To get ready for their second season as members of the Big Ten, Rutgers players are trying to bulk up during the offseason.

NJ.com reports 19 program records have already fallen in the weight room this winter and spring as the Scarlet Knights work to get bigger to hold up better against the rough-and-tumble Big Ten.
