The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are led by head coach Greg Schiano, who is in his second tour of duty there.
Schiano is called the only coach who knows Rutgers well enough to win there. And the record bears that out.
Yet even with Schiano, Rutgers has a historic record of having a limited ceiling. Rutgers is coming off consecutive 7-6 seasons and minor bowl berths.
At Rutgers, AKA the State University of New Jersey, that is cause for parades and statues.
On Friday night, Rutgers will visit the rebuilding Washington Huskies.
