Cats win by 10+.

We avoid bad turnovers, Hilinski shines, our defense regains a semblance of decency, and our seniors secure a season-changing Homecoming victory.

Cats win! Cats win! Cats win!

Wow….Usually the glass is very full with purple Kool-Aid. I am usually the pessimist. But, I will say:

NU 27
Rutgers 20

You went full homer and the team proved you right.

I agree this could be a season-changing win; team just looks a mile better than it has in every other game.

I am no homer. I tell it like it is. That’s why my handle is CatManTrue.

I had a nebulous feeling before MSU. A bad feeling before Duke. And a really bad feeling before Nebraska.

I had a really good feeling before this game, and that leads me to my next prediction:

I have a good feeling about our trip to Ann Arbor. Even if we don’t win, the Cats will compete and keep us proud.

It’s a brand new season, fellas! Turn those frowns upside down.

It is possible that the general anticipation of the Cats getting boatraced by a banged up, 80-somethingth ranked Rutgers offense at home, on homecoming, might have been a slight overreaction to the Nebraska game.

Yes. Our fanbase was negative nabobing so much that I had to zag.

I don't know about boatraced, but I think many of us weren't sure how likely it was that we could get things figured out this fast given the problems we'd seen against Nebraska/Duke/Michigan State.

Hopefully past 2 weeks, JON/Fitz figured something out on how to make the defense work and it carries forward.
