Yet UCONN is the team that is ONCE again sitting out the Bowl Season....counting the days until Spring practice. Even in one of our worst years in the last decade, we are playing Notre Dame in a bowl game.

You guys, well, enjoy watching us on TV. That's the difference in the two programs.

Why would we bother to watch? Is it going to be a train wreck? Can you BOTH lose?

The difference is that after UConn's 0-4 start and coaching change, the fans resigned themselves to a "rebuilding" year. At current, I feel better about UConn's future prospects on the field going forward with Coach Diaco and no 2013-14 bowl bid, than I do about Rutgers with Coach Flood and a bowl game. Many Rutgers fans were hoping for a loss in the final game. Coach Flood basically guaranteed his return with a bowl bid. That means Rutgers' initial foray into BigTen waters is with a mediocre coach and a limited ceiling.

The ceiling has not yet been set for Coach Diaco, but early returns have been positive.

But as you found out on November 30..............geography doesn't win football games.

Big East, AAC, Big Ten.........Rutgers will continue to be Rutgers. And Rutgers will always suck and embarass themselves every single chance they get.

Jimmy, you may want to express yourself more clearly. I think the personal note helped, though.

God bless you man....

After being embarrassed by UCONN's worst team in a decade you come to this board and talk .

You must be in a very special place in your own mind to justify doing that. Bat crazy, but a special place just the same.

Buggsy, did you ever get an opportunity to correct the NJ press and all the websites concerning the fact that they claim that Rutgers gives away up to 10,000 football tickets for certain games? That's an error that should be addressed.

 

[Irishfan]

RutgersAl, your original post has some pretty good information, but did you really say that Tommy Rees "makes few mistakes"? Go to any ND message board and they will tell you that they blame Rees' mistakes for three of our four losses. Most noticeably against Michigan and Pitt. Although his 2 interceptions in the first two minutes of the Oklahoma game (one, a pick 6) was also pretty bad.

I'd say that's generous. I'd say RU is the cheap, desperate prostitute used by the B1G to get f-cked by everyone to make them money.

That was harsh.......entirely accurate, but harsh just the same.....

 

[MattMang23]

I wouldn't mind being that prostitute though. She's well paid.

No matter how well payed they may be, a prostitute is never respected by their employers or clientele. What's sad is RU fans are, quite evidently, perfectly fine with this trade-off. It's all they have to tout, and they're surprisingly proud of it: the experience of getting railed by OSU and MU, while receiving the money those teams make by actually performing in the post-season. Exactly what they did in the Big East, only now they'll be f-cked by Buckeyes and Wolverines instead of Huskies and Oranges. Maybe that's why they're so happy about all this; they're so used to the role, they've grown to like it. A case of athletic Stockholm Syndrome, if you will.

 

[uconndogs]

In all seriousness, at UCONN athletics its about winning championships at both the conference and national levels, and doing so consistently. That's what our history has been....winning championships. It's what we know and what we expect. Does it happen all the time? No. But, our history is that of winning at the highest levels.

None of that exists at Rutgers. So, conference affiliation is all there is. "Hey man, we hang around with these guys.....we never win anything, but we're one of them." Rutgers fans should take a long hard look at Indiana, without the hoops. If that's their idea of fun then the BiG should be a duckk'n blast.

No. Their pre-eminent athletic program is fencing. 1949 National Champs, baby!!
