Melton brothers score back-to-back touchdowns for Rutgers
Rutgers is cruising to its 1st win in the 2021 season as they are blowing out Temple 54-14 early in the 4th quarter.
Rutgers, in the 3rd quarter, had a couple of quick touchdowns from a brother’s duo. WR Bo Melton got on the board first and plays later; his brother DB Max Melton gets a pick-six for the Scarlet Knights.

Rutgers on defense today have been dominant as they have had a safety, a couple of interceptions and a fumble recovery.
This will be Rutgers first home win since 2019; all 3 wins last season were on the road for the Scarlet Knights. ( @Michigan State, @Purdue, @Maryland.)
Rutgers next week will be facing the Syracuse Orangemen on the road at noon ET on BTN.
