The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are a dark horse team that can make some noise in the Big Ten this season, and they looked sharp defensively in their season opener. The Sacred Heart Pioneers just don’t have the depth to hang in a game like this on the road against a decent / above average team. Thick line while teams are still getting their feet under them. Give me Rutgers and the chalk. I’m fairly high on the Scarlet Knights this season.
