Been waiting to hear your guys' take. So true about the hype about what the guy's FG personal best was and warm-ups. Way too much made of that. Also crazy to rush 7 on that play. Just really still hard to get over. Great watch as always.
I watched Moczulsski in warm-ups. He missed everything from 30 yards, except one. There's no way he's hitting a 58 harder into the wind after three unsuccessful plays and a penalty. If you watched Jai Patel, he purposely kicked low line drives to avoid wind effects. Btw, I'm in 124 and Moczulaski was right in front of me.
I'm right behind ya'. 2021 was bad. Same weekend lost to Maryland 40-16 and a bowl bid and lost to UMass in basketball, having also lost to Lafayette and DePaul all the same week. But, we didn't have to lose to Illinois on Saturday.
Same age Ed, definitely one of the worst for all the reasons mentioned here! I’m “beaten down” too Richie!!! Damn it, how long do I have to live before removing the “long suffering” prefix before describing us RU fans?!?!?!
@@Digger5678 I must admit, I think I was more depressed as a teen when we lost to Michigan in the Final Four in 1976. We must have missed 20+ points in the paint. I expressed my existential angst by going to my local courts and shooting baskets for hours on end.
@@Scarlet-RogueSportsyeah had the “pleasure” of being in our student section (student center ticket line “marshal” privilege), it was rough!! In hindsight it was just too big a moment for us non-blue bloods to be thrown into.
In FB, we got Savage-to-Browned by Illinois. The problem was not the last call; it is that Ru had no pass defense. The BB program is designed to make Harper and Bailey lottery picks rather than winning games. They made too many mistakes.
The stadium noise pollution is unbearable! Who decides this madness? The players too must hate it. Grow up whoevet it is that produces this crap. The stadium is no longer enjoyable. Even hear it over the radio and on TV. PLEASE STOP. Fans, playets, and coaches drserve better. Surprised Schiano doesnt intervene. Maybe he tried. GROW UP who ever is accountable!
Rebounding isn’t just the center position. The guards and wings didn’t rebound. That’s unacceptable. Why are you so surprised they are struggling? They play 3 freshmen and have almost no rebounders on this team. All the hype about Dylan and Ace has totally blinded everyone. You’re blaming Big E for defense? Have you not watched R team the last few years? They defend primarily with guards and wings.
Schiano will never admit a mistake...." in hindsight " is as close as you'll get from him. Shame it had to be such an egregious error that it killed our chance to go to the Citrus. I'll be shocked if we beat MSU Saturday since RU has nothing to play for.
I think that there have been tons of worst weekends for men's basketball & football at Rutgers. Take Nov18-19 2022. They lost to Temple 72-66 and Penn State 55-10. At least, they knew they were still bowling after the Illinois loses. Additionally, both as a player and as a coach I would rather be able to say 'oh, even though we lost on the last play, we did have that tremendous comeback at the 1:08 mark.' What could you say after the PSU Football loss in 2022? There were plenty of good things that happened during the Illinois game as compared to the seasons 2015 to 2022. Ten years from now I am hoping RU remembers having an 8-5 season that was the 2nd in a series of 11 straight bowl games. I also believe (not just hope) that most players won't even remember the KSU loss by the end of the season? BTW, how losses does KSU have?
As a Rutgers fan since late 1960's - and more recent years listening to games and watching on cable - what is this with the long, loud horns just before a play? Should be banned in Football

I am 67 years old. This isn't the worst weekend in RU Sports believe me.

In the modern Era definitely the worst!!

One more thing.
I used to be one of the people who didn't mind the music or horn, but yeah its been terrible and redundant now. Change it up.
Remove that thing ! It’s defaning , redundant and out dated. That freaking horn operator should be fired !!

Great recap. Disappointing ending but good reporting. Illinois couldn't have had another play if Ryan went down.

I have absolutely no issue with the play call. It was 4 and 13!
I listen to every episode of you guys, just have to skip this one after the weekend. Too soon to talk about the disasterous weekend.

I'm a Rutgers fan. I can only laugh.

We're winning this weekend vs. Mich. State.
Miserable weekend everything going the wrong way. Just bounce back this week with basketball and football.
