Coughs up three turnovers in loss Wimsatt completed 10 of 16 passes for 130 yards and one interception during Saturday's 27-6 defeat versus Penn State. He also had 17 rushes for 31 yards and two fumbles.

Impact Wimsatt recorded his second multi-turnover game of the season, including his first two fumbles lost of the year. The 6-foot-3 junior was also ineffective as a rusher for the third week in a row, as he's just 2.4 yards per attempt across these contests against three extremely difficult opposing defenses. Wimsatt totaled 14 touchdowns, 1,134 passing yards and 362 passing yards over the first eight games of the season. He'll look to turn things back around during this coming Saturday's regular-season finale against Maryland.

Capped by Iowa defense Wimsatt was 7-for-18 passing for 93 yards and one interception during Saturday's 22-0 loss to Iowa.

Impact Wimsatt logged his least productive outing of the season while facing Iowa's defense, which has been one of the best units in not only the Big Ten but all of FBS. The Scarlet Knights' signal-caller was also held below 100 yards of total offense for the first time this season, as the Hawkeyes shut down the Rutgers rushing game that has carried this offense throughout the year. Wimsatt averaged 140.3 passing yards and 45.7 rushing yards per game while totaling 15 touchdowns over the first nine games of the year. Yet, his production could take quite a hit once again while facing another one of the country's best defenses in Penn State this coming Saturday.

Can't do enough in loss Wimsatt completed 10 of 25 passes for 129 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 35-16 defeat to Ohio State. He also had 13 rushes for 49 yards.

Impact Wimsatt once again struggled as a passer in Week 10, completing less than 50 percent of his passes for the fourth game in a row. The 6-foot-3 dual-threat quarterback has largely made up for his deficiencies as a passer with his legs, and that once again proved true against Ohio State, as he logged his second-most rushing attempts of any game so far this season. Yet, Wimsatt didn't have his most efficient performance on the ground either. Rutgers' schedule over the next two weeks will not get any easier, as back-to-back road matchups against Iowa followed by Penn State could be one of the toughest slates of opposing defenses as any team in the country.

Rushes for three touchdowns Wimsatt was 5-for-12 passing for 39 yards during Saturday's 31-14 win versus Indiana. He also had 16 rushes for 143 yards with three touchdowns.

Impact Wimsatt had his biggest statistical performance of the season, as the Rutgers' rushing game had its way with Indiana's defense. The junior dual-threat quarterback led this rushing attack with season highs in carries and rushing yards, and he also tallied all three of the rushing touchdowns for the Scarlet Knights. Wimsatt's season low in passing attempts is an indication of how Rutgers most prefers to operate its run-first offense with the 6-foot-3 junior. This unit will face a significantly tougher opponent against Ohio State in Week 9.
