Someone wanted to know the New York Times' computer rankings of college
teams.  Here it is from today's (12/5) paper, based on games through 12/1:

      ...

19) Rutgers (!)

/* End of text from uiucdcs:net.sport.foot */

Why the exclamation point?  Rutgers is my nominee for the annual we-got-
screwed-out-of-a-bowl-appearance-award (pass the trophy on, East Carolina).
While an Eastern counterpart with a comparable schedule and slightly inferior
record, Army, goes to the Cherry Bowl, Rutgers, who beat them head-to-head
this year, will spend the holidays in New Jersey.  Bring back the Garden
State Bowl? :-)

This is no slight of the Cadets, but if they're going, there should be a place
for Rutgers.
