Ohio State football is headed to Piscataway, N.J., to play its first game at Rutgers, and apparently there is some excitement for the matchup.

The Scarlet Knights athletics department announced Wednesday the game at High Point Solutions Stadium is sold out.

This marks the fourth sellout in six Big Ten home games since Rutgers joined the league last year.

It will be the seventh sellout since a stadium expansion project was completed in 2009.

Rutgers set a stadium record with 53,774 fans for Penn State's visit last season.

Meanwhile, Ohio State figures to be in for a change of pace from last week when it played in front of a home crowd of 108,423 fans while beating Penn State 38-10.
