Dylan Lonergan - Benched after UMass disaster Lonergan has been demoted to QB2 for Rutgers, as head coach Greg Schiano announced he'd start AJ Surace in Week 2 at Boston College, per Pete Nakos of On3.com.

Impact Lonergan looked lost in Week 1, and if your starting quarterback looks lost against UMass, he may not be of Big Ten caliber. The gunslinger threw three interceptions, two of which were extremely ugly throws. He also lost a fumble against the Minutemen, meaning he accounted for four turnovers in Week 1. That's simply not winning football, and so the Scarlet Knights turning to Surace for Week 2 isn't a surprise.

AJ Surace - Starting quarterback for Week 2 Surace will be Rutgers' starting quarterback over Dylan Lonergan in Friday's game at Boston College, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Rutgers' quarterback switch comes after Surace played relatively well in place of Dylan Lonergan, who left the team's upset loss to Massachusetts mid-game. The former completed six of nine passes for 77 yards and one touchdown, giving Rutgers some life against the MAC side in Week 1. Surace will look to continue the positive momentum against what should be a more difficult Power Conference team in Boston College.

KJ Duff - Accounts fof most of offense in loss Duff accrued nine receptions (on 16 targets) for 196 yards and three touchdowns during Thursday's 37-21 defeat versus Massachusetts.

Impact Duff was the team's offensive engine during the surprise loss and ended four yards shy of a 200-yard game. Despite the team's disappointing result, Duff's line was among the elite tier of offensive producers in Week 1.

AJ Surace - Effective in place of Lonergan Surace completed 6 of 9 passes for 77 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 37-21 defeat against Massachusetts.

Impact A quarterback change could be looming after Dylan Lonergan's struggles. Surace, who competed for the top role in camp, connected on 66.6 percent of his passes and lobbed a TD pass, looking far more efficient than Lonergan in limited action.

Dylan Lonergan - Uneven in upset loss Lonergan was 16-for-29 passing for 242 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions during Thursday's 37-21 loss to Massachusetts. He also had seven rushes for -14 yards.

Impact Rutgers' defense was atrocious, but Lonergan didn't do much to help matters. The Boston College transfer was accurate in the opening quarter, but as the fumbles, interceptions, and inaccurate passes piled up, the outcome became increasingly obvious. If he continues to falter, he may lose his job to AJ Surace.
