I read this morning that Maryland is 0-29 against ranked opponents, since joining the B10. That will probably get worse this weekend.
They beat #21 Syracuse in 2019, #23 Texas in 2018, and #23 Texas in 2017.
They haven’t beaten a ranked *conference* opponent since 2010, when they beat #21 N.C. State. They haven’t beaten a Top 15 team since 2007, when they beat both #8 Boston College and #10 Rutgers.
Obviously not pretty, but I think they have a better chance than people think this weekend. They’ve beaten Penn State in Happy Valley twice since joining the conference, and I still think the Nittany Lions are overrated. The team is always fired up for this game, going against DMV guys they’ve grown up with.
