This week in Rutgers talk
The shows spent the week talking about Rutgers' rough start after losing to UMass in week one. The talk keeps coming back to how badly the team got dominated physically, which has people questioning where the program is headed. There's disagreement on what to expect against Boston College, with some seeing it as a trap game and others liking Rutgers as an underdog pick.
