News
Dylan Lonergan had his breakout game for Rutgers: 291 passing yards, 3 passing touchdowns and 5 carries for 18 yards in Rutgers's 37-30 win at Maryland on Oct. 17, good for 23.4 CollegeFFB points in that game. Rutgers visits Northwestern on Oct. 24, and Lonergan, a steady producer averaging 12.2 points a game this season, looks like he could keep piling up throws at $5.5M.
Clay Thevenin ran 17 times for 109 yards and 1 touchdown and caught 2 passes for 24 yards and 1 touchdown in Rutgers's 37-30 win at Maryland on Oct. 17, good for 27.3 CollegeFFB points. At $5.1M, he has been a consistent scorer, averaging 11.2 points a game this season, and he should remain a key part of the Rutgers backfield when the Scarlet Knights visit Northwestern on Oct. 24.
Massachusetts wide receiver Joseph Griffin missed a game with an injury, according to the Daily Hampshire Gazette. The team hopes to have him back for its game against Buffalo, the Daily Hampshire Gazette reported.
