NOTING THE GAME
• It was the highest-ranked opponent ever beaten by the Bearcats, who that season had faced--and lost to No. 1 Ohio State, No. 10 Virginia Tech, No. 7 Louisville and No. 10 West Virginia--all on the road.
• Cincinnati, who moved to 6-5 overall and 3-3 in BIG EAST play, became bowl eligible with the win and later played in the International Bowl.
• A pair of first-time starters--one on offense and one on defense--keyed a total team effort as UC handed the Scarlet Knights their first defeat of the season.
• Nick Davila, making his first-ever start at quarterback, completed 11 of 15 passes for 277 yards and one touchdown and scored another TD on a one-yard run. The senior sparked the UC offense to 402 yards and 30 points against a Rutgers defense ranked fourth nationally in both fewest yards (231.7) and points allowed (10.9).
• Davila connected with TE Brent Celek on an 83-yard strike in the third quarter, UC's longest offensive play of the season.
• DeAngelo Smith, making his first-ever start at cornerback, picked off a pass and returned it 84 yards for a touchdown which gave UC a 17-0 lead a little over five minutes into the second quarter. He helped a defensive effort that held Rutgers, the nation's No. 15 rushing team (187.8 yards) to 60 yards. The Bearcats bottled Ray Rice, ranked No. 3 individually in rushing (148.2), to a season-low 54 yards.
• Mike Patrick, Todd Blackledge and Holly Rowe were on the call for ESPN.
