Well, we'll see if I have anyone to talk to tonight.

First off, traffic sucked pretty bad, so I expect a good number of late arrivals, but what is with Ticketmaster showing 190 tickets left? Upper bowl is less than 1/2 full.

Great to see MU get off to a great start for once. Hey Rutgers - DJO & Jae Crowder are tops on the team in scoring - you may want to keep an eye on them.

I like to compare segments during games. The MU staff sends out stat updates about every 5 minutes. I like to compare 5 categories - points, rebounds, assists, turnovers and steals.

Period - 20:00 - 15:32 remaining MU 17, Rutgers 6

Points: MU + 11
Rebounds: MU +1
Assists: MU +5
Turnovers: MU +2 (Rutgers with 3)
Steals: MU +1

Side note: MU with 17 points at the first TV timeout - best start in months!

Got to love Vander Blue's hustle and intensity. He has really come a long way since last season. Rutgers' Gilvydas Baruda with 2 fouls 10 mins in - having him on the bench should help MU's offensive rebounding

We are really f-ing good right now. Buzz was clearly pissed when Rutgers got back into it, but there was a total business-like atmosphere and we regained control. Jae might be the best player in the country right now. He's averaging 25+ points per game over the last few weeks, I say Big East POY is next.
