me that kid would have still found a way on that day
The guy never should have been a HC.
OTOH Flood’s 27-24 record at Rutgers, in spite of 4-8 (1-7) in 2015, looks pretty good at this point. Greg 2.0 will be looking up at that record for quite some time.
