The Rutgers football team is at a crossroads. Lose today and our bowl hopes are pretty much dead. Win and hope is alive, putting the team back at .500 and notching their first conference win. Huge, huge game. Here are some links from the week to get you ready for kickoff.
The return of head coach Kyle Flood should provide an emotional lift for this team. They will need it, as it's common to have a letdown after playing so well against a top opponent in a losing effort. Look at Purdue, who played Michigan State down to the wire two weeks ago, only to get blown out at home against Minnesota last week.
