And yet suddenly USC looks beatable, especially to a team with our strengths on offense. Win the next two, beat USC and we will be favored win the remaining games. It’s looking like best case a 1 loss season, worst case 3 maybe 4 losses.
So does the OL.Wisconsin will be tough, Athan has to play better.
Yes,Rutgers wasn't going undefeated.At the same time Rutgers should have defeated Nebraska after holding them to just 14 points.The offense was missing in action for most of the game with dropped passes and questionable play calling.Failure to make a touchdown from the one yard line after four plays is inexcusable.And yet suddenly USC looks beatable, especially to a team with our strengths on offense.

100% agree.Yes,Rutgers wasn't going undefeated.At the same time Rutgers should have defeated Nebraska after holding them to just 14 points.The offense was missing in action for most of the game with dropped passes and questionable play calling.Failure to make a touchdown from the one yard line after four plays is inexcusable.
USC will be a good test.And as much as I love Greg, jury is still out that he can get a win against a traditional/good B1G team on the road.
I can gauranty you that one loss season maybe even moreAnd yet suddenly USC looks beatable, especially to a team with our strengths on offense. Win the next two, beat USC and we will be favored win the remaining games. It’s looking like best case a 1 loss season, worst case 3 maybe 4 losses.
I think that is about right.Sticking with my 8-4 prediction.
Sounds about right - maybe 9-3 - and that's a heck of an improvement from the pre-Schiano days. You guys grabbed a solid HC who has you going in the right direction. Other teams can no longer consider Rutgers as an easy gimme game. And keep in mind, that Nebraska team you played yesterday has some talent and was the head scratcher going into this seasonSticking with my 8-4 prediction.
And the OL has to play better. Can’t have another embarrassing performance.Wisconsin will be tough, Athan has to play better.
If black doesn't stop the TD are you still saying that?Wisconsin will be tough, Athan has to play better.
If the O line plays better, so will the QB. If the O line plays as bad as it did against Nebraska, it’s gonna be tough to get wins against anybody we play the rest of the season.Wisconsin will be tough, Athan has to play better.
I should’ve read the whole thread before posting since several of you had already said the same thing I did about the O line. Like most teams in most seasons, our results will largely depend on how our OL and DL do. When the lines play great, it makes it so much easier for the rest of the players, including the WB, to shine.If black doesn't stop the TD are you still saying that?
Our OL has to play better.
I don’t know that I’d conclude that we should’ve beaten Nebraska. I wish we had and the D obviously played well enough to give us a chance. But Nebraska probably thinks they could’ve played a whole lot better on offense in that game too.Yes,Rutgers wasn't going undefeated.At the same time Rutgers should have defeated Nebraska after holding them to just 14 points.The offense was missing in action for most of the game with dropped passes and questionable play calling.Failure to make a touchdown from the one yard line after four plays is inexcusable.
Not sure it would work against 0. We couldn't block him. Reminded me of Vince Wilfork.What happened to the tush push to get a 1 yard TD? We had 4 cracks at it to get a 1 yard TD.
There is no reason to throw the ball on the one.

I absolutely thought the games @ Neb and @ USC were probable loses. As the year has unfolded, the Wisky, Illinois , @ MD games look like tossups and the games vs UCLA and @ Mich St are not easy. I thought UCLA played tough at PSU. They have had an extremely tough schedule. I don’t see how anyone could have realistically predicted better than 4-1 at this point for RU.True, but I don’t think most people thought this one would be a loss at beginning of year. But Ruhle has some big boys on that D Line, they were the difference
Undefeated? Love you for even thinking in those terms.Stronly doubt that any of us were seriously considering a 13-0 season.We have had only 2 no loss teams in last 62 yearsAnd yet suddenly USC looks beatable, especially to a team with our strengths on offense. Win the next two, beat USC and we will be favored win the remaining games. It’s looking like best case a 1 loss season, worst case 3 maybe 4 losses.
RU has not belonged on the same field as good teams because. We are not a FB school,haven't been one and very well may never be one.Three good seasons in the last 63 years is ample evidence that we are not FB oriented even though we started this whole mess 155 years ago100% agree.
That being said, the sky is not falling. I remember many people saying that they longed for the day when it looks like we belong on the field with these teams. Arguably we have jumped past that and are wondering why we didn’t win in a very hostile environment.
Undefeated. That means without feat I believe. I would be surprised but pleased if we won another game this season. Total let down but typical of RU.A good academic school but not even a decent FB program one.Yes,Rutgers wasn't going undefeated.At the same time Rutgers should have defeated Nebraska after holding them to just 14 points.The offense was missing in action for most of the game with dropped passes and questionable play calling.Failure to make a touchdown from the one yard line after four plays is inexcusable.
reinvent history…erect new statues, give Schiano a few awards and retro pay to 2000 and put GW, Mike Conlan and Garrett Shea into the hall of fame .RU has not belonged on the same field as good teams because.

I too like Greg.As a person.As. A FB coach it's up for grabs.The last undefeated team we had was 48 years ago.I was secured at Giants Stadium on Thanksgiving' Day nite. Beat Colgate the Stadium loudspeakers broadcast the sound of the RU bells ringing on campus. Great nite. BUT it was SO long ago. 48 years .Almost half of my 99 years(as of this coming Wed.And as much as I love Greg, jury is still out that he can get a win against a traditional/good B1G team on the road.
We finished that season with Colgate. Our schedule back then was slightly different than it is today.I too like Greg.As a person.As.
