I’ve watched the games, on TV or live. I listened on the radio. Each time, I’d watch in disappointment as, even in the best cases, we’d snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Blown leads or blow-outs, Rutgers would find a way to lose.

For the first time in recent history, they were playing a late October football game, and people cared. The game had meaning.
