The Scarlet Knights faced a tough defeat last week against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, where they succumbed in a defensive struggle, marking their first loss of the season. Nebraska led 14-0 at halftime, and Rutgers quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis struggled, completing only 15 of 37 passes for 186 yards, along with one touchdown and two interceptions. Despite this setback, Rutgers has maintained a strong defensive reputation, ranking sixth in the nation for red zone scoring rate at 61.5% and holding the 17th position for scoring defense, allowing just 15.8 points per game.
On the other hand, the Wisconsin Badgers, known for their robust defense and powerful running game, showcased their passing prowess with 359 yards from quarterback Braedyn Locke in a dominant 52-6 victory over Purdue last week. This win ended a two-game losing streak against ranked opponents, including number four Alabama and number 13 USC.
