Rutgers Comes Back, clouds title picture

Yes, Rutgers actually did come back from a 25-7 deficit to beat # 3 Louisville 28-25 tonight. An amazing comeback at a school that does not have this kind of football tradition.

Unfortunately for Rutgers, they likely will not be getting a shot at the national championship game in January. The Scarlet Knights may finish 12-0, and would have to beat West Virginia to do it But their profile would not be better than a 1-loss Texas, Florida, or even the loser of the impending Ohio State-Michigan showdown. Rutgers could wind up an undeafeated team without a national title to show for it, just like the 1993 and 2004 Auburn teams, and the 1994 Penn State team.
