Rutgers punter Jakob Anderson completed a 40-yard fake-punt pass to safety Jesse Ofurie against USC, extending a drive that ended in a touchdown five plays later. Anderson says he devotes time each week to throwing, working with special-teams coordinator Eddie Allen. This documents a practiced option used in this game, not a new quarterback role or a promised future call.

After the USC game, Rutgers' Anderson was averaging 48.3 yards per punt for the season. The report includes a 70-yard punt against USC that bounced into the end zone for a touchback. These are gross-distance and game-result details, not a net-punting figure or proof that every long punt improved field position.
