The Scarlet Knights leaned heavily on the ground game, as running back Kyle Monangai continued his stellar 2023 campaign by repeatedly dominating the Hurricanes' front seven. The Big Ten's leading rusher totaled 163 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries, adding 17 more yards as a receiver.
Rutgers' defense also played a large role in the victory despite some early issues with penalties, stifling a Miami offense that entered the contest averaging 32.
