Rutgers football is 0-2. Where does it go from here?
It's been a bad start to the season for Rutgers football, which fell to Boston College for its 2nd straight loss to open the season.
Rutgers football is currently 0-2, and the team has a lot of work to do if they hope to secure a win soon. Against Boston College on September 11, the Scarlet Knights suffered a 28-21 loss for their second straight defeat. The performance was marred by numerous mistakes, leading to a disappointing result. The defense, while showing improvement in the second half, was inconsistent overall.
Quarterback AJ Surace, making his first career start, completed 18-of-27 passes for 230 yards but threw four interceptions, thwarting potential scoring opportunities. Surace acknowledged there were improvements, but also highlighted areas that needed significant work. Head coach Greg Schiano expressed frustration, stating that the team's performance was not good enough.
Both the defense's slow start and Surace's interceptions proved costly, as Boston College took a 17-0 lead early in the game. Despite the challenges, Schiano remains optimistic that the team will improve going forward. Rutgers faces USC next, with Schiano hinting that the Scarlet Knights could surprise some opponents.
