Game Three Preview: Rutgers @ Navy

Scarlet Surge
Date Posted: 9/18/08

This is a huge game for the Scarlet Knights. Coming off a dismal 44-12 loss to UNC, they need to jumpstart their season after starting 0-2. UNC could have a very good year, but as of right now, it needs to be viewed as a pretty bad loss for a team who is trying to build a dynasty in Piscataway.

We will see what happens, but I think Rutgers escapes with a victory here. Now, I don't think they'll trounce Navy by any means, but I have a feeling they'll win convincingly. Maybe this is what this football team needs? Some adversity. Maybe it needs to be viewed as the "underdog" or the "team that can't accomplish anything."

Rutgers 25 Navy 17. The Rutgers defense and offense finally come into their own, and they mix in a big play out of the special teams. Teel has a big game, and Courtney Greene finishes the game with 15 tackles, 1 sack, and 1 FF. Hey, it's just predictions.

Lets hope RU can get this victory! R...U...R...U!

On a side note, the game being on CBS CSN is a disappointment. I do indeed get that channel, but I know many Rutgers fans do not. Not only that, but I do not believe it is in High Definition. Pretty unfortunate. But, maybe in the local area they will put it on regular CBS, channel 2.

*I will also be doing live-blogging. That means I will be sharing my thoughts DURING THE GAME! Every 30 minutes or so I'll chime in with a few comments during the game, so basically if you are near a PC during the game, check it out here. Don't forget to leave comments too, haha.
