CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. — In one swift motion, Rutgers quarterback Evan Simon stood up from his game-sealing kneel down, turned around, took two steps and exploded into running back Kyle Monangai’s mid-air embrace. Tight end Johnny Langan, back at a place he once called home, pumped his fist before being mobbed by his offensive linemen.
The rest of the roster soon spilled out from the sidelines at Alumni Stadium, spawning a celebration that moved toward the stands, where a few thousand euphoric Scarlet Knights fans were basking in a successful trip up north that culminated in a stunning 22-21 season-opening win over Boston College.
