What was expected to be the biggest crowd in Rutgers history is mostly here and most of them are waving around white towels reminiscent of the "homer hankies" that debuted during the 1987 World Series at the Metro Dome. Call them the "Rutgers rags" if you wish, or call them something else if you can think of anything better. Just don't call them the Terrible Towels, because they're white instead of yellow.

But whatever you want to call the towels, you've got to call this the biggest game of the year for Rutgers and maybe the biggest game in the short history of South Florida.

The only change to the starting lineup for either team is Glen Lee at strong safety for Rutgers over Ron Girault, who will miss his third straight game with an ankle injury.

We're minutes away from kickoff, so keep your lap top handy and enjoy the game; I'll check in after the first quarter.
