Have a feeling we are going to give Rutgers their first conference win. Sure hope I'm wrong.

Should we be without Finke, that very well be the case.
Assuming we have the full squad, I expect us to take this one
What exactly qualifies as a full squad at this point?
It'll be pretty much be impossible to lose this game. Rutgers is a historically bad B1G team. We're not good but we're far from that.

I watched the game yesterday vs Sparty. Eeesh. Thought about this fanbase having to deal with THAT mess. Flashes of bright spots, few and far between, but the negatives are a bit overwhelming.

Well, we've become something of a slump-buster for teams. Hope it doesn't happen against Rutgers though.

Who was smoking crack when they put that together!?!?!

That's a whole new level of marketing. It succeeded in one area - it differentiates their brand from the competition. Yikes.

There will be a chug-off of store-brand orange or red soda at half time. Winner is the one that pukes last.

I think this is what is suggested you do before attempting to watch this game.
I am utterly slain.

Can't get it together, and here I am at work. Doggonnit.
A matchup of two really bad teams. I'm going to try to force myself to watch the whole thing, but even as a UI fan since the '60s, it won't be easy. I'll have to hide the remote somewhere to keep the temptation to channel surf away.
I think we can actually win this one (maybe, we'll see).
Groce said tonight on his radio show that Nunn and Finke were unable to workout/practice today and that they are both questionable for Wednesday night.
That win was against a top 5 Wisconsin team last season. Though I think that that may have been without Traevon Jackson for the Badgers.
