Washington at Rutgers Preview and Betting Pick For 9/27/2024

In a highly anticipated game on September 27, 2024, at 8:00 pm ET, the Washington Huskies will go head-to-head with the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. The initial betting odds from DraftKings Sportsbook favor the Scarlet Knights by 2.5 points. Meanwhile, the total for this game is set at 44.5, indicating we could be in for a defensive struggle. In our preview of Washington vs Rutgers, find out what to look for in this Big Ten matchup and get our best bet for this conference game.

Can Washington Go to 2-0 In Big Ten Play?

The Washington Huskies won their first game of conference play in their last outing, when they beat the Northwestern Wildcats at home by a score of 24-5. While that game was by no means the most aesthetically pleasing football game, the Huskies defense was phenomenal, allowing just 112 yards of offense to Northwestern. Here, the Huskies will look to replicate that performance, though it may be hard for Washington to hold Rutgers to just eight completed passes like they did to Northwestern quarterback Jack Lausch.

Rutgers Looks to Stay Perfect

Going into their first game of Big Ten competition this year, the Rutgers Scarlet Knights are 3-0. Rutgers beat up on Howard and Akron in their first two games of the season. But the Scarlet Knights proved that they are a team to be taken seriously in their last outing, which was a 26-23 win over the Virginia Tech Hokies. Rutgers outgained Virginia Tech by just over 100 yards in that game, while winning the turnover battle 3-1, two areas they will likely need to win if they want to win this game against Washington at home.

Washington vs Rutgers Best Bet

We have been very impressed with the defenses on both sides of this Washington vs Rutgers contest. While we expect Rutgers to come out on top in this game on their home field, we are going to go with the under as our best bet for this game. Washington has held teams in the single-digits in three of their four games this season, while they have gone under the total in all four of their games. Look for that streak to continue in what should be a defensive struggle from New Jersey.
