#1. D.J. Matthews Jr. gets into a groove with 8+ catches for 100+ receiving yards
Since his impressive start to the season against Illinois, where he totaled seven catches for 109 yards, Matthews Jr. has been somewhat disappointing and hobbled to improve on that Week 1 performance. The senior wide receiver has managed just 11 catches for 96 yards in his last four games played, with just one catch for seven yards last weekend.
Tom Allen says that Matthews Jr. is getting healthy and the offense finally has its two top receivers back on the field together again. Camper will likely be the primary focus for the Rutgers defense, so I expect some fireworks from the speedy Matthews Jr.
