Believe it or not, Rutgers still has something to play for in November.
The Scarlet Knights (4-5, 3-3 Big Ten) are two wins away from bowl eligibility. They’d need to win two of their next three: at Penn State, at Indiana and vs. Michigan State.
We caught up with Josh Newman, Rutgers beat writer for the Asbury Park Press, to discuss that and more.
Q: Rutgers has won three Big Ten games in the last four weeks. How big of a surprise, if at all, has this team been recently?
A: I think it’s been a pretty big surprise.
