From the Cheap Seats: 4 Thoughts on East Carolina

The Scarlet Knights sit 6-0 on the season after taking care of business against a good offensive team in East Carolina. Aaron covered the 61-47 win here.

Defense, Defense, Defense: Rutgers gave up 21 points in the first half and 27 points in the second half. That is hard to do. The Scarlet Knights have completely bought in on the defensive end, slowing down a team that averaged over 70 points per game. At one point, Corey Sanders read a play as the Carolina point guard crossed midcourt and stepped in front of his path and disrupting the entire play.
