Of course, there are the letdowns that come along with this time of the year. Some people are bummed because they’re going back to school (not me – I like to teach at the local college) and others are annoyed that the weather is changing (again, not me – I like the cold weather). But for fans of the Rutgers University football program, well, we’re annoyed for a different reason today.

Rutgers got absolutely rocked during their home opener today against Cincinnati…almost unacceptably so. The final score was 47 to 15, but I have to admit that after the first half I really didn’t waste any more of my time watching the blood bath. I think that so many of us in New Jersey remember the dream season that Rutgers had a few years ago and we hope to see that on the field each weekend. Well, that type of stuff doesn’t just “happen” though it does take a lot of hard work. I know that the football players are putting in their best efforts during practice and during the games – it’s evident! I mean you can see it during the games.

However, Cincinnati was just a much better and a much faster football team. It really was that overall team speed that I noticed the most when watching today’s game. But, that’s okay. The Scarlet Knights are hosting Howard University next weekend and we’re looking for a roaring comeback after today’s beat down!
