Program is toast. NIL. Portal. Dinosaur offensive coach. Indiana and Illinois have lapped us. So glad I canceled my season tickets 5 years ago. Embarassing for NJ.

I’m just not understanding how our defense went from what it was last season to this.
Well, you see the injury list, right?

What else could it be?

Durgs? Is it drugs? Girlfriends? They all got girlfriends?

NIL money? They are all getting *something* and now have to worry about taxes, car payments and insurance? inflation?

Is it the threat of this election to their democracy?


It is INJURIES.. right?
 
With a banged up defense, Rutgers only chance was to match TD with TD. Then hope for a special teams game changer. The offense is admirable until that dreaded red zone.

I guess it must be that all those questionable are tough injuries we are fighting through. The reality is we are missing 2 defensive players - Toure and Bailey. That shouldn’t take us from top 25ish to this. A couple guys like Jennings graduated too. But still.

We run throughout a drive in which we shouldn’t be running — but on 4th & 1, we don’t run 🙄

Just so done with Kirk

The play call was fine, AK threw behind Miller, still shoulda been caught. But yeah, the runs are baffling. I get sticking a run in now and then to keep them honest. But time’s running out.
 
Any QB options for next year?

Your really putting this on QB play. He’s almost at 60% with a TD and 254 yards. It’s not spectacular but also not why we’re bad. We’d be doing great with this exact offense and last year’s D. We’d have 23. That would’ve been a FG. Offense is doing enough for us to win if we didn’t have like the worst D in FBS.

Lewis, Powell, Longerbeam and Dixon are clearly not 100% and are only playing limited snaps, but even with that, we should still be better than we've shown, IMO.
