This game was a rollercoaster and I think I experienced every emotion that is possible during the course of a football game. So many thoughts, good and bad, as Rutgers suffers a gut wrenching loss to Iowa 14-7. Here are some brutally honest, off the cuff, knee jerk reactions to the Big Ten opener.
We went through the full spectrum of emotions on the bubble screen Janarion Grant caught and ran 77 yards down to the Iowa 5 yard line late in the 2nd quarter. What was a thrilling, spell binding run that turned to a horror scene when All-American Desmond King accidentally stepped on Grant’s leg/ankle at the end of the play.
