The last time the two teams met, they were headed to 4-8 records. NU beat Rutgers in Piscataway three weeks after firing Frost and two weeks after firing DC Chinander. The interim DC Bill Busch admitted that in the game prior to playing Rutgers the goal was to consistently be lined up correctly for the call. That was the team Rutgers lost to at home. Rutgers was featuring a QB that was on the Nebraska roster previously and couldn’t start. Suffice to say that both teams have improved. Schiano and Rhule are coaching upgrades. This will be NU limiting RUs run game vs. Rutgers making Raiola sweat. Rutgers defense looks a little leaky statwise. And can their QB keep his shit together in a stadium that may well be the loudest he’s ever played in.

I've seen a lot of new lows with this program over the last several years. A 4 page smack talk thread with Rutgers fans about who's the tallest midget might be the lowest
You should actually be giving the slope for the line of best fit but I will give you partial credit since it’s a sports board.
It would be much better to develop a system of differential equations to model the outcomes through the years to better account for the multiple variables affecting the score differential. Of course one factor that would have to be accounted for is the Matt Rhule factor and that wouldn’t show up at all in your simple linear model. Feel free to use MATLAB to assist you with your assignment.
Things have changed. The QB on Rutgers roster has beaten Nebraska twice, including once when he subbed in for the starter, while playing for Minnesota in Nebraska in ‘22. Rutgers has a Heisman Trophy Candidate at RB. We also have 3 Fleet Footed Receivers, who are capable of going for 100 yards receiving each. We have a defense that bends and gives up a lot of yards, but hasn’t given up a lot of points. Rutgers will try to keep Raiola off balance with various types of pressure and looks. Nebraska has never played a Rutgers team this good. We are much better than last year, when we beat Miami in the bowl game. Looking forward to the game.
Good lord. You just love this Greek kid narrative. Kind of comical. You just gave up over 500 yards of offense and really lucked out to win that game. Might want to just STFU for a little bit. You guys aren't Ohio St and no one gives a shit if this is the best Rutgers team as Rutgers is a perennial doormat.
It'll probably be a close game because Nebraska plays down to competition, but nothing about your team is scary.
Things have changed for sure. Your Heisman trophy RB is +15000 and tied for 29th in odds. Impressively he’s tied with our very own Dylan Raiola - who no one on our site is saying is a Heisman candidate at this stage in the game because if you give long enough odds to any player in college they would make the list.
For the record, Kaliakmanis wasn’t the QB that beat Nebraska in the opener last year. That was Jeff Sims.
Isn’t that the TRUTH.
Jeff Sims is the GOAT. The most entertaining of QBs, if he isn't on your team.
Assisted by RB Anthony Grant.
anthony grant lost that game, not sims
sims should've never been put in the position he was in at the end
If I have to do all that, I may have to send you an invoice. Running a regression might be the best tool, because you could include Rhules impact, and others as well.
Rutgers Is exponentially better than when we played last time.
Our QB starter played hurt. Our reserve came in and threw an interception which Nebraska scored a TD off of, which proved to be the game winner. This years Rutgers QB threw for 196 yards last year when he led Minnesota to victory over Nebraska. He also won in Nebraska two years ago, when he replaced the Minnesota starter at halftime. Our running back led the Big Ten in rushing last year.
Our defense bends but it doesn’t break, allowing few points this year. Like most defenses, we’ve got room for improvement, and hope to show it this weekend. Our defense is especially tough in the red zone, and Nebraska’s struggles in the kicking game might come back to haunt you. Our kicker was great last year but has struggled some this year. Nevertheless his kicks have provided for the margin of victory against Nebraska and Virginia Tech.
Monangai does what he needs to do in the next four weeks against Nebraska, Wisconsin, UCLA, and USC, the odds won’t matter.
We gave up 500 yards of offense to very good players. Jonah Coleman is an NFL lock. Will Rogers is good enough to get an opportunity.
Saturday, we’ll show you why Rutgers is no longer a doormat. We are trying to be Top Dog.
I'm sure your rb is good but he isn't going to win the Heisman. Let's just stop that nonsense right now.
