Ohio State DT Haskell Garrett sees major improvement from Rutgers: 'It's a great football team'
Ohio State goes on the road this weekend to take on Rutgers in Piscataway, NJ.
Most years, this would be a bloodbath with the Buckeyes blowing out the Scarlet Knights.
However, Greg Schiano, in his second stint with the team, has the Scarlet Knights looking much more like a B1G football team.
