RUTGERS PLAYER OF THE GAME: THE RUTGERS DEFENSE

THE SKINNY: Even though the Scarlet Knights weren’t able to get the win, the Andy Buh led defense came to play today, at least for three quarters. The Scarlet Knights defensive line led by JACK LB CJ Onyechi was causing havoc for PSU quarterback Will Levis causing a couple of sacks. The linebackers were hitting the gaps and the defensive backs were both covering and tackling well. The Scarlet Knights defense that gave up 40+ in four games those season, only gave up 27 against PSU today.
