For the fourth straight week the Rutgers Scarlet Knights football program moved up in the latest AP Poll, which was released Sunday afternoon. Rutgers is ranked the 18th-best team in the country after being No. 19 last week.

On Saturday, Rutgers (7-0, 3-0) defeated the Temple Owls, 35-10, in a Big East Conference game. This is just the fifth time in program history Rutgers has not lost a game through seven games.
