He missed several easy throws and overthrew multiple wide-open receivers. Wimsatt went just 10 for 25 for 129 yards through the air against Ohio State, and that’s simply not going to get it done against good teams.

Wimsatt Isn’t Quite There as a Passer: Gavin Wimsatt is one of the best rushing quarterbacks in the Big Ten, and he’s the biggest threat Rutgers had under center in a long time, but as a passer, he has a long way to go. Can’t help but see a lot of Pacheco in him too.

He should be a first-team all-conference back this year and has been a revelation for this Rutgers offense. He’s now over 900 yards on the ground this season and is all but likely going to be the first Scarlet Knight to run for 1000 yards since Jawan Jamison did so in 2012. It was his third straight 100-yard game and fifth such game of the year. Kyle Monangai 1st Team All-Big Ten: Rutgers’s star running back turned in another career day against the Buckeyes, rushing for 159 yards on 24 carries. Yesterday showed humongous progress, and there’s a real possibility for Rutgers to finish 7-5 or 8-4 down the stretch. Rutgers had more yards, more first downs, and despite the final score being 35-16, the game was much closer than that. The Scarlet Knights truly made it a game with the Buckeyes, and arguably, outside of the red zone, they outplayed OSU as well. Progress Has Been Made: For the first time, watching Rutgers play Ohio State wasn’t brutal.
