Another fall Saturday resulted in another loss for Rutgers football, as the losing streak grows to four. After a promising start to the game, Indiana asserted control and scored 24 unanswered points. The Scarlet Knights didn’t quit on this day, but lacked the execution and firepower to complete the comeback, falling to the Hoosiers by one score, 24-17. There were signs of improvement, particularly on offense, but moral victories don’t equal progress in Chris Ash’s third season. Rutgers went 1-4 in September.
The Rutgers offense started the game well, taking the opening drive all the way in for a score.
