Washington at Rutgers Line, Spread, & Total
The odds below are according to Action Network and updated as of Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 12:00 PM ET.
- Moneyline (ML): Washington +124 | Rutgers -148
- Against the Spread (ATS): Washington +3 (-110) | Rutgers -3 (-110)
- Over/Under (O/U): Over 46 (-110) | Under 46 (-110)
Rutgers is 0-2 all-time against Washington following a home-and-home series in 2016-17. During those two losses, Rutgers was outscored 78-27. In 2017, it was a 30-14 loss for the Scarlet Knights but they were able to cover a massive spread of 28 points. Both teams are in very different positions from 2017.
The Scarlet Knights return home after covering the last two games. Rutgers was a three-point underdog on the road against Virginia Tech and was able to win the game outright. Rutgers could be 3-0 ATS this season depending on where you caught the number in the season-opener against Howard. Rutgers will be a field-goal favorite against a Washington team that has plenty of turnover from last season.
The Huskies made a run to the National Championship Game last season but lost plenty of production. This includes head coach Kalen DeBoer (Alabama) and quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (Atlanta Falcons).
Washington is currently 2-2 ATS this season. The Huskies are coming off a 24-5 win over a lowly Northwestern team. This came after failing to cover the spread since the season-opener. Washington has went through some transitional pains with a new core and will now take the cross-country trip to take on Rutgers.
The total is set at 46, which is not uncommon for Rutgers’ games, but Washington is the team that has been playing low-scoring games. All four Huskie games have gone under the number this season. Washington has struggled to get the offense going and has ben stingy defensively. On the other hand, Rutgers has seen two out of three games go over. The one under played was against Howard and it would have went over if the Scarlet Knights kicked the extra point following the late-game touchdown.
There is plenty of respect around this Rutgers defense in terms of the total and some skepticism remains offensively. For now, totals seem to be a no-play for Rutgers but the Scarlet Knights should be able to defend home field. If you are starting to believe, take Rutgers with the points.

Week Ahead in Washington: March 1
WASHINGTON (Gray DC) – Operation “Epic Fury” — the weekend military operations carried out by the U.S. and Israel against targets in Iran — tops the agenda for Congress as lawmakers return to Washington.
Sunday, President Donald Trump said the new leadership in Iran wants to talk to the Trump Administration.
Democrats in both chambers called for Congress to return as soon as possible for classified briefings on Iran, followed by a move to vote on the War Powers Act. The Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war on another country.
Congress’ return to Washington was originally delayed due to the start of the 2026 midterm elections cycle.
Tuesday, voters in Arkansas, North Carolina and Texas head to the polls for primary elections.
North Carolina and Texas are drawing significant attention, as both states are facing congressional redistricting and competitive primary races for Senate seats.
In Texas, incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R) is facing primary challenges from state Attorney General Ken Paxton and Rep. Wesley Hunt. On the Democratic side, Rep. Jasmine Crockett is facing state Rep. James Talarico.
In North Carolina, candidates are vying to replacing retiring Sen. Thom Tillis (R) . They include former Governor Roy Cooper (D) and former Republican National Committee Chair Michael Whatley.
Also this week, the Rev. Jesse Jackson is laid to rest. He will be honored Wednesday in Washington before a final memorial service Saturday. Jackson died Feb. 17.
