First, good experience for the younger/newer players. Second, and more importantly, the 'stick' that Durkin can use to make sure they understand a game is 4 quarters and need to finish strong to beat better teams. Overall pleased with where this team appears to be. Not buying tickets to National Championship game, but I think they can be competitive. Sorry I'm late with a response. Yes, I'm pleased with the first 2 games. Not much to complain about. I'd like to shore up the run defense a bit. But, yes, late scores will give DJ something to give them something to think about so they don't get complacent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btfoom Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Check out this news: MARYLAND & RUTGERS ANNOUNCE “BIG TEN BATTLE IN THE BRONX” http://www.umterps.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=29700&ATCLID=211168696 COLLEGE PARK, Md. – The University of Maryland athletics department announced Tuesday it will take part in the “Big Ten Battle in the Bronx,” a football and wrestling doubleheader between Rutgers and Maryland, at Yankee Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 4, 2017.

Bozo the kKklown Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Dont mean to steal your thunder @braveonthewarpath but the basketball missed out on a 5 star big man. http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/sports/college/msu/mens-basketball/2016/09/15/msu-izzo-hope-land-first-2017-recruit-jaren-jackson-jr/90399542/ Quote Coming off his best incoming talent haul and a Hall of Fame induction, Tom Izzo has continued Michigan State’s recent recruiting run. Jaren Jackson Jr. of La Lumiere School in LaPorte, Indiana, has chosen the Spartans this morning on his 17th birthday. The big man picked MSU over Purdue, Notre Dame, Maryland, and Georgetown are the 6-foot-10, 225-pound wing’s other finalists. His daddy went to Georgetown and played in the NBA. They werent even in his final list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was their number one guy for this class, and they put a lot of time and effort into him. Gonna have to come back big time, maybe sign the 7 footer from GA.

btfoom Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Doesn't matter what the final score of this game is. Michigan beat UCF like a rented mule. UMd can't even score when they start the second half on the UCF 33 yard line. The O-Line keeps giving up sacks and the Defense can't stop a 3rd and 13. This team looks like a 4-8 right now. Can't play Howard every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't play Howard every week. I dunno. To me, this game is good for the Terps growth as a team. The boys need an opponent that puts up a fight in order for them to gain confidence in themselves overall. Let's face it; Maryland ain't Winning the Big 10 this year, but Beating this team is definitely a step in the right direction. That being said, losing to UCF would be crushing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in that context, UCF must be viewed differently by the Turtles. New regime, year 1 of a rebuild - I would agree that Maryland has no business taking Central Florida lightly. These guys are not going to be an easy out. Edited September 18, 2016 by Diehard Otis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Hills is regressing to his usual "awful" self. Taking too many sacks. They look lethargic. This game is reminiscent of a Randy Edsell coached team. UCF went 0-12 last year. This would be embarrassing to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that UCF had a poor year last season, but they're playing pretty damn hard tonight. Gotta figure they had this one circled as the ballgame they'd make their mark in. Right now Maryland is driving. A grind-it-out Win would be huge for Durkin...but conference play might get ugly with Hills taking the snaps.

btfoom Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 These last 2 calls have been so bad that I have to believe that they have to be intentional. There can't be pass interference when the ball is still in the QB hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
