Here’s what Rutgers’ coaching staff said about Penn State’s ‘tremendous’ Trace McSorley

Rutgers head coach Chris Ash couldn’t help but laugh when asked how happy he’ll be to see Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley graduate after this season.

“He’s not a lot of fun to compete against on gameday, I’ll tell you that,” Ash told reporters Monday at his weekly press conference. “Because he’s so competitive, and he’s athletic, and he’s smart. He makes good decisions.”

Ash and the Scarlet Knights will take on McSorley’s Nittany Lions at noon Saturday in Piscataway, N.J. And Rutgers’ head man is well-aware of what the fifth-year signal-caller is capable of.

In McSorley’s last two starts against the hapless Scarlet Knights, Penn State outscored the opponent 74-6.
