I think we will need to get 30 points or more to win. WSU is probably going to smoke our secondary. It might be a real barn burner like 1992 VT.
How many points will we need to win the game Saturday?
- Thread starter Extra Point
- Start date
The real question is, do we open the game with a bomb to Carroo again....and do they fall for it....again?
60+
I say we keep our foot on the accelerator all game long for EVERY single game we play. Just like Ohio St does. We need to have that killer instinct. The team's goal should be to blowout EVERY opponent.

(n + 1) where n = Number of points scored by WSU
I am expecting a high scoring game but hope that our lines will dominate on both sides of the ball. Their QB last year was good at getting off quick passes but I'm hoping the new guy won't be as good as that so that our D-line will have a day like Temple's did on Saturday.
On O, I'm expecting RU to have several long drives in which we chew up the clock, keeping WSU's O off the field. But I also expect us to take advantage of their apparently many defensive weaknesses and have some very big scoring plays.
It should be a fun game but I would like to be relaxed going into the 4th quarter.

Assuming good weather, Don't see a realistic scanairo that we win this game in the 20s
As every game, you need to think scoring in the 30s plus and a gameplan to hold the opposition to 24/375

Pump Fake it to Caroo, and hit grant on a seam route for 20+ yards.

it rained all through that game, that had to hurt the passing game for them
anyway, I figure there will be times we have sustained ground running drives that eat up time,
so we need 30 pts to win, if this is so
Honestly, 51
Unless their starting QB's injury is worse than reported.
If Hamilton was playing I'd feel more comfortable.

I'm thinking 30ish. What did they score vs Portland State? I know it's one game, but I'm not sure we should expect a well oiled offensive machine coming into Piscataway on Sat.
It's a new QB, he seems to be banged up, we will prob bang him around some more, we will control the game on the ground on offense.

Interesting point. But when was the last time a football game was won 2-0? Rutgers beat Stevens by the score of 2-0 in 1882, but back then a goal was worth 1 point.
Lets put it this way - if Im the coaching staff, Im certainly not planning on winning any games scoring in the 20s until the new secondary shows it can do its job. Assume we need at least 35 to win against anyone better than Army and Kansas.
