As we analyze the player statistics from the previous three games of both teams, it becomes evident that certain players have stood out and are likely to make a significant impact in this upcoming matchup.


For the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, one player who has consistently performed exceptionally well is quarterback Johnny Langan. In the last three games, Langan has showcased his skills with a passing yardage of 48 yards and a completion percentage of 47.368%. Although he hasn't scored any touchdowns yet, his ability to lead the team and make crucial plays cannot be underestimated.


Another standout player for the Scarlet Knights is running back Isaih Pacheco. With an average rushing yardage of 3.333 yards per carry and two first downs in the last three games, Pacheco has proven to be a reliable force on the field. Additionally, wide receiver Eddie Lewis has shown great potential with three receptions for 18 yards and one first down.


On the defensive side, linebacker Olakunle Fatukasi has been instrumental in stopping opponents with 11 tackles and two assists in the previous games. His presence on the field will undoubtedly pose a challenge for the Liberty Flames.


Turning our attention to the Liberty Flames, quarterback Stephen Calvert has been a key player for his team. With an impressive passing yardage of 351 yards and a completion percentage of 65.714%, Calvert has demonstrated his ability to lead his team effectively.


Running back Joshua Mack has also been a standout performer for the Flames, with an average rushing yardage of 7.063 yards per carry and five first downs in the last three games. His ability to find gaps in the defense and gain crucial yardage will be crucial for the Flames' success.


Wide receiver Antonio Gandy-Golden has been a reliable target for Calvert, with nine receptions for 149 yards and seven first downs. His ability to make big plays and move the chains will be vital for the Flames' offensive strategy.


In terms of defense, safety Isaac Steele has proven to be a force to be reckoned with. With two tackles, one interception, and one pass defended in the previous games, Steele's presence on the field will provide a challenge for the Scarlet Knights' offense.


Based on these statistics, it is clear that both teams have talented players who can make a significant impact on the outcome of this game. The Rutgers Scarlet Knights will rely on Johnny Langan's leadership and Isaih Pacheco's rushing abilities to secure a victory. However, they must also be wary of Liberty Flames' quarterback Stephen Calvert and running back Joshua Mack, who have proven themselves as formidable opponents.


Football fans can expect an intense battle between these two teams as they fight for victory on October 26th at SHI Stadium.
