Rutgers football travels to Columbus for a Saturday Big Ten matchup against Ohio State. Odds have soared to -22 in favor of Ohio State and may travel further before game time. Fresh on people’s minds is the Ohio State game in which they obliterated the Maryland Terrapins. Line movement was against the Buckeyes before game time traveling down in excess of 2-3 points to just 4.5.

I think this week is the perfect time to capitalize on the underdog Rutgers. Rutgers is a team that isn’t the most talented but is a pesky team if they can avoid silly turnovers from Senior quarterback Gary Nova.

Rutgers is in their first year of the Big Ten, and has a good nucleus of upper classmen. All of these players have heard on campus, in the media, and in their football circles talk of heading to the Big Ten for multiple years. It’s finally here and the marquee game on all their minds has to be Ohio State.

Rutgers was always a pesk to Big East and AAC heavyweights even when overmatched. Just ask Louisville.

This won’t be an upset but I expect Rutgers to hang in to get an easy cover being spotted over three touchdowns.
