Result:
LOSS

There is an interesting contrast here for a pair of teams that have started 3-0. Greg Schiano was the coach the last time Rutgers was a viable Big-10 team. Wins against Temple and Delaware may not say much, and while they beat Syracuse 17-7, they were held to 195 yards of total offense and benefitted from three turnovers. Jim Harbaugh started the season on the hot-seat. And while the schedule has not been very difficult, the eye test says this could be the year Michigan gets beyond Ohio State and finds themselves in the playoffs. Both sides of the ball have been elite. Rutgers has grown, but what they will face on the road here is a team that knows how big a win would be here. Michigan has not turned the ball over all season, they have the look of a championship caliber team, and they will prove it at home. Make the play on Michigan.
