With the college football calendar beginning to flip from nonconference to conference play, team social media pages got off another round of quality trolls.
The Rutgers Scarlet Knights continue to roll this season, with their latest triumph a 26-23 win over the Virginia Tech Hokies on the road in Blacksburg. The Scarlet Knights raced to an early 14-0 first-quarter lead, before sealing the win via a 36-yard field goal by Jai Patel with just under two minutes left.
After the game, Rutgers’ social media team paid homage to a line from Metallica’s “Enter Sandman,” which is played in Virginia Tech’s Lane Stadium before games.

Here’s a look at some of the best postgame jabs from Week 4 of the college football season.
One of the early surprises this college football season has been the Army Black Knights, who are off to a 3-0 start. Army continued its momentum in its Week 4 clash with the Rice Owls, as a 21-point second quarter propelled the Black Knights to an assertive victory at Michie Stadium.
After the game Army poked fun at its record against teams with Rice’s Owl mascot — the Black Knights also dispatched the Florida Atlantic Owls 24-7 in Week 2.
