They’re embarrassing to every other school in the conference, and that includes Purdue.
Satire or not...pretty fucking true.

This was posted (and removed) earlier this morning. The OP thought it was real!
Good stuff and thanks for the satire heads up.

It clearly says Satire..... I just thought I would get negged to death.

Are we sure it's satire? Sounds pretty accurate to me.

As pointed out in the comments in the linked article, the author is a Iowa Hawkeyes guy. You remember Iowa, AKA "the team that only beat Rutgers by 7".

And they had to score late, after getting a TO in Buttgers territory.

Many are praising the swift decision by Jim Delany, who was criticized heavily for expanding the B1G to New Jersey in the first place. The Big Ten teams remaining on Rutgers’ schedule this year will be given an extra bye week since going through the motions of playing Rutgers is a glorified bye week anyway.
If only this were real, if only....
That being said, I am now kind of curious to see how Illinois' walk-ons will fare against Rutgers' first string. I am thinking that game is closer, but perhaps a team that has suffered two straight weeks of the football version of saturation bombing can't even manage Illinois now.

This was a bad satirical piece. First, you don't write "(Satire)" in the title. 2nd, it has to be somewhat believable, or stick to real life in one way or another. Delany admitting a mistake would never ever happen. Just poorly executed imo.
Thanks for the share anyways OP

B1G? They are an easy win, they are a Power 5 school, and we'd just have to replace them with a game against someone like Furman, Presbyterian, etc., that we'd end up agreeing to pay $1 million to. Seems like we have a pretty good set up like it is. Rutgers thinks we are a rivalry game and they allow us to "tune up" with them on the schedule each year.

...would be a Power 5 school by definition.

And that's the nicest thing I've ever said about Rutgers.

I just wanted to say I was LMFAO as Michigan beat Rutgers like they stole something. I honestly thought Harb. took his foot off the gas because he started to feel sorry for them. He could have left the starters in and scored 100.
At some point he stopped throwing the ball but they still couldn´t stop the run either. Serves their coach right for starting something over the summer he couldn´t finish. Now watch what we do to his ex-boss.
RESPECT!!!!!
