Rutgers (3-2, 0-2 Big Ten) faces Washington (4-1, 1-1 Big Ten) in a Week 7 Friday Night Big Ten matchup in Seattle.
The Scarlet Knights make a cross-country trip seeking to climb back into Big Ten contention, while the Huskies look to build on recent momentum.
Rutgers’ QB Athan Kaliakmanis has thrown for 1,399 yards and 9 touchdowns thus far. The Scarlet Knights have shown promise in the passing game with KJ Duff, Ian Strong, and DT Sheffield combining for over 800 yards, but protection remains an issue. Rutgers allowed seven sacks last week and has struggled to sustain drives under pressure.
Running back Antwan Raymond has rushed for 471 yards and 9 touchdowns, though the run game has been inconsistent. Defensively, Rutgers continues to battle tackling and gap-control problems, leaving them vulnerable against physical rushing teams.
Washington’s offense has found balance behind quarterback Demond Williams Jr., who’s completing 73% of his throws for 1,226 yards, 8 touchdowns, and 1 interception. He adds mobility and composure in extending plays, complemented by wideout Denzel Boston (346 yards, 4 TDs) as the primary downfield threat.
The Huskies’ biggest weapon is Jonah Coleman, who’s piled up 474 rushing yards, 10 touchdowns, and 223 receiving yards as one of the Big Ten’s top dual threats.
Washington’s defense has been firm against the run and opportunistic in forcing turnovers, though its secondary can be hit deep — the one area Rutgers might try to exploit if its line can hold.
Rutgers-Washington Prediction
While Rutgers has the firepower to create problems, Washington’s combination of offensive balance, rushing threat, and home-field advantage gives them the edge.
Projected Score: Washington 34, Rutgers 23
