Rutgers vs Monmouth
- Thread starter REDRICH65
- Start date
According to the recent poll, Monmouth is the best team in NJ. [roll][roll]
We would win by at least 35.

Never trust Monmouth Univ polls
depends.. Schiano will be training D to do what he says.. they won't be playing straight-up read react allowing their size, skill and speed dominate the opposition. That is.. unless GS has changed.
So.. if the Monmouth O prepared like it was the most important game of their lifetimes.. which is likely.. they would have 3 seconds or less plays.. not allowing a pass rush to get there in time.. and if they spent all summer practice training those plays.. they'd get at least one decent drive.
maybe but they lost a lot from a team that wasn't an offensive powerhouse against better FCS teams to begin with.
42-14
Rutgers grinds it out. These games should never be close and even if they are the better team wears them down. I think it was 2009 and some lower level team gave us a very competitive first half . But we wore them down and the score looked bad .’

Whats the spread. Maybe I will parley RU with OSU tonite. Cannot lose.
I don’t think Monmouth would have scored to be honest. We’d run the ball and run the ball some more. QB would be the kid from Baylor.
41-0 Rutgers

It's game day!!!
Well, it would have been without the political shutdown.

Considering the transfer talent I'm really optimistic about our D. If healthy I think our D is mid-tier B1G at worst, probably better, so I don't see Monmouth scoring any more than 7-10 pts against the 1st team D. Our offense is the question mark but should be big and fast enough against Monmouth. Schiano would be playing the back-ups by the 4th qtr so we may give up some late points. We lead 35-9 going into the 4th, Final: RU 38-Monmouth 16.
After further review, I'm adding on a kick return TD for Aron Cruickshank: 45-16.

Couldn't ask for better tailgate weather than today.
It's a freakin' perfect day for the RU FB opener.😒
would be amusing should someone show up and tailgate over there today.
One of the best days of the year has been robbed from us
California vs. Rutgers on September 15, 2001 was re-scheduled to November 23, 2001 (Golden Bears won 20-10).
In early 1984, ABC "bought out" the scheduled Miami-Rutgers game for $80,000 so they could match up the Golden Eagles with Miami by switching their September 29 game to November 23, 1984 that ended with Doug Flutie's "Hail Mary" pass to beat Miami at the Orange Bowl.
Before that, you would have to go back to the era when NCAA teams were transitioning from 9-game schedules to, eventually, 11-game schedules. Rutgers unexpectedly found itself with an open November 15, 1969 date - one under the 10 game schedule sanctioned by the NCAA the year before. Holy Cross had most of its team contract Hepatitis A from contaminated faucet water. The symptoms didn’t show up until the Crusaders had played their first two games before they canceled their season. Rutgers received an offer from Buffalo to play on the open date and a December 6th offer at Tampa. The team eventually took a vote and it was decided not to play a tenth game.
Is your answer somewhere in there?

In the middle of a pandemic and you're crying abut a football game.
Sad.
I carry that 2001 ticket stub around in my wallet as a reminder that nothing is 100 per cent positive:On Sept.10,I was lamenting the fact that I would not be able to attend the game the next Saturday due to my upcoming gall bladder surgery- after I had gone to Cal in 1999 to see the game there.The horrors of the next day changed that.

Back in the olden days when RU started winning with Greg, if you asked the ticket office how sales were going they'd invariably say 35,000 as if they were reading from a script. Became a running joke.
I agree it'd have been a lot more than 35.
