Does training-camp mentality change for Rutgers with Norfolk State looming?

PISCATAWAY, New Jersey -- In 2012, Kyle Flood entered his first training camp as Rutgers head coach knowing that a road game with Tulane awaited.

A trip to Fresno State was the first game on the 2013 docket.

And last season the Scarlet Knights had another cross-country trek as they traveled to Washington State to start their campaign.

After opening on the road against quality Football Bowl Subdivision competition in each of the past three years, the Scarlet Knights will play host to Football Championship Subdivision (Division I-AA)-foe Norfolk State on Sept. 5.

Rutgers has outscored Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) foes, 376-39, in nine games since 2006. Included in that ledger are three shutout wins over Norfolk State by a combined 128-0 score.
