Ohio state vs Iowa this week? There's going to be some scoreboard watching in Piscataway this week!

Tough schedule coming up for the Big 10 teams I see. Gut feeling says it comes down to the remaining head to head games left. And unfortunately, I think the Big 10 will only get 1 bowl bid for the first time in years, so I pray that i don't finish second again this season...... lol

My season is looking pretty bleak, but if we get past the U this week.......
THE HYPE TRAIN WILL BE BACK BOYSSSSSS!!!

And here we all are as a happy family all together at 6-4 lol. Straight up winner of our head to head games wins the division...

Well arguably the biggest regular season game in Rutgers history this week against Ohio State. Loss ends any realistic playoff chance, but win would really jumpstart our stretch run. Hoping for a classic, and the MFN oddsmakers have it as even....... :)

Good Luck Rutgers!!! We won but Syracuse really beat us up. 6 injuries! We will be playing some injured guys because of how important this game is.

I think the magic number now is 1.....

One OSU win or RU+Iowa loss and that settles the division..... (and I may finish second..... FOR THE FIFTH FREAKING TIME) LOL

(Fact Check this all because I could have missed something...)

So, what you're saying is: we all have good but not great teams.

Or we are all equally bad teams :)
