It is never fun to lose and yesterday’s 34-32 defeat to Minnesota was no exception. Rutgers outplayed the Golden Gophers the final three quarters of the game, with the exception of special teams. Several critical mistakes were the difference, but there were positives to come out of yesterday’s loss as well. After last week’s dreadful 24-7 loss to Illinois, it became clear this season is now about building for the future. There were several players with little experience and multiple years of eligibility remaining who played key roles in yesterday’s game. That is encouraging is and something to be hopeful for.
