This game is killing me!
I want Rutgers to win because they have such a great story, and I want that coach in Coral Gables next year. Seeing them in the BCS and shredding another conference team would be great.
At the same time, though, getting Louisville in the title game would be great, especially if they have the chance to take out the stupid Luckeyes who should still be stripped of their undeserved National Championship.

FG By Ito of Rutgers! They now lead with 13 seconds left thanks to the off-sides by Louisville.

That was a game man! Im happy for Rutgers, I was rooting for them purely because fo the story and the Underdog factor!!
Just got back from a pretty lame celebration party at a friends apartment. Lot's of pizza and one loud girl who said Pitcher when she wanted to say "picture". So much for stereotypes about New Jersey being false. ;)
GO RU! TOP 5!!!

Their story is the biggest comeback/ underdog story of the year. They haven't done this EVER as a program or seen success for 30 years ! It is good for college football, but I'm starting you early, they will get punked in any championship game picture. The big schools, Ohio St., Mich, Florida, Auburn, USC, etc will get the nod. They will find a big school with one loss before they go to Rutgers. :(

i'm so hoping they now lose to west virginia so that arkansas can hopefully beat tenn , LSU and win their sec conf. title game over florida and have a shot at OSU/Michigan winner for the national title, but that's a pretty tall task.
hopefully arkansas is up to the challenge.

I know that all the way. But I'm still holding out for a #3 ranking at seasons end. I'm totally jumping on the bandwagon, but in my defense, they just built the bandwagon... and I have a tattered old Scarlet Knights sweatshirt in my closet. ;) GO RU!

what a comeback...that crowd was storming the field like ants at the end. Eto would have been hung on a line if he actually missed that game winning field goal.
Rice is pretty good. Seems like they used #23 in alot of different ways in that game. I like that catch from the flat where he ran for some big yards to get them into field goal position in the end. He really isn't that bulky of a fullback that we are so accustomed to seeing in the NFL.
Impressive comeback win though!
