Key Points:
- Rutgers football suffered a 28-21 loss to Michigan at home, despite showing some improvement and playing one of their better games this season.
- Head coach Greg Schiano continues to emphasize that the team is "getting better," a refrain repeated throughout his seven-year tenure, but the team's 2-6 record and lack of wins raise questions about progress.
- The team had opportunities to win, including a key 54-yard run setting up a potential game-tying touchdown, but failed to capitalize late, with quarterback AJ Surace notably struggling in the second half.
- Schiano dismissed the idea of moral victories, insisting Rutgers must start winning soon or face potential coaching changes or difficult explanations from the program.
- With four games left, Rutgers must prove its improvement by securing wins, starting with an upcoming game against a struggling Wisconsin team.
