Game #7 It’s the 100th Homecoming day for the Terps

The Maryland Terrapins led 17-10 last week to open the second half in their game against No. 3 Ohio State, but it was not enough, unfortunately, for the Terps as they could not play mistake-free football in that second half. The Terrapins take their 5-1 record back to College Park, Maryland for their 100th Homecoming Day in team history. Today’s opponent is against Illinois in a Big-Ten matchup.

Game #4 Terrapins on the road at Michigan State

The Maryland Terrapins take their 3-0 record on the road today for their first B1G matchup of the season and on this Saturday is against the Spartans of Michigan State. The 3:30 pm kickoff will hopefully be an opportunity for the Terps to grab an early lead after their first three games of the season started with quick deficits. Sure, wins are all about finishing the game with a lead, but leading from start to finish would be a good goal for this team. These early season games go a long way in preparation for a long season, and each early win gets you that much closer to a national ranking and a coveted Bowl Game.

We are in Charlotte, North Carolina and a day from New Year’s Eve for the Duke’s Mayo Bowl between the Maryland Terrapins (7-5) and the 23rd ranked N.C. State Wolfpack (8-4) for a showdown of former ACC foes. The Terrapins and the Wolfpack played each other every year between 1956 and 2013 for 58 years until the Terps left the ACC for the Big Ten conference, and wouldn’t you know it, the teams have a head-to-head record of 33-33 all-time.

Game #12 Final regular season game for Maryland football!

Photo by Sol Tucker for TalkTerrapins

The Maryland Terrapins are home for the final game of the regular season against Rutgers with the hopes that the Terps can get a good Bowl Game with a decisive win today. Last week the Terps showed the country that Maryland is for real after they took the game against the undefeated No. 2 ranked Ohio State Buckeyes, to the final minutes in a 3-point game. While the Terps lost, they showed that they are close to being a real force in football.

As expected, the 6-5 Terps are huge favorites at 14 points against the 4-7 Rutgers Scarlet Knights. It is a game the Terps are clearly expected to win and must win.

Game #11 Terps take on the No. 2 team in the country!

The Maryland Terrapins are back home after getting pummeled in consecutive weeks by Wisconsin and Penn State. This week’s matchup is the toughest of the season against the undefeated Ohio State Buckeyes, a team ranked No. 2 in the country.

The Terps have QB Taulia Tagovailoa back as the starter after he suffered an MCL sprain against Indiana five weeks ago, but he hasn’t shown the mobility we are used to seeing from him and that was part of the issue in the shutout thumping by Penn State last week .

As expected, the 6-4 Terps are huge underdogs at 26 points against the 10-0 Ohio State Buckeyes. This is a game that would take a miracle for Maryland to win, but some would point to how Maryland almost got the win against Michigan on the road.

Red shirt freshman Billy Edwards Jr. entered last week’s game late and he will be Tagovailoa’s backup again today. Edwards was a transfer from Wake Forest and grew up nearby in Fairfax, Virginia.
