Rutgers Offense is Slumping

The Rutgers offense has been a major issue, and if they want to win a success they are going to need the offense to be good here. Over the last three games the Rutgers have scored only 22 points and that has led to the issues. Against quarterback, Gavin Wimsatt completed 10 of his 16 passes for 130 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. Rutgers overall is averaging 22.5 points while their defense is giving up 19.1 points per game. The offense is ranked 101st and they need to find a way to get the offense going here.

Rutgers Betting Trends

Rutgers has lost each of its last 12 November games at SHI Stadium.
Rutgers has failed to cover the spread in seven of its last eight home games in November.
Each of Rutgers' last six November games at SHI Stadium have gone OVER the total points line.

Maryland Looks to End Regular Season With Victory

Maryland faced off against Michigan in the last game and they were competitive, but they ended up giving up 31 points and they ended up losing by seven points. Taulia Tagovailoa completed 21 of his 31 passes for 247 yards, zero touchdowns, two interceptions. Maryland on the season is averaging 28.5 points while their defense is giving up 23.2 points per game. The offense is ranked 61st and in this game they are going to need the offense to be good here early. The one thing Rutgers can’t do is fall behind.

Maryland Betting Trends

Maryland has lost five of its last six games.
Maryland has covered the spread in four of its last five November road games against non-AP-ranked teams.
Maryland has lost the first half in three of its last four games against conference opponents.
Five of Maryland's last six road games against conference opponents have gone UNDER the total points line.

Shane’s Free Pick

The Rutgers offense is a major concern for me and they are going to really struggle in this game. Rutgers is averaging 28.5 points per game and they are going to get another big game from Tagovailoa. Rutgers aren’t going to get a ton of production from Wismatt and that is going to be the difference as Maryland is going to be teh team to get the job done. Back Maryland against the spread.
