Rutgers lost 37 alumni on 9/11. This Saturday is the 20th anniversary and RU is playing Syracuse up at the Carrier Dome. RU created special uniforms for the game. Well done Rutgers, Well done indeed.

"never forget on the gloves" in red and gold, representing the colors of the NY fire department & the 343 who perished that day.
The skyline of NYC, with the towers, are on the gloves at the wrists.
The names of the 37 RU alumni who were murdered that day on the helmets
The silver stripes representing the towers
The US flag on the back of the helmet and the jersey
Never forget on the back of the helmet


 
Really like the the uniforms Rutgers is wearing. Reminds me of the ones BC has worn the red bandana unis in the past and will again this year in honor of a fallen hero on 9/11 Welles Crowther who played lacrosse at BC. In the article a link to a hour long doc if you got the time very great piece. If not some other good shorter ones on youtube that are 10-15 min long if you enter his name or the man in the red bandana.

I know that story and have read the book. Extremely emotional.

Awesome tribute Rutgers!
I hope everyone can be one, and all stand during the National Anthem for those who have fallen.
