The Quick Lane Bowl could easily become an offensive shootout as both the Rutgers Knights and North Carolina Tar Heels have two of the worst defenses in the league. In the Knights first season in the Big Ten, they faired well with a 7-5 record, but went 3-5 in conference play. The Tar Heels did not look much better in the ACC after being the popular pick to win the ACC Coastal. Now the two teams face off for one more win in bowl season.

Rutgers and North Carolina have two of the worst defenses. The Scarlett Knicks are ranked 92nd nationally in points allowed, giving up 30.9 per game. The Tar Heels rank 119th nationally giving up 38.9 points per game. However, the edge could be given to Rutgers who do have a better offense in this matchup. 

Quarterback Gary Nova is looking to finish his career with Rutgers with one more win. He is likely looking forward to the weak defense of the Tar Heels. He has 2,667 yards and 20 touchdowns with just 12 interceptions. Wide receiver Leonte Carroo has developed into his top target with 1,043 receiving yards on the year with 10 touchdown catches. However, top running back Desmon Peoples is out with an upper body injury meaning Robert Martin and Josh Hicks will take care of the ground game, combining for 422 yards in the past three games.

North Carolina's offense averages 34.3 points per game which ranked them third in the ACC. Quarterback Marquise Williams thre for 2,870 yards and 20 touchdowns on the season while being dynamic with 737 yards and 12 touchdowns rushing as well. However, their defense is not keeping them in games, giving up 70 points in the month of September alone. Their offense is going to have a hard time as Rutgers is expecting to get back Darius Hamilton is expected to return. The Scarlett Knicks are the favorites in this game, but the Tar Heels have a dynamic quarterback that could test the Rutgers defense.
