While there are no guarantees and there is a reason they play the games, it’s fair to think that Rutgers will split its first two games of the 2018 season. While the home opener against Texas State is no sure thing, as no games are, especially as a Rutgers fan, a victory is likely. On the flip side, the following week, the Scarlet Knights travel to face top ten Ohio State, where victory is highly unlikely, even with the Urban Meyer ongoing investigation and the distractions that has brought. As I wrote earlier this summer, it’s important that Rutgers survive the matchup against the Buckeyes from a confidence and health standpoint.
