K.. here's the skinny on today's Rutgers match-ups

WR - Carroo is M Thomas tier - he's outstanding... but he's hurt (ankle).. he'll still make plays... very aggressive when ball is in the air.. think Devin Smith
Rest of their WRs.. they will get open... but they will drop easy catches.. we'll get an INT when a great pass hits one of them in the facemask or shoulder pad and pops up
TE - very good group; they can catch and block
RB - lots of little dudes that will gain yards; they'll use 3 or 4; they can also catch screens
QB - ya never know... has been taking care of the ball but how can anyone forget he downed the ball on 4th down in final minute vs MSU; he'll throw into coverage; he's accurate but he ain't seen this pressure yet
OL - not bad but tuff to judge too... OT Lumpkin is big and strong but our DEs will show him a quickness he ain't prepared for
this will be an interesting match-up today... cuz they seem to do OK vs pass rush and can spring the little dudes on runs
I just don't know if they've seen OSU quickness.. don't think we'll miss Shutt as much because Hill will bring quickness and I suspect that will cause problems

DL - ineffective
LBs - talented; they will make plays and only time there will be pressure is if these guys are coming but then, DBs are exposed; Longa and Gaines are good players
DBs - young..young.. young... couple aren't bad.. Safety is decent; best DB Austin is hobbled; Hester is OK.. will be gashed for 400 yards in the air

ST - kickers are OK; return game is serious; Janarion Grant KR/PR is excellent; coverage teams are dangerous.. they block kicks.. punts.. FGs..

Everyone is gonna score
M Thomas gets 2 TDs
Miller gets at least 1, 2 or 3 (they have nothing for Brax.. he could score 5 today
Jaelen gets at least one
Zeke gets 2 or more... LONG runs but he's only gonna get to play first half anyway

73-14
play the over
Urb will start calling off the dogs to start 2nd half when it's 38-7
he'll really call off the dogs in Q4 when it's really bad

Cow Tippers comin' to NJ. Rutgers is playing an overrated team which almost lost to NIU. Think about that for a minute. A loss to NIU would have paled in comparison to Appy State. A National Champion team losing to the likes of NIU. OMFG! APPY STATE! APPY STATE! APPY STATE!

SAT night tOSU is playing a team which lost in the final minute against two quality opponents. RU could have a 5-1 record. PSU was a blowout due to the fact that Rugers' head Coach wasn't there.

Rutgers took out #2 Louisville 11/11/2005 which put RU on the Golden path to becoming bonifide. SAT night vs TOSU, TOSU gonna get a BEAT DOWN at the BIRTHPLACE OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL. And RUTGERS, not tOSU, will OWN all and future bragging rights of the B1G East.

Grab your banjos and your first-cousin as your date, get in your Ford pickup trucks and HEAD ON OVER to a state high with some of the highest Per Capita Incomes in the country. Heck, gas is cheap in NJ to help you on your way home. If your truck makes it that far.

I know it's hard to play on the road at night. But I know that can add some motivation. Granted we had revenge in mind but I loved the attitude in Blacksburg to start the year.

"It's a big game for you. It's in your place. At night. It's been circled on your calendar for a long time. But we brought our long straws. And we are here to drink your milkshake."

Bucks big. With bad intentions. 52-17.
