I wish them the best. I'm always one to root for the underdog. It also has something to do with that fact that I live in Big Ten country. The two best teams in the country this year are boith in the Big Ten IMO. The point will be re-affirmed if Michigan and Ohio State play a close one. So if Louisville wins, it will wreck any chance of a re-match for the national title.

Whose program has improved like Rutgers. I hope it's a close game (not like last year) but I don't see a let down this week for the Cardinals (unfortunately) But, a win tonight and a victory over W.V. in a few weeks and they SHOULD get a major bowl bid.

Glad to see Rutgers hanging tough....Cards should do the job tonite, but Rutgers continuing good play should indeed get them to a good bowl!

I'm an SEC guy myself
but the ppl who call in the radio shows and say:
"The SEC is the bay-ust, they should be playin' fer the national champeenship"
make Gomer Pyle sound like George Plimpton
the host had a point
The Big East is a BCS conference
if an undefeated team comes out of a BCS conference
and does not get in, why is that conference in the BCS?
OSU-Mich winner vs. U of L-Rutgers winner!

It should be that way, but the BCS rarely comes out right. It would only make sense to have two undefeated teams in the big game. But, then again...it's all about RATINGS!

if Louisville loses...it will be a mess:
Texas will feel it should go
the SEC winner will feel it should go
the USC-Cal winner will try to make their case
the OSU-Michigan loser will have a case as well
etc. etc.
prolly be a mess anyways

if rutgers beats wvu they win the big east and get the bcs game bid. might not be the championship game but a bcs game none the less.

Some wacky tie breakers involved no doubt. That game would be brutal to win, I'm not hopeful, but to have the shot.....

head of the big east was just on espn radio. if it ends in a 3-way tie or 2 team tie. team with the highest ranking at bowl bid time gets the bcs game bid.
