Welcome to Rutgers Week

[RU#1fan]

Are all 8 Rutger fans commenting on here.

In the New York / New Jersey market we have 17 different Professional Sports teams. A little more options than the Omaha market. BTW 54,000 attended the Rutgers game on Friday night.

Try 0-6. Soon to be 0-7.

I looked it up, and it’s actually 0-5, showing a progression:

2014
Nebraska 42 Rutgers 24
2015
Nebraska 28 Rutgers 14
2017
Nebraska 27 Rutgers 17
2020
Nebraska 28 Rutgers 21
2022

I agree that Rutgers is a solid team - they are built different than in the past. Not sure they are loaded with All-Americans as OP suggests. But expect a hard fought victory in Lincoln.

But I do find it humorous that you would say they are solid in every way and then say in the same breath we will lose every game because of all of our flaws.

If we beat Rutgers then my assessment of how good we are will change. But as it stands now I do not think we are a very good football team. Our special teams are atrocious, our offense prone to self inflicted wounds and a defense that is up and down. I see us beating UCLA but probably losing all the rest. But if we beat Rutgers and play a really good game then I will have to change my assessment.
