Rutgers Hangs with Ohio State: Schocket’s Six Thoughts

Rutgers finally hung with Ohio State. My thoughts:

Progress Has Been Made: For the first time, watching Rutgers play Ohio State wasn’t brutal. The Scarlet Knights truly made it a game with the Buckeyes, and arguably, outside of the red zone, they outplayed OSU as well. Rutgers had more yards, more first downs, and despite the final score being 35-16, the game was much closer than that. Yesterday showed humongous progress, and there’s a real possibility for Rutgers to finish 7-5 or 8-4 down the stretch.
