Rutgers vs. Michigan Series History

Rutgers and Michigan have met every year since the Scarlet Knights joined the Big Ten in 2014, having never met before then. Although it has been extremely lopsided, these two teams have had some pretty memorable moments. Lets breakdown this short but eventful series.

2014

Rutgers first game in the Big Ten was a heartbreaking loss to Penn State where Gary Nova threw five interceptions. It was a horrible performance that many feared would define his senior season. Nova proved all the doubters wrong against Michigan with the performance of his career. In front of a sold out crowd of 53,327, he threw for a career best 404 passing yards and 3 touchdown passes.
