Cool New B1G Trivia 

Rutgers played Princeton in the first CFB game in 1869. They split the NC that year. A B1G team played in the first college football game and won the first NC.

The first game was the only scheduled game between the two.  After Princeton loss, they pressed Rutgers to play a rematch, but it wasn't an official game.

When I am at the Carrier dome it kind of feels like I'm under a big white tent at the Circus watching a bunch of clowns play.
