PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Greg Schiano has been trying to close the gap Rutgers faces in the Big Ten Conference since returning for a second stint as the football coach late in 2019.

A better-than-expected first season and Texas A&M out of the postseason because of a COVID-19 outbreak allowed Rutgers into the Gator Bowl in 2020 with a 5-7 record, The tiebreaker was the team's academic performance

That's the highlight so far . Schiano and Rutgers are still lagging behind in a brutal conference that will be more competitive next year with the addition of Pac-12 programs.

Through three years, Rutgers has posted a 12-22 record under Schiano with a 6-21 record in the league. The Scarlet Knights were were 4—8 last year, with a 1-8 mark in the conference. It was a year in which the offense was one of the worst in college football and coordinator Sean Gleeson was fired during the season.
