The 2019 football schedule for Rutgers has gone through several changes of late. Last summer, we covered how Michigan and Notre Dame resuming their rivalry altered the Rutgers schedule. Instead of the Scarlet Knights traveling to the Big House on October 26th, the game was moved up to September 28th. After the Big Ten already scheduled a road game at Iowa that September, Rutgers was now looking at two conference road games in the opening month of the season.
This past January, Rutgers confirmed that they were resuming play against former Big East rival Boston College.
