Rutgers has broken through!
It’s safe to say this is not how fans were hoping the season opener would go for the Scarlet Knights. An early score by UMass and an early turnover by Rutgers helped the Minutemen race out to a 14-0 lead. Fortunately, the Scarlet Knights are fighting back.

Rutgers battled back on this drive and scored its first points of the season on a short run by Isaih Pacheco. Hopefully, this score further ignites Rutgers to comeback and take the lead.
