Growing up in Bergen County, NJ, makes this game a little special to me. I have plenty of friends and family members pulling for both sides.

That being said, Rutgers stands no chance. They played the first ever college football game in 1869 and that might as well been their last game (except for Pandemonium in Piscataway … I still remember that).

Next. Penn State Football: Defense stepping up lately. dark

It seems that Rutgers is severely out matched by every Big Ten opponent they face. This could be a great game for Trace McSorley and K.J. Hamler, both of whom are awards finalists (pad those stats boys). The defense should dominate as well.
