This team was the "door mat" of Big East for years. It's great to see the "underdog" come through with a season to remember. That's what sports is all about...teams like the 2006 Rutgers Scarlet Knights!

Pretty incredible. If they win out they belong in the National Championship game. If they lose we wind up with another BCS disaster. If only college football had a playoff system I would be such a huge fan.

Lou Holtz should not be in high definition.

They should move way up in the top 10 for next week, but how far will they go up in the BCS poll? If they beat West Virginia, they should get a BCS game.
People knock Big East Football, but these two teams are as good as the Boise States' or any other non Big Ten/SEC/ACC league team. Let's give the Rugters' and Louisivilles' credit.

Hoping for #8 or 9 next week. May travel to West Viriginia for the final game of the year.

To make a BCS bowl game - you must finish in the top 12, no team with four weeks to go in the season that is between 6 and 12 has made the title game in BCS history. The Trojans, Gators, Longhorns need to get beat and Rutgers needs to finish undefeated. Again, the computer will hold the key.

They can't make the title game, but they can absolutely make a BCS bowl which is what the goal should be. Pretty freaking exciting.

Are the voters really that stubborn? Are some of them not going to say that we vastly underrated this team and they deserve to move up to Louisville's place in our rankings? If not, that is pretty stupid.
