Was the game over by halftime? Yes. Did Rutgers put on a show for their fans? Big yes.
For the first time ever, the Rutgers faithful can feel good after a trip to Columbus. The Scarlet Knights suffered a 49-27 loss on Saturday night but they pulled out all the stops in this one.
Ohio State outscored Rutgers 28-0 in the second quarter and led 35-3 at halftime. Justin Fields continued his Heisman campaign by going 24-28 for 314 yards and five touchdowns. He is still without an interception this season.
In the second half, we saw a new Rutgers’ team.
