Rutgers football had some struggles in 2022. But there is reason for some optimism this fall.
The Scarlet Knights finished last season with a 4-8 (1-8 Big Ten) record, placing them seventh overall in the Big Ten East standings.
Taking an early look at Rutgers football’s 2023 schedule, the Scarlet Knights are rewarded with seven home games this upcoming season. All five of Rutgers’ road games are against Big Ten opponents, meaning that the Scarlet Knights might need to get a road win or two to be bowl eligible. Last season, Rutgers won two road games but both where non-conference games.
As for 2023, it looks different for head coach Greg Schiano and the Scarlet Knights, as their schedule has some winnable games. This upcoming season will be Schiano’s fourth season with the Scarlet Knights, and he is yet to have a winning record in his return back to the program. Bowl eligibility is possible this year, as the Scarlet Knights could go 6-6 this upcoming season.
Below are the rankings of Rutgers’ win/loss probability, starting with the most likely to lose, then the most winnable.
