Spartan Stadium, East Lansing, MI
WATCH: Michigan State K Jonathan Kim Reflects on SeasonEAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State sixth-year senior kicker Jonathan Kim proved to be one of the Spartans' best kickers in recent memory...
Ian Strong - Catches TD in regular-season finaleStrong recorded four receptions (on eight targets) for 55 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 41-14 victory over Michigan State.
ImpactStrong caught the lone touchdown pass from quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis, who threw just 22 passes as the Scarlet Knights ran roughshod over the Spartans in Week 14. The sophomore wideout still split the top target share with senior Dymere Miller, who also logged four catches on seven targets. These two clearly led Rutgers' passing game this regular season, though Strong logged just 20 fewer catches (37) despite logging 37 fewer targets (67). Rutgers will next play during the team's upcoming bowl game this postseason.

Dymere Miller - Catches four passes Week 14Miller caught four of seven targets for 48 yards during Saturday's 41-14 win over Michigan State.
ImpactMiller's targets went down for the fourth week in a row, as the Scarlet Knights pounded the ball with running back Kyle Monangai in Week 14. The senior wideout fell slightly behind sophomore wideout Ian Strong for a team-high in targets (eight), though the former scored the team's lone receiving touchdown on a nine-yard hookup with quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis in the third quarter. Miller finishes the 2024 regular season with 57 catches (on 104 targets) for 731 yards and four touchdowns, including 31 catches for 382 yards and three scores over the final five weeks. The 7-5 Scarlet Knights will now wait to hear what bowl game they'll play in this postseason.

Antwan Raymond - Scores twice in blowout winRaymond notched nine carries for 71 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 41-14 win versus Michigan State.
ImpactRaymond had his most efficient outing of the year as the Scarlet Knights ran all over the Spartans. The true freshman running back averaged a season-high 7.9 yards per carry while operating behind bell-cow back Kyle Monangai, who had 31 carries for 129 yards and a touchdown. Raymond also put Rutgers up 23-7 with a 13-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, and he capped the game with a five-yard score. Raymond should continue to serve as RB2 in the 7-5 Scarlet Knights' upcoming bowl game this postseason.

Kyle Monangai - Tallies 31 carries in Week 14 winMonangai notched 31 carries for 129 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 41-14 victory versus Michigan State.
ImpactMonangai carried the Rutgers offense like never before as he set a new career-high for rushing attempts for the second week in a row. The 5-foot-9 senior came through with his most rushing yards since Week 5 against Washington, and put the Scarlet Knights on the board in the first quarter with his 13th rushing touchdown of the season. In 11 appearances this regular season, Monangai totaled career-highs in carries (256), rushing yards (1,279) and rushing touchdowns. The bell-cow back should be in line to lead the 7-5 Scarlet Knights' ground game one last time during the team's TBA bowl game. However, should he sit out for any reason, then true freshman Antwan Raymond should step up as RB1 after tallying nine carries for 71 yards and two touchdowns of his own Week 14.

Athan Kaliakmanis - Plays easy role Week 14Kaliakmanis completed 13 of 22 passes for 157 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 41-14 victory versus Michigan State. He also had five rushes for 17 yards.
ImpactKaliakmanis threw fewer than 30 passes for the first time since Week 5 versus Washington, as the Scarlet Knights pounded the ball behind bell-cow back Kyle Monangai's 32 carries. Rutgers finished with its most points since Week 2 against Akron, but three of the team's four touchdowns came on the ground in Week 14. Kaliakmanis threw his 17th passing touchdown of the season with a nine-yard hookup to wideout Ian Strong in the third quarter. The senior signal-caller finished his first regular season at Rutgers with career-highs in passing yards (2,459), rushing yards (233) and total touchdowns (20). The 7-5 Scarlet Knights will await to hear their bowl destination this coming postseason.
