How have we forgotten to play football when we have 2 Big East Championships and a BCS Bowl appearance?

Kinda makes you think what your college forgot, no?

And you are still stuck!

Let me try to break this down for you easy.

Big East championships:
Rutgers - 1
Uconn - 2

BCS appearances
Rutgers - 0
Uconn - 1

the reason basketball is brought up is because you refuse to acknowledge these numbers and basketball further strengthens Uconn's argument that our athletic department's accomplishments, including football, puts Rutgers to shame

RU has no athletic achievement. Apart from inventing the sport of football, we've done nothing! That much I can admit. And with that, we are terrible at everything and you clearly are better at everything else, including football. So you're right. You can stare at your MBB and WBB clippings all you want. The fact still remains that the lot if you lean to the rear, mostly, basketball and not football. That is your main focus and it always will be. As you've said before, football drives the bus. Yet you bring up your bb credentials, and it still has gotten you no where.

RU didn't invent football. 100% myth. Must be nice to be living a lie for all these years.
 
Quick question for our delightful Rutgers fans.


Why is there absolutely no energy around your program after the Big 10 invite?

It's hard to believe how dead Rutgers is after getting thrown a life raft.

Your football team is terrible. Your basketball team is an embarrassment.

What's your excuse? Is someone posting under the name Coach Flood going to blame Coach Flood?
 
Ahhh. you gotta be a premium member for that.

And this is why RU fans on this board are a waste. Look, we're all in recognition that you are on the out and lucky to be doing that. UConn fans are insanely jealous because we're stuck here. But instead of being absolute idiots, why don't you please answer the question that's been posed to all of you folks multiple times, by different posters....

Besides being in a massive DMA and great recruiting location, why was RU chosen to be in the B1G?

This is a serious question that I'd love to hear a response to. After reading this thread I haven't seen a reason posted once. Don't waste your time responding with some garbage like "UConn has won all these championships and look where it got them". That doesn't answer the question. I already have a feeling I know the reason why you are all avoiding the question like the plague but please, any of you RU fans, feel free to answer the above question.
 
Too many things to list so here are a few articles to get you started. The truth of the matter is if UCONN was so sexy it would have been scooped up a long time ago by some conference. There is a reason why you don't have a big date to the prom....you think you're hotter than you really are. All the hot girls got scooped up fast! As a business man, do you bring in a product based solely on historical performance or do you bring in a product that has a GREAT future potential? Look at our attendance each year, it's been rising nonstop.....how about yours?

Have you been to an RU game recently? You see the atmosphere and the attendance? RU has the most ridiculous potential out of any teams doing the conference reshuffling. Stadium will be packed to the brim going forward. Recruits will come. The sleeping giant is finally waking up. UCONN on the other hand....small high school stadium, poor attendance and terrible recruiting grounds. There is nothing to be gained from your addition to the B1G. Bro, let me be honest and say this again....if you added value you would have been scooped up a LONG LONG LONG time ago. Even the ACC isn't taking you. It's all about the money and uconn "aint" bringing "nothin" to the table when it comes to football. Basketball YES, Football NO. Football drives bus.

How is your AAU membership by the way? Do you travel as well as RU does? I don't think so.

Here is a short clip of last year's game AT TEMPLE. What chant do you hear on TV at OUR AWAY GAME? It's called a fan base.

The one good thing about Conference Realignment. At least there is no more week where I have to suffer through reading the delusions of Rutgers fans here.

You'll miss us so called "trolls". We fill up your board and we fill up your stadium. It's fun for the both of our fan bases.

I actually fish that once in a while one of you guys came to our board talking smack.

No it's not fun at all. It's boring, terrible and
tiresome.

You might be having fun but you also believe the nonsense you spew - so your judgment is a bit questionable.

Not to denigrate anyone on our board who does this but I find folks from other schools who come here to talk trash to be among the biggest losers society has to offer.

Besides anyone who goes to your board to talk smack is banned almost immediately. The RU Internet community is a cesspool that is universally hated by everyone.

So thanks for the invite, but no thanks.

If you win (and there is a good possibility of this) then the victory will be that much sweeter so you can rub it in all our faces.

A: no interest
B: like you clowns would stick around if you lose

I'm not sure why Rutgers fans can't seem to understand that the reason they got the B1G invite had nothing to do with their athletic department's success (which is nonexistent) and pretty much everything to do with their location.

I'm also not sure why they're so worried about the reasoning behind the B1G invite. Your team got a golden ticket - just hope they don't piss it away.

The Rutgers fans on this board are as dumb as their athletic department is incompetent.
 
Coach Flood said:
You boys better be ready..the word on the street is that a ton of RU fans are coming. When you guys played us last year maybe about 5 UCONN fans came so we will definitely put you to shame in that dept. :)

Statistical proof that more people would rather come to CT than go to NJ....
 
Both schools will fill their stadiums in the B1G, if only because of the alums from the other schools. We were packed against Michigan. If our attendance is down most of that has to do with lackluster opponents (in some cases more than our lackluster play).

And your storied program is a 2.5 point favorite against a terrible team when you act like this will be a home game for you. Wow. That's great. We may only have 20k there this weekend. But it will be 20k drunk and rowdy fans. And I can only hope that our team responds and sends you all back to NJ with a taste of whoop ass in your mouths.

If not, gloat. For now. I'll stop down next year or whenever my Badgers come to town and roll you like Hadley did Bogs in Shawshank.
 
Cool, I'll be seeing you in Piscataway in November then. Be sure to buy your tickets early....they will be expensive.

Rutgers hopes to have a title somewhere in the future. The title to their stadium. The only title they have a shot at.

Thank you very much for your interest in Connecticut athletics.
 
I really try to be nice but UCONN fans on this board are stinking of jealousy that we're in the B1G. You guys need to continue to play well and hope to God that the ACC wants another team. That's your only hope 10 years from now. Yes your hoops and Olympic sports teams may be good. However, that is not what makes the money and brings in the TV dollars. You can throw as much mud at our football program as you want, the bottom line is that when we are in the top 25 we bring home the bacon when it comes to TV sets and that equals mega bucks for our conference. Our sports programs have been bad because we haven't had financial support from our state like other schools have had. The B1G will change that for us and the next 10-20 years our campus is going to look unbelievable. Meanwhile you'll still be playing in that soda can of a stadium built on an airport.

What a loser.

Edit: Did you just claim to be a top 25 program? LOL.

You do absolutely nothing. The big 10 wants their network on TV's near your campus and that's it. Let's be honest.
