Rutgers will look to break an ugly trend in College Park. The Scarlet Knights (5-4, 2-4) will face Maryland (4-5, 1-5) on Saturday at SECU Stadium, a venue that has not been kind to head coach Greg Schiano’s program since it joined the Big Ten.

There wasn’t much time for Joe Harasymiak to rest during Rutgers football’s bye week. The Scarlet Knights’ defensive coordinator went to work breaking down the unit and rebuilding it, looking for ways to improve a defense that had struggled to find any consistency for four consecutive games amid a mountain of injuries.
