Rutgers is six and oh.
Read that again. Six wins and zero, zippo, zilch in the loss column. The last time that happened was in 1975-76, the year—led, ironically, by Eddie Jordan—Rutgers went to the Final Four. The undefeated season.
That’s pretty remarkable.
And recently, in the comments here, on Twitter and on message boards, I’ve started to see some expectations rise to crazy levels. Part of that is on the whole, Rutgers runs good stuff on the court. But maybe the fact that football had an awful season and women’s hoops hasn’t found a win yet is playing in here too.
