If they were in the AAC or ACC they could prolly win 9-10 games every so often.

They went 6-6 the one year they slummed it in the AAC, didn't see anything that said they'd be better.

So people stop asking, the "Bi" in my username is a reference to my love for the two greatest collegiate sports programs in the world, the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Marshall Thundering Herd.

Their record in the better Big East begs to differ. I think the 6-6 record that year speaks more about Kyle Flood being terrible than it does anything else. They were solidly 8-10 win team in the twilight of the Big East, which they could and should have had better records based on talent.

I'm not sure this year's Rutgers would have won 6 games in the AAC or maybe any other conference. They were bad

The worst Michigan State team in 25 years beat them 49-0. It cannot be emphasized enough.

UConn, ECU, and Cincinnati were all also really bad so if we're generous and say they take two of those three, then got lucky and drew SMU or Tulane as a West team, that'd have put them at 5-7 and I think in a APR bowl slot.

I'd rather have Navy.

Your state has Flint and Detroit. Michigan and really the entire Midwest is a gigantic shithole.

Rutgers isn't over matched in the Big Ten, it's a garbage conference. The old Big East was harder. What they are is Flood wrecked the program.

Detroit is at least interesting and has people interested in making it better. Also everything to the north and west of those cities is wildly different from them.

You missed out.

- 22 yards for Rutgers.
- 0 first downs for Rutgers until the fourth.
- Michigan went for two when it was clear that Rutgers was actually a secret division III team.
- this happened when Rutgers got their first first down, in the middle of the fourth


Rutgers owns because we're just gonna get endless stupid box scores like this one.

It was the best at the top, which is all most people pay attention to, but also by far the worst of the major conferences at the bottom. It's super unbalanced. You still have to count Rutgers and Purdue, unfortunately.

It had four really really good teams, a couple borderline top 25 teams (Iowa and I guess Nebraska) and the rest was pretty loving bad
