Rutgers coach calls Wisconsin trip a major challenge

Rutgers coach Greg Schiano called the Scarlet Knights’ trip to Madison a major challenge, praising Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell and warning that quarterback Colton Joseph’s throwing and running ability could stress the defense. Schiano also pointed to Wisconsin’s offensive line, running backs, receivers and tight end as threats, while noting the Badgers’ large defensive line, pass-rusher Sebastian Cheeks and strong secondary. The matchup comes as Wisconsin looks to rebound from a 30-0 loss to Iowa; Rutgers is seeking its first win over the Badgers, who have won all six previous meetings.
