Rutgers Trampled by Maryland 88-63...But It Was Much Worse Than That

Wherever Rutgers turned tonight, the trees of Maryland were there to wreak havoc!

This game was about as ugly as it can get. Or I hope that it was, because this was tough to take. It's not surprising that Rutgers was blown out by Maryland, the #3 team in the country. However, the manner in which they were beaten, bloodied and buried so early on was downright depressing. With only seven scholarship players available for tonight's game, Maryland's depth in the frontcourt obliterated Rutgers in every way. The scariest part is that Maryland's best player, Melo Trimble, had a tight hamstring and played just a few minutes in the first half, limiting him to only 4 points.
