Rutgers 2018: Players to Watch

Yes, people, Rutgers has players to watch for 2018. The problem is only one of them plays offense.

The defense acquitted themselves fairly well last year, ranking No. 53 in S&P defense. In their four wins, they allowed only 15 points a game, and held Saquon Barkley to only 35 yards in the loss to Penn State.

Chris Ash — the co-defensive coordinator on the 2014 Ohio State National Championship squad — knows defense. Once he finds a competent passing game, the Scarlet Knights may finally go bowling for the first time in four years.
