Yep, not even close - was easily 75-80% RU fans, easily. Below is how the Times described it and knowing what we did for 2 NIT games is why I have so much confidence in us taking over MSG with a team with the best shot at making the NCAAs for in 29 years.
"The atmosphere inside the Garden had the feel of a big game. With many of the 16,064 in attendance clad in Rutgers red, the game was a virtual home game for the Scarlet Knights from New Jersey. But that did not seem to help Rutgers in the first half, when it appeared as if the Scarlet Knights were continually digging themselves out of a hole."

The trains were a blast the pre-game was awesome and then QD, who had scored 35 in the semis against Iowa State, went 1-13 in the finals against UM (he had a thigh issue that was never disclosed), with Herve keeping us close, but they scored the last 9 points to win 62-55. Nice look-back from OTB.
