The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are bad at football this year. Worst team in the Big Ten.
That being said, Illinois ran the ball very well, and the defense made some nice stops on its way to a 38-17 win.
There's plenty of positives to take away, but some bad as well:
Illinois chugs along with the running game.
It was good to see AJ Bush healthy again, if only for the fact he's a more effective option in the run game than MJ Rivers.
It was more of the same for the story of the season for Illinois so far.
