Rutgers kept it competitive for a half, but ultimately fell 38-10 against the Fighting Illini in its last outing. Rutgers did manage 185 yards rushing in that game and has now rushed for 456 yards in the last two games. Rutgers quarterback Johnny Langan has rushed for 159 yards and a score in his last two starts and has thrown for 278 yards with three touchdowns against just one interception in that span. The freshman gives the Rutgers offense a playmaking dynamic that it's been lacking and the potential return of running back Isaih Pacheco should also give it a boost.
The Buckeyes, meanwhile, took it to Maryland for a full four quarters, racking up a 73-14 victory. Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields passed for 200 yards and three touchdowns on 25 attempts. The Georgia transfer has now thrown 27 touchdowns with just one interception on the season while adding 10 rushing touchdowns. J.K. Dobbins also added 90 yards and two touchdowns despite playing sparingly. Dobbins is now up to 1,200 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns on the season.
