In fairness, alot of us didnt actually believe it would happen. They may have just had trouble believing the b1g was actually gonna expand

No,

They laughed at the thought of RU being in the B1G.

No,

They laughed at the thought of RU being in the B1G.

Unless they were considering us purely as a TV market, then the laughter is somewhat understandable. There’s no reason for football fans of other schools to know much about RU besides football (such as academics or even that we fit in the Big Ten university-profile-wise).

And RU is not considered a big time football program by anybody but RU fans. A few good seasons under Schiano (part one) isn’t going to sway non-RU fan’s minds.

To get respect, we need to win something. And to get more than momentary respect, we need to win consistently. Just how it is.

Hopefully we can get there under Schiano part two.

On the flipside of things:
Rutgers is getting mad love from Indiana fans.
How about that Rutgers-Purdue game?

They literally have people saying we are the best team in the B1G and going to win the national championship. If only our own fans would all get on board
