PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- Fourteen points down last week. Trailing by 21 this week.Overcoming big deficits hasnt been a problem for Rutgers lately, especially with Janarion Grant coming to the rescue with big plays.The senior wide receiver threw for a touchdown and had a go-ahead 69-yard punt return for another score as Rutgers rallied from an early 21-point deficit and defeated New Mexico 37-28 on Saturday.Halfback Robert Martin rushed for a career-high 169 yards, including an 80-yard touchdown, and Chris Laviano threw a 75-yard scoring pass to Jawuan Harris in helping the Scarlet Knights (2-1) overcome a big deficit for the second straight week.Man, Janarions different, said Martin, who averaged 8.0 yards. I love going out there with him, competing with him. Even at practice man, he wants to win at everything he does and I like that because thats how I am and just knowing that when he gets the ball in his hands he can take it the distance.David Bonagura kicked three second-half field goals, including two in the final 5:30, in keeping new coach Chris Ash unbeaten at home.Daryl Chestnut scored on a 19-yard run, Austin Apodaca threw a 36-yard TD pass to Patrick Reed and Lamar Jordan scored on a 52-yard run in giving the Lobos (1-2) a 21-0 lead late in the first quarter. Richard McQuarley scored on a 22-yard fourth-quarter run to get New Mexico within 31-28, but Bonagura added two field goals to put the game out of reach.Grant had three touchdowns in rallying the Scarlet Knights against Howard last week, and he had a hand in three scores against the Lobos, with a late 33-yard punt return setting up the final field goal.We talked about it after the game, weve got have a maniacal attitude of doing your job and doing the little things right, New Mexico coach Bob Davie said. I feel better about our team right now than I did last Saturday from a standpoint of fighting against a good opponent. Again, we walk out of here with our heads held high and we have a chance to be a good team.Grants biggest play was the punt return 1:04 before halftime with the score tied at 21-all.Grant fielded a Corey Bojoquez punt at his 31, went left and then reversed his field and went 69 yards down the right side for his six touchdown of the season. It was his third career punt return for a score and eighth overall. He has scored on five kickoff returns.THE TAKEAWAYNEW MEXICO: The Lobos could have been 3-0 heading into a bye week. After beating South Dakota, New Mexico blew a 31-22 fourth-quarter lead after New Mexico State last weekend and gave away an even bigger margin this week. The Lobos had a chance to rally late last week and game up short. They came back from a 10-point deficit this week and also came up short.RUTGERS: With the Big Ten Conference season starting next week, Rutgers has to get off to better starts if it wants to be competitive. The Scarlet Knights fell behind No. 8 Washington 24-0 and trailed in both games at home.Cant say enough about our players, for the second week in a row, we come out of the gate and we get down but nobody flinched, Ash said. Everybody believes in themselves, in each other, in our plan, and we just kept going. We made the plays that we needed to.BULLET: Ash is going to be second guessed after inserting quarterback Zach Allen into the game in the fourth quarter with Rutgers leading 31-28 with 7:48 to play. There seemed to be nothing wrong with Laviano. The Scarlet Knights got a 33-yard field goal from Bonagura but that was set by an unsportsmanlike penalty against the Lobos.UP NEXTNEW MEXICO: The Lobos have a bye week and face San Jose State at home in their Mountain West Conference opener on Oct. 1.RUTGERS: The Scarlet Knights play their third straight home game and face No.13 Iowa in their Big Ten Conference opener on Sept. 24.---AP College Football Website: www.collegefootball.orgDrew Lock Womens Jersey .

Imagine Odell Backham Jr. back there! He did it in the Pro Bowl.The truth is the Giants need some bodies in the secondary, and its not just safety. They are hurting at cornerback, too.Lets start at safety. Rookie starter Darian Thompson missed last weekends game with a foot injury. He is still wearing a boot. His backup, Nat Berhe, is in the concussion protocol after being hurt this past week against the Redskins.Second-year safety Mykkele Thompson went on injured reserve on Sept. 20 with a knee injury.That leaves starter Landon Collins, Andrew Adams, who was signed off the practice squad late last week, and veteran cornerback Leon Hall, who has shifted to the back line.Janoris Jenkins is the only healthy starting cornerback. Dominique Rodgers Cromartie (groin) and first-round draft pick Eli Apple (hamstring) had to leave Sundays game. They did not practice on Thursday although they worked outside with the teams trainers.If neither cant go, veteran backup Trevin Wade and rookie Michael Hunter are next up.The only good thing for the Giants is that the Vikings are 31st in the league in offense and 28th in passing.The plan is the faces change but the expectations remain the same, McAdoo said when asked about who would start with Collins at safety.Adams would seem to be next in line, but he has very little experience. Hall is a nine-year veteran who says he could make the adjustment.Beckham would not mind a crack at safety.I wouldnt mind hitting someone, said Beckham, who has gotten his fair share of fines for illegal hits as a receiver. Theres a lot less rules when youre on defense. They expect the defense to be the aggressor. I think as an offensive player, when you come out here and are very aggressive its a little different from what they usually see.Collins, who started all 16 games as a rookie last season, never worked with Adams in training camp.ddddddddddddAdams was at the lower end of the depth chart and was among the final cuts. He was signed to the practice squad and was elevated to the roster last week with the injuries to both Thompsons.Collins said that he, Adams, and Hall need a crash course on communicating.He is agile, he is quick, he is fast, Collins said of Adams. He knows what he is doing and he is assertive.Adams had an unsettling NFL debut. He was called for a fourth-quarter unnecessary roughness penalty that wiped out a punt block that would have given New York the ball at the Washington 18, trailing 26-24.In the days after the game, Adams wondered whether the mistake would cost him. Not only did he stay, he now has a chance to start.Im just grateful for the opportunity and I am going to make the best out of it, he said. Thats what I have been waiting for. This is what you play football for. I didnt come here to watch. Im here to play. Thats my mentality.Hall just as easily could play opposite Collins.Being next to him, of course, he is going to know what he needs to be doing because he has played the game for so many years and he knows exactly what he has done, Collins said.Apple, who got his first start last week, said he felt better than the day before. He said he jogged a little, but refused to say he felt good.Rodgers-Cromartie, who has never had a groin injury, insisted on Wednesday that he would play on Monday night.Wade, who played in all 16 games last season with three starts, is ready to step in.You just have to be ready and make the most of the opportunity, Wade said.Game notesRB Rashad Jennings (hand) was limited at practice.
