It’s still early in the season, but 4-0 with some overwhelming final scores is quite nice.

Update: I was told by another alumni that Rutgers cracked the AP top 25 poll. Awesome!!!

Here’s a little blurb to warm your Rutgers heart.

Off to its first 4-0 start in more than two decades, Rutgers has reached another milestone: its first national top 25 ranking in 30 years. A day after routing Division I-AA Howard, 56-7, Rutgers was ranked No. 23 in The Associated Press poll yesterday, ahead of Georgia Tech and Missouri. The previous time the Scarlet Knights received a ranking was in 1976, when they finished 11-0 and were ranked as high as No. 17. A year ago, the Scarlet Knights went 7-5 and earned a berth in the Insight Bowl, their first postseason appearance in 27 years. It was Rutgers’ first winning season since 1992.

That winning season in 1992 was my freshman year. And in 1976, I was two years old. That’s how long it’s been.
