The Buffalo Bulls have set up a game with the Rutgers Scarlet Knights for the 2018 season. Rutgers plays its home games at High Point Solutions Stadium, located on the university's Piscataway, New Jersey campus. The team is currently coached by Chris Ash.
Rutgers moved over to the Big Ten in 2014. In their inaugural season, they finished 7-5 became bowl-eligible and trounced North Carolina 40-21 in the Quick Lane bowl. Last season, beleaguered before the onset of the season by the arrest of multiple active players on assault-related charges, the Knights went 1-7 in B1G play. After the year both head coach Kyle Flood and athletic director Julie Hermann were fired.
