Game Time

Seventy degrees a couple minutes before kickoff with a 16 mph wind and 35 percent humidity.

It's homecoming day at Rutgers and most of the 42,000 seats are full, with some stragglers still making their way in.

The one change to the official depth chart among starters for Rutgers is Vantrise Studivant over Pete Tverdov at tacke. But Tverdov, who injured his ankle in the last week of training camp, has been listed as the starter for all three games but hasn't started any of them. It's the second start of the year for Studivant, who also started against Buffalo.

It's been an interesting day so far for the Big East, with UConn pulling out a win over Temple in a game that they were favored to win by almost 30 points but probably should have lost, and Pitt coming up just short against Michigan State on the road.

Syracuse, as expected got pummelled by Illinois.

With that, we're just a few minutes from kickoff. If this information somehow didn't get to you, the game is televised on MSG, but as usual, I'll have in-game observations as we go along.

Enjoy the game.
