The message is clear. Greg Schiano wants Rutgers students back at SHI Stadium on Saturday afternoon as the Scarlet Knights host a No. 21 ranked Wisconsin team.

As the season winds down and the number of home games dwindles, Schiano wants the stadium in Piscataway to be as full as possible for a big-time matchup. Rutgers still has a lot on the line, fighting for bowl eligibility over the next 4 games.

Below is the message Schiano sent students on Friday:

Rutgers enters this weekend’s contest at 4-4, coming off a 20-14 victory over Illinois. The Scarlet Knight will need 2 victories in their next 4 games to reach bowl eligibility. They’ll play No. 21 Wisconsin, Indiana, Penn State and Maryland to close the year.

Wisconsin enters the game riding a 4-game winning streak after a 1-3 start to the season. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET.
