Soon...games like Miami ARE NOT going to be considered an upset...

[Scarlet Shack]

Very soon.

Guys, we are for real/

We have a lot of talented basketball players...who are young, have a lot of upside, and will develop.

We have more talent coming in for next year.

And class of 2020 recruiting could bring in a monster class

We have NOT arrived yet...but it’s coming and going to happen

And pretty soon...games like last night on the road against a power 5 opponent that has a good chance of landing an at large NCAA bid... won’t be an upset

No coverage of the game in Star Ledger today. What is up with this paper? If you can't send a beat write at least put the AP article in the paper.

If we lost, it would have been the lead story

WCTC didn't even mention the final score on the morning news but cited scores for the Nets and Knicks.

Many of us predicted a win. We must bELieve.

I mean I picked us to win but the spread was 12 so gotta consider it an upset. Tomorrow's win will definitely be an upset though

They were a top-21 KenPom team on the road... so yeah. Maybe u were being sarcastic...

Nice win by Rutgers. B1G probably should have won the challenge this year. Purdue and MSU both let games get away from them, and Ohio State and Minnesota really laid eggs. Coach B at Michigan really seems to have that team rolling. Should be a more typical season than last year, when the league was down.

Kenpom does not tell all, and it does not tell matchups.

Plenty fans picked Rutgers for the win. It is all based on matchups. Beating a ranked team is a true upset to me. Rutgers will have at least two big upsets.

Absolutely! Omoruyi shot is so important going forward. He is confident shooting it, and as a fan, confidence is pretty high. If he can pull big rebounders out, the chance will always be there. Lamar stevens on upenn, tomorrow, etc. Pull bigs out of the paint and Rutgers will have better chances.

 

[BoroKnight]

The ONLY definition of an upset should be the favored team losing. This was an upset.

My only problem with this team is that it's young. We're going to have ups and downs because of youth, but it sure will be fun to watch it develop.

Kratch covered this game off of the television. Hell, when we did that IN COLLEGE we didn't put a byline on it ...
