Randall West, a 5th year senior from Moorestown, NJ is feeling the heat from thundering 6-1, 295 lb linebacker Jaohne Duggan from Bethlahem, Pennsylvania even as he surveys his passing options. As for the game itself, Rutgers fell behind a red-hot Randall and his visiting Massachusetts Minutemen 21-7 in a season-opening August, 30, 2019 football game at the SHI Stadium in Piscataway, New Jersey. The defense stiffened and the offense exploded. The Rutgers Scarlet Knights eventually rallied and went on to score 41 unanswered points and celebrated the 150th anniversary of of intercollegiate football by trouncing the Massachusetts Minutemen 48-21 in an NCAA Division 1 FBS matchup. nnThe game had a historic context because 150 years earlier, Rutgers beat Princeton 6-4 in the first inter-collegiate football game which was played in neighboring New Brunswick, NJ in 1869. To the present day, Rutgers is known as the `Birthplace of College Football.`
