p.1 #1 · NCAA Football - Rutgers @ UConn

Finally a football game with no rain coming down. As Geoffrey mentioned, this Big East matchup between Rutgers and Connecticut was emotional from start to finish. The day started with memorials for slain UConn safety Jasper Howard, and ended with his childhood friend, Rutgers wide receiver Tim Brown, scoring the game winning touchdown on an 81-yard catch and run with 0:22 left on the clock. Here's my view of Rutgers' day.

Will: Good story and coverage. #3 is a stunner. There are a couple where I would have liked to see you go vertical. Must have been one heck of an intense day at this stadium.
