When Kieran Mullins put in the game-winner on Saturday in OT against Ohio State, there were folks watching on BTN along with the 3,598 in the stands at High Point Solutions Stadium. It was the largest home crowd for Rutgers this season.
That doesn’t quite compare to the 14,353 at Maryland last weekend to watch the Twerps win the Big Ten regular season title over Johns Hopkins. But consider that it was Maryland-Hopkins....backyard brawl....for a title....in a lax hotbed....and Hopkins doesn’t do anything else. So the Rutgers number was a pretty good count.
The Ohio State game - senior day for a team that wasn’t going to make the Big Ten tourney - was the largest crowd of the season at home for the Knights with the second largest being the 3,458 versus Maryland.
