PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) - With its offense sputtering and its unbeaten season in jeopardy, No. 15 Rutgers turned to its opportunistic defense and special teams to turn away an upset bid.
Rutgers' defense, offense and special teams scored touchdowns in a game for the second time this season in a 23-14 win over Connecticut on Sunday night that kept the Scarlet Knights (8-0) one of six unbeaten teams in Division 1-A.
Rutgers can now turn its attention to a showdown with No. 5 Louisville a week from Thursday. The Cardinals (7-0) will face No. 3 West Virginia this Thursday night.
