Rutgers prepares to face Boston College in Friday night road game

Rutgers travels to Chestnut Hill for a Friday night matchup against Boston College in the Red Bandana Game. The Scarlet Knights look to rebound following a loss to UMass where the team struggled on both sides of the ball. Rutgers will start AJ Surace at quarterback for the first time after he replaced Dylan Lonergan during the second half of the previous contest. The game plan emphasizes establishing the run with Antwan Raymond to help shorten the game and ease pressure on the defense. Defensively, the Scarlet Knights seek significant improvement after failing to stop Pop Watson and the UMass offense last week. The program aims to move past recent performance criticisms with a win on the road.
