Previewing Rutgers-Penn State, biggest game of Greg Schiano 2.0., with all-time great RU QB | Rutgers Rant

The biggest game of Greg Schiano’s second stint at Rutgers is here.

The Scarlet Knights (5-6, 2-6) host Penn State (5-6, 2-6) on Saturday for a do-or-die regular season finale in which the winner earns a bowl bid and the loser sees its season come to an end.

Rutgers is seeking its third consecutive postgame appearance, but the bigger prize is beating the Nittany Lions for the third time in program history, snapping a 17-game losing streak across the last 37 years and earning the kind of signature win in a huge spot that has eluded Schiano and company since his return to Piscataway five years ago.

The Rutgers Rant is back to preview the highly-anticipated game, break down the implications of either result, look at how Penn State has looked much improved over the past month under interim coach Terry Smith and debate whether fans should storm the field at SHI Stadium if the Scarlet Knights pull off the upset.

Rutgers moneyline is +420 on FanDuel for Saturday’s game versus Penn State. Our complete FanDuel Sportsbook review shows you how to sign up and get started with their platform.

To give our predictions for the game, we invited former Rutgers quarterback Ryan Hart as our guest picker. One of the most prolific passers in program history who follows his alma mater closely, he shares his take on current Scarlet Knights signal-caller Athan Kaliakmanis and gives his keys for Rutgers to come out on top.

We also discuss the men’s basketball team’s disastrous upset loss to Central Connecticut State and how it changed the outlook for a season that already had very low expectations coming into it.
