Unfortunately for Rutgers, they will likely lose to Louisville and West Virginia, and could drop one to one of the other Big East schools. Hopefully they can use this getting nationally ranked to keep getting good players to want to go to Rutgers. :thumbsup:

I absolutely despise West Virginia but I'd be idiotic to say that they aren't a top 5 team in the nation.We'll see on November 2nd.I've become a believer that Slaton is a top 3 running back in the nation.I've always liked Adrian Peterson and he's basically undisputed #1, Slaton, Kenny Irons, Marshawn Lynch, Jason Hart fight for the next few spots.WVU has an insane duo of Pat White and Slaton both of whom can run and Pat White is pretty good at passing the ball as well (72% passing this year).

Had Michael Robinson been playing that game, Penn State would have been up 14 at the half.
