Here's a game summary, for the first time in  awhile Rutgers went over the 300 yard mark in total offense on Saturday against Wisconsin in a 31-17 loss, which for Rutgers, is highly competitive, in a game in which Badger qb Alex Hornibrook was knocked out.  The Scarlet Knights rank second to last of 130 college teams in total offense.

And their yardage per game offense is actually a slight improvement over a year ago. But they still average 267 yards less per game than Alabama. So......just use your imagine about what might happen this weekend in Piscataway.

That's stupid.  Traveling out of town that day and was planning on watching the game at noon before leaving. Now I'll likely miss the entire game but I guess if I have to miss watching one game live, this would be the game.

Yeah, it is painful listening to him call a game. At the stadium they'll put together a first half highlight reel toward the end of halftime along with the radio call and I just can't help but cringe. He often provides little information during the actual play (and then it's usually done so in a very rushed manner) and on at least one occasion didn't even mention who was the recipient of a pass, just that it was completed.

It's obvious he's out of his element and is doing his best but the powers that be have to recognize that they are doing a disservice to their listeners and Jim.

and i didn't mind it so much when it was his first year doing it.  we all have a learning curve.  but what are we now, year 4?  doing even a decent p-b-p isn't like asking him to land the space shuttle on the moon.

put a sign in front of him:

who  -  how (pass/run) - what distance gained or attempted.   

answer those 3 every time, throw in what side of the field it was and you'd at least get the basics covered.

We really need the starters to rest in the entire second half. Let's hope it's 45-0 nothing at halftime.

My travel schedule wouldn’t let me catch a game in A2 this year, so my 12-year-old son and I are driving up from DC for this one. 3:30 pm is perfect—get up at a decent time, listen to a recorded book on the way to and fro (Ready Player One), and back just after normal bed time. I hope it’s a huge M crowd, like when we go see M play Maryland in college park.
