D+ for Rutgers

[RU Husky]

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...-all-128-teams-fbs-college-football/78670874/

In the same group as Arizona State, BC, Oregon State, Illinois and Texas; ahead of Maryland and Purdue in the B1G.

cant argue with that, especially if they consider the off the field antics.

Not a serious rankings. They gave Tempe an "A". We had a better year than Temple and they won 10 games and we won 4. Let's be honest, if we had played them we would have easily won by at least three TDs.

We had a better year even though they won 10 games and we won 4? How do you define "better year"?

 

[ejgonz]

I don't think we would have beaten Temple at all, and certainly not by 3 TDs.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Temple would have taken us to church this season.

 

[RUSK97]

Temple would have taken us to church this season.

Taken us to church? Oh no, they would have done some unholy things to us behind the woodshed.

 

[RU31trap]

Considering the circumstances I believe that's a fair grade. Now we got to use that grade and use it as an incentive to do better next year.

 

[ScarletStateofNJ]

Don't worry. Kyle Flood is discreetly meeting with the article writers to discuss this grade.

 

[imbazza2]

Temple manhandled PoSU, we were manhandled by PoSU
Temple would have beat us handily. We win by 3 Tds is pie in the sky.
Temple outcoached us this year. talent level aside.
Go Ask PoSU>>> Temple out coached them as well!

Bright side, it's not a F. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

We should send a few of our former players over to have a 'talk' with the writer of this article.

Because we want to make having players arrested for assault a tradition here at RU?

This is NJ. We know people we can send to have a talk with the writer.

Transitive theories usually fail.
That said, TU barely beat a horrible UMass. They were in a shootout with crappy SMU. Got hammered by USF.
Yeah, RU was not great. But on any given day, you never know what can happen. I doubt they would have beat RU "handily."

He's meeting them at the NY Times offices and told them not to bring their press badge to keep things discreet

Amazing.

lmao

 

[RUfromSoCal?]

total bs - everyone knows we got a T grade

 

[brgossRU90]

It seems like a generous grade to me. What happened this season that wasn't abysmal: coach got fired bringing AD down with him, off-field discipline issues, terrible offense, terrible defense, bad QB play, not a single upset win...

I don't know. I think a lot of people here were pretty upset with our win over Indiana.

I think this is sarcasm. I hope it is

 

[czxqa]

New Coach?

 

[mildone]

New Coach?

That definition definitely works for us, in isolation.

We can't be so sure, yet, if it works in a competition with Temple. Time will tell. I'm optimistic.

 

[shields]

How about the game vs Michigan State. If we played like that we could have won, Carroo destroyed MSU. Didn't Temple beat UMASS by like 2 points.?

comments like this crack me up, first of all they had a better year, and most of all they would have been fired up to play us and with the former staff, I doubt we win....but to say "easily won by at least three TD's" is delusional, thanks for the laugh

 

[Villanovafan35]

And temple was beating Notre Dame with 3 minutes to go. Temple would be between a 8-12 point favorite of RU this season on a neutral field.

most delusional post of year:
Temple 27, PSU 10
PSU 28, Rutgers 3

 

[Yeah Baby]

Nobody knows who would win RU vs Temple. But we do know if we played Temple's schedule we have better chance to win 8-9 games and if Temple plays our schedule they may have lost more than they won. That we know for sure.

True. Good point.

 

[biazza38]

who cares what the rating says. We went 4-8. I don't need some stupid write up to tell me we had a bad season.

if there is anything that is "for sure" in college football, its that nothing is for sure
