PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Antwan Raymond led Rutgers to a lopsided 58-7 triumph over Howard on Friday night. The Scarlet Knights amassed 534 yards in the contest, scoring on 10 of their 12 possessions. Dylan Lonergan contributed significantly to the victory with 214 passing yards and two touchdowns in the three quarters he played.
Incoming freshman KJ Duff had a breakout night, catching five passes for 131 yards and a touchdown. Howard managed just 184 yards, with their only touchdown coming from Eden James, the son of NFL Hall of Famer Edgerrin James. Howard finished with 116 yards on seven carries. The win marked coach Greg Schiano's 100th victory at Rutgers, bringing his career record to 100-111 since taking the helm in 2005.
Schiano joins four other active Bowl Subdivision head coaches with 100 wins at their current school. The Bison have only managed one win against an FBS school, against UNLV in 2017. Rutgers has dominated Howard, outscoring them 318-67 in their seven previous encounters. Howard's next game is against Hampton on October 3, while Rutgers hosts defending champion Indiana on the same date.
