This game scared the living daylights out of me since the summer, when it was announced as part of the non-conference schedule. It worried me even more after seeing FDU give Ohio State all they could handle in Columbus, losing by single digits. For much of the first half, my fears were justified, as FDU was off to a hot start and shooting over 50% from the field. The professor, Jerry Carino, agreed.
Finally getting healthy, FDU is much better than its 2-7 record would attest. Might be the 2nd-best team RU has faced so far.
