As of right now, Rutgers is technically off for another eight days as they are set to take on the Syracuse Orange in the annual ACC/B1G Challenge next Tuesday (12/8) at 9:30pm EST.
However, as head coach Steve Pikiell noted in his postgame presser on Sunday afternoon, the team is hoping to get another game in before that.
“Probably pretty good if we can figure it out and do it at the right time,” Pikiell said on his chances of scheduling another game before Syracuse. “Honestly everything is about safety, how much testing, who’s traveling and who’s not traveling you know that kind of thing. Our guys are safe, we’ve been doing a real good job of keeping it that so all the decisions will be based on that.”
