Southern Florida went into New Jersey to take on Rutgers who is almost unbeatable at home. Southern Florida who entered the game holdin other offenses to a high of 106 yards per game, allowed Ray Rice (possible MVP) to run all over them. He had 189 yrds and two touchdowns. Another main factor in their loss was how productive Rutgers offensive line was. They allowed only one sack when Southern Florida was averaging about 11 a game.
They ran the ball on us pretty good," cornerback Trae Williams said. "They moved the ball up and down the field. We just weren't able to stop them tonight." Quarterback Mike Teel only completed 11 of 39 attempts but made them count. He had two touchdown throws and no interceptions. It just seemed like Rutgers always had the answer to what was thrown at them.
With this loss, Southern Florida dropped out of the top 10 in the BCS standings and their cinderella story came to an end. Rutgers became ranked in the top 15 with this win and hope to continue moving up in the standards. What comes next for Southern Florida? That is a question waiting to be answered.
