If you didn’t stay up late in the Eastern or Central time zones, here is what you need to know. The Trojans clobbered the Scarlet Knights, 42-20. The game didn’t have the drama of the Dodgers’ win over the Yankees on Freddie Freeman’s grand slam in the 10th inning.
Rutgers started the season 4-0 and is now 4-4, which is the same record USC sports.
Miller Moss threw for 308 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Woody Marks rushed for 94 yards and three scores for the Trojans.
