Ten down, two* to go. How did the units grade out against the Nittany Lions? Let us know how you feel about the defensive performance with our poll and in the comments below.
We break down the defensive performance at each of the three levels organized by alignment, assignment, and technique. The players listed in each group are in order of how noticeable they were to me, but potentially not every player who saw action.
Defensive Line: B (Wilkins, Turay, Turner, Joseph-Day, Bateky, Nash, Lumor, Previlon, Hogan, Davis)
Alignment: Rutgers switched and played 30 fronts early in the game with the weak side defensive end often up on two feet.
