The Rutgers football team hosts number-23 South Florida tonite in Big East action. Both teams are 6-2 overall; USF is 2-2 in league, R-U 1-2. The Scarlet Knights are one-point underdogs heading in BUT it’s Rutgers playing a Big East home game on ESPN on a Thursday night. AND the Scarlet Knights have won three straight Big East home games on nationally-televised Thursday night games…twice over Louisville and once over South Florida. In fact, R-U has beaten USF three straight times…and although the Bulls come in with a fine freshman quarterback in B-J Daniels AMD a very good defensive line led by George Selvie…I pick the Rutgers Scarlet Knights to continue their Thursday night magic and become bowl eligible with their seventh win…beating South Florida 28-21.

Rah, rah, sis, boom, bah–GO TDJ!!!
P.S.–fix the clock–right now it is 10:14–not 3:14
Good call Bruce. RU will win tonight with its defence(again) and its running game. I think the wind and cold will effect the USF players tonight.
Rutgers 19
USF 16
Does anyone know what hotel Erin Andrews in penned up in tonight?
BTW.. that clock has been off for 2 years.
Well its 6:56 pm now and as I look forward to the start of this contest; I am challenged to pick a clear cut favorite–especially so in a competitive league–one has to wonder how long we can sustain our streak against USF. They obviously appear strong on offense this year and, of course, they have the big names on the defensive side–I just cannot take my scarlet glasses off tonight and I will continue to suck on the Kool-aid–forget the pragmatic thoughts–I am going to predict a commanding win for RU–let’s go with 31-14…offensive line of RU controls the line of scrimmage and away we go!
