Rutgers lost left guard and starting offensive lineman Bryan Felter for the season ahead of the Nebraska game, according to NJ Advance Media.

Rutgers experienced cohesion on the offensive line over the course of the first four games, leading them to a 4-0 record. Now, Felter is out for the season and is expected to receive a redshirt, according to the report.

Rutgers and Nebraska kick off at 4:00 p.m. ET.

Felter sustained a knee injury in last Friday night’s win over Washington in Piscataway. He managed to only miss four snaps and returned in the second half.

Over the course of four games, Felter logged 257 snaps and is likely to be replaced by Dantae Chin or Taj White on the offensive line.

“I think we’re doing a great job up front,” Rutgers’ center Gus Zilinskas to Pat Lanni and Brian Fonseca. “We got to keep getting better every week. Our communication especially has been really good so far. We just need to keep working on that day in and day out.”

Rutgers OL Bryan Felter out for season

Without Felter, the Rutgers offensive line will have to regroup ahead of the biggest game of the season. Head coach Greg Schiano knows going to Lincoln to try and stay undefeated is a monumental task.

Especially for his offensive line to provide running lanes and pass protection.

“Defensively, I think their defensive line is stout,” Schiano said Monday. “Robinson, 9, and then 0 and 1, I think it’s Butler and I don’t know if I’ll say this right, Hutmacher, those three guys, as physical as you’re going to see. The linebackers, we kind of know one of them, he’s an Irvington kid that we recruited, really good player in Gbayor, and then I think the secondary is really well-coached. I mean, they play together. They play — you can see they know what they are doing with the scheme.

“So I think their defense is one of the better ones in America, and they certainly understand what their defensive coordinator wants them to do. Tony is a heck of a coach, and I think that it’s a well-coached team. It’s a talented team and we are going to play them in a very, very tough place to play.”
