Watch: Rutgers Botches 'Philly Philly' Trick Play, Drops Pass in End Zone

Rutgers has compiled its fair share of gaffes this season, from a five-interception game to an embarrassing kickoff blunder. And another lowlight error came on Saturday vs. Penn State.

The Scarlet Knights faced fourth and goal at the Nittany Lions' two-yard-line in the second quarter, looking to get within one score down 13-0. Head coach Chris Ash drew up a beautiful play, setting up quarterback Giovanni Rescigno wide-open in the end zone as Rutgers imitated the Eagles' famous "Philly Philly" from Super Bowl LII.

But as often happens with Rutgers, they couldn't complete the trick play.
