We’ve had a handful of decent ones. Last year was legitimately decent. This year is a step above that. This is uncharted territory for me, and I’m not sure how to react.— Matt Lanza (@mattlanza) December 15, 2020The Rutgers Scarlet Knights would prove their legitimacy this season with a win on Sunday. They are not normally known as one of the top teams in the country. If they could get to 6-0 and add a win against the Illinois Fighting Illini on their resume, they would be a real contender coming in the Big Ten.Key Player - Jacob YoungRutgers v MarylandJacob Young is the key player for the Rutgers Scarlet Knights.
