Rutgers has suffered three straight defeats, but there's no shame in losing to Michigan, Ohio State, and Michigan State. Now they'll be well-rested following their bye week and must be looking forward to taking on a more beatable opponent in a Northwestern team that took a 56-7 loss at Nebraska last time out.

Scarlet Knights are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite. Scarlet Knights are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a bye week. Wildcats are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog.

8* play on Rutgers.
