The Rutgers football team won once more as an underdog to conclude a season that is best summed up as an upset victory. Rutgers punctuated its surprise first trip through the Big Ten by dominating 3.5-point favorite North Carolina to the tune of 40-21 behind a smart senior quarterback, a couple of emerging stars, a hard-hitting defense and some special teams excellence.
