That shouldn’t be discounted. Looking at their schedules in the 70’s, it’s unbelievable this is a Big Ten school now. It’s not until the Big East that they really ran with the big schools of the northeast more regularly.

Not sure why Rutgers doesn't get much respect. The school has so much potential, but the athletic department has been plagued by horrible hires both administratively and athletically. Hopefully it's turned the corner. I understand Schiano's done a bang up job recruiting in-state talent. Locksley has as well. Of course the issue at both schools is coaching ability.
