Beating the dead horse - the Blackshear hard feelings are much more about him bailing out the morning of a game rather than the Sunday before, when the staff could've game planned around it.
Stop - there was no game planning that season. Might have been the worst defense in Rutgers history. We couldn’t execute simple tackles.

RU - 32.
VT - 16
VT apparently has a decent FG kicker, give them 1 TD and 3 fgs.
RU finally gets a defensive scoop n score or pic 6.

I feel a different vibe with the team this year than the prior 7-8 years. No drive ending motion penalties, QB calm and composed, not wasting timeouts because of players on field, sidelines seem organized, swarming and not missing tackles, players communicating with each other, Gregg looks more relaxed, Gregg letting coaches handle their jobs, etc
Just seems very different in a positive way. If right it bodes well going forward. Tomorrow will help tell us more.

I am so glad I do everything I can not to read the in game thread ever. I sat there on Sat night and during the 2nd and 3rd qtr- I knew our thread may have been the saddest thing ever.
I knew this because at that time and one of the most half full fans you will meet- I was cursing the team out in my theater room myself.
You should see the Mets in game threads. Lolol. Talk about a team that has underperformed

I suspect we will see Greg highly focused tomorrow against VT . If the team is focused and incrementally has improved again this week I expect us to win. We are not a great team as of yet but we are an improving B1G program.yes we should be favored and we should win at home. Good teams win at home more times than not .

As always, I reserve the right to modify my prediction as we get closer to game time.

I can’t gamble because I just want to win and would hate to ruin my day if we get a good win one day but miss covering by a point.

Who wins? Dpgru off by 2 points on RU score. RUbytheshore off by 1 point, too generous to VT. I get some sort of consolation prize.

Rubytheshore gets first cut of the turkey, Dpgru gets second cut, and I'll fight it out for the neck with Cousin Eddie.
