The Scarlet Knights are 6th in this week's BCS rankings. They're second in the computer portion of the rankings, as six mathematical models have found them 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 3rd, and 3rd in the nation.
The expert part of the BCS formula, the part decided by people, the part that knows Rutgers is 87-152-5 in the previous 21 years of football, and the part that had an opinion on the state of Rutgers football before the start of the season that did not think this team would be 9-0, has ranked them 7th and 8th.
