Greg Schiano had the Rutgers program as good as it had been in a long time in his first stint as Rutgers head coach, and he has started to move the needle his second time around. Rutgers is 4-2 to start the season and has lost to just Michigan and Wisconsin. The defense has been rock solid as the Scarlet Knights are allowing a stingy 14.7 PPG. The Michigan St. offense is going to struggle in this game as the Spartans have not been able to get anything going and have scored just 10.7 PPG in their last three, and turnovers have become a big issue. Michigan St. has turned the ball over nine times in its last two games. Rutgers is allowing just 284 yards per game, which is just 50 yards more than Michigan. I think the defense makes some plays here that help put another one in the win column for Rutgers. Make the play on Rutgers.
