No cheating...

I want to say we flirted with 30 against Iowa the year before they got good, but I highly doubt that ended near 30.

One of the Rice teams suffocated Pitt similarly to what we saw tonight, holding them under 40. I don't think it was by 30 though. I want to say it was something like 61-38.

Maybe there was a win over DePaul that broke 30 somewhere in there.

I think we smoked USF at home in Waters's last year. But by 30?

VT 2004 at home? (before we lost not one but two games to them later that year?)

It wouldn't shock me if we had to go back to the A-10 to find it.

I don't know if it was the last 30 point win, but yes, on February 15, 2004 we beat VT by 33 points, 85-52. That game featured a 30-0 run. VT then proceeded to beat us twice by a total of four points.

RU beat SHU 81-49, I think it was 1998
I'm looking back through sports-reference. It's late, so I may have missed one...

VT 2004
SHU 1998
Before that we have to go back to 1989, where we had 2, Joes and Bonnies.
Before that, 1981? Was the EAA even a conference?

St Bonavenure was everybodys whipping boy in the late 80s to early 90s. I think we had close one with them with a packed crowd in the 90 NIT season and everyone was like wtf is going on

Yeah seriously looks like even Littlepage teams smacked them around. But also lost at least one. That must have been a dark day.

I think that VT game in 2004 was 34-3 RU early on.

yea hit was insane, almost too easy, I wonder what our biggest lead was.

I love games like that when RU gets out to some ridiculous lead, I think the Temple game right before the UNLV Sunday game in 1990, RU jumped on them early 18-2 and it was all she wrote, two days later they lost to UNLV I think 114-75

Speaking of the Bonnies, didn’t we once have under 10 against them at halftime in the early
1980sand finish in the low 30s in a low scoring game for both teams ? Can someone look that up?
Probably went 4 corners on us

I remember a game against West Virginia we jumped out to a 20-2 lead and Rashod Kent stared down Gale Catlett every trip down the court for not recruiting him (he was from West Virginia)

I was sure this was the largest conference win for Rutgers until reading that it was the biggest since Virginia Tech. I have to admit, I don't remember the VTech game.

EAA was the Eastern Athletic Association but was better known by its nickname the Eastern Eight. The Eastern Eight morphed into the Atlantic 10.

The 37 points by MSU was the fewest Rutgers has allowed in a conference game since giving up 30 to St. Bonaventure on Jan. 25, 1982. RU lost, 30-29.
