The Scarlet Knights are 1-3 there in games with fans in the stands — they won in overtime during the COVID-impacted 2020 season — with the losses coming by an average margin of 27 points.
“We haven’t had a ton of success against them, especially playing on the road,” Schiano said this week. “So we have our hands full.”
