Eastern Michigan Eagles at Rutgers Scarlet Knights Overview
The two teams come in contrasting notes with regards to how they performed in 2016 and in their opening games. For Eastern Michigan, the Eagles are still celebrating their first bowl bid in 29 years, achieved on the heels of a seven-win season in 2016. The Eagles hit the ground running in 2017 with a 24-7 victory against Charlotte in Ypsilanti last Friday night. For Rutgers, 2016 was a bitter pill to swallow. The Scarlet Knights would go 2-10 and go winless in Big Ten competition over the span of the season. While Rutgers hoped to forget about 2016, they were quickly reminded of their fall from grace when they were rolled by the Washington Huskies in their season opener. The Huskies would go to work on the Scarlet Knights, handily beating them by a score of 30-14 in Piscataway.
