Freshman Johnny Langan is the third QB for Rutgers this season after transfer McLane Carter was forced to retire due to injury and Artur Sitkowski decided to redshirt this season. Raheem Blackshear is also redshirting, leaving the Knights without arguably their best player.

According to the computer prediction put out by Odds Shark, Rutgers is expected to lose by more than two scores at home to Liberty. As if being a 7.5-point home underdog is bad enough, the prediction sees the Flames winning 29.8-12.2:
