It wasn’t pretty inside the RAC on Friday night.

A relatively quiet crowd watched Rutgers give up a little too many bonus points to a top ten Nebraska squad who will now prepare for Iowa on Sunday. For the Scarlet Knights, they’ll have to put this one on the back burner as they have a quick turnaround and have Princeton coming to Piscataway at noon on Sunday.

Here are some observations:

Nick Suriano, Anthony Ashnault dominate

On paper, this is what should have happened. Although Suriano only mustered a major decision, he controlled the entire match and earned two takedowns in the first period.
