Rutgers enters the 2026 season with a 4.5 win total reflecting trader consensus after a 5-7 finish in 2025 and a brutal Big Ten slate. The Scarlet Knights opened with a stunning home loss to UMass, immediately pressuring expectations under Greg Schiano. A new defensive coordinator in Travis Johansen and quarterback competition between Boston College transfer Dylan Lonergan and AJ Surace introduce uncertainty after losing Athan Kaliakmanis. Skill-position standouts like WR KJ Duff and RB Antwan Raymond provide offensive hope, but depth issues and a rebuilt defense face early tests against USC, Indiana, and Michigan. Non-conference wins over Boston College and Howard remain realistic, yet the overall outlook hinges on stealing a handful of conference games against Maryland, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Nebraska, or Michigan State to reach bowl eligibility.

Only official regular-season games count. Conference championship games, bowl games, and College Football Playoff games do not count even if the NCAA recognizes them as such. Only played games resulting in a win will count toward this total.
If the listed team plays fewer games than scheduled due to cancellation, weather, forfeit, or any other reason, only actual wins recorded count toward the total; canceled or unplayed games do not count as wins.
If the 2026 NCAA Division 1 Football regular season is cancelled, postponed after December 26, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or it cannot be determined how many wins the listed team recorded within that timeframe, this market will resolve to "No".
The primary resolution source will be official NCAA and conference records (https://www.ncaa.com); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
