Rutgers hosted Iowa in a much-anticipated Big Ten opener under the lights in Piscataway.
fans, the Big Ten opener against Iowa was a good test about your level of optimism. You could have summed up this loss, quite accurately, by pointing out that the Scarlet Knights would have had a chance to win if they didn’t score 14 points for the Hawkeyes.the whole scoring-14-points-for-the-Hawkeyes thingThis one isn’t all that complicated, folks. Rutgers is not a program that can make any mistakes against a solid Big Ten program like Iowa and expect to win the game.
But with a chance to go 4-0 against a much better opponent, playing it close to the vest wasn’t going to work. Rutgers was ahead 3-0 when Evan Simon’s pass was intercepted by Iowa linebacker Cooper DeJean and returned 44 yards for a touchdown. Then, in the second quarter, Iowa safety Kaevon Merriweather returned a Joshua Youngblood fumble for a TD and a 14-3 lead.
But the numbers, mostly amassed late in the game against Iowa second teamers, don’t tell the story. Simon, the only scholarship quarterback available for this game, threw two killer interceptions — including one that was returned for a touchdown — and misfired on several throws early in the game that might have changed the outcome.during warmups indicates that both will be back sooner than later. Perhaps even next week at Ohio State. They need both back, ASAP.
This time, on fourth and four from the Iowa 7, the Hawkeyes sent pressure at Simon, and the quarterback fired a pass into the end zone that wasn’t near anyone in red. Iowa took over on downs. On the next drive, however, Rutgers finally broke through and scored a touchdown.exclusively for the quality of its punters. Adam Korsak vs. Tory Taylor was the main billing for Rutgers vs. Iowa, and somehow, it managed to live up to the hype.
