 PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) - Synonymous with college football futility for the past decade, Rutgers has been neither punch line nor punching bag this season.
At 5-2, the Scarlet Knights can become bowl-eligible with a victory over Navy (4-2) on Saturday. The one and only time Rutgers went to a bowl game was 1978, when the Scarlet Knights made a short trip to the Garden State Bowl at Giants Stadium.
None of the players on the current roster were born then and head coach Greg Schiano was 12 and living in Wyckoff, N.J., about 75 miles north of the Rutgers campus.
