Rutgers football may not get it done for you. You may believe that the Scarlet Knights don’t belong in the Big Ten.

And, that’s fine. You’re able to form your own opinion. But one thing that Rutgers is certainly doing well in 2019 is punting the football. And, that’s not a jab at Rutgers.

For the second time this season, Scarlet Knights punter Adam Korsak won the Ray Guy Award’s Punter of the Week Award. Korsak won it in Week 2 after playing Iowa, and now after the game in Week 4 against Boston College, he has done it again:

Korsak, against Boston College in the 30-16 loss, punted five times in the game for a total of 221 yards. He posted a net of 43 yards, as only one of his punts got returned for a total of six yards.

All five of the punts landed inside Boston College’s 20-yard-line and Korsak is now 12-of-16 on the season pinning teams inside their own 20-yard line.

Rutgers travels to take on Michigan on Saturday.
