RU -7.5 @ Fordham

[read option]

Decent number for us considering we’re on the road.

Fordham has played nobody and just lost to a Maine team which was on a 15-game losing streak.

Gut tells me it’s a tight one, but I don’t see us losing.

Interesting test for the team. First game of the year we are road favorites.

Must win for any chance for a winning season.

I won’t pick a score, but I think we win handily. Our team is hungry!

Really am not understanding why people find this game interesting or close. After watching the Maine game I’d be SHOCKED if they keep it with 12

Seems like no matter who we play there are a bunch of people with the "don't sleep on this team" or "this game will be tough" posts but unless we play like complete dog poo this game should be a beat down

I've posted that this could be a trap game. But I am really expecting to win by 15+.

Classic reverse jynx. Like your style

We’ve all played the “fool me once” game. More than once.

I don't believe in jinxes.

But this has Trap Game written all over it. Rutgers just ran a gauntlet and is looking forward to SH next week, so the players could come out flat, assuming this is an easy win. Fordham, on the other hand, has this game circled, as it is their only high-major game of the season, and they're playing at home.

Nonetheless, Fordham doesn't look to be strong this year, and I trust Pike will have our team ready to play. So while it could be a trap game, it is more likely a beat down.

And probably last and only

If the Seton Hall game was Monday I could see the team looking past Fordham, but with a week to prepare for SH this has to be a non factor.

Maybe those people who post those things are on to something. 25 years of watching this program can lead you to some dark places.

 

[MV9000]

eating my words on this one. Flat out embarrassing. I guess along with a few of us, the team took the competition for granted as well.

Lesson learned, my bad.
