UNC-Rutgers
As I mentioned in my last post, I’m watching the UNC-Rutgers game.
Some thoughts, midway through the 3rd quarter:
- Rutgers is simply being out-played and out-coached. They don’t look prepared and they aren’t executing. The look flat. They are leaving receivers wide open and can’t get pressure on the QB. Just awful. I wonder if Greg Schiano is wishing he’d taken one of those big time offers he was rumored to have gotten in the off-season.
- UNC will be a force in the ACC. Butch Davis may even have them competing for a title this year, given the sad state of their conference. They played a lot of youg guys last year who are now developing into solid players and in some cases studs.
- Rutgers fans started filing out of the stadium during the 3rd quarter. That just shows you what a little bit of winning will do to the fan base and expectations. You don’t have to be Alabama or Michigan with a tradition of winning to have raised expectations. Even lowly Rutgers can raise the expectations of fans to unrealistic heights.
