A lot went wrong in Rutgers 48-13 loss at Washington. It was simply a matter of being outclassed by a much better team. It was a tough opening game and it’s going to take time for Chris Ash and his staff to turn this team around. However, there were some positive performances in yesterday’s game.
It was a struggle for Grant against a Washington defense that keyed on him early and often. It was certainly frustrating to see him caught several times at, behind, or near the line of scrimmage on screen passes during the game. When he got stuffed on the opening kickoff, it was the first sign this would be a long day for Rutgers.
