Predict the Next Terps FB Victory

[TonySoprano]

Well, Locksley has 3 wins so far, which matches his entire career head coaching record.   Two of the three were against those rugged Howard U Bisons and that perennial powerhouse from Joysey, Rutgers.
Remaining schedule.  Which game do the Terps win?  As for me, I'll make my pick when I see the 2020 schedule.

Sat, Oct 26	@20 Minnesota
Sat, Nov 2	vs16 Michigan
Sat, Nov 9	@4 Ohio State
Sat, Nov 23	vsNebraska
Sat, Nov 30	@Michigan State

With the way the D is playing, I agree. It will be in 2020.

Minnesota 52-10

I went to MD in the early 80s and back then,  the Homecoming opponent was one that the Terps had a reasonable chance to beat.  This year, it's Michigan.   Bringing back the Bobby Ross era uniforms from my undergraduate years won't add a single point to the scoreboard.

Nope. Honestly all it will do is tarnish a uniform that was worn with pride because the team was not a laughing stock. I would not be surprise to see a lot of transfers after this disastrous season. 

The DMV has been lost to Penn State and until they hire a coach with a winning background who can convince kids that Maryland is the place that can help them get to the NFL then this program will continue to be a laughing stock afterthought in the Big 10.

Spending tens of millions on turning Cole Field House into a "Performance Center" will never pay off as an investment.   Now they want to do it all over again building one for the basketball teams.   Message to that idiot, Dr. Loh.  Fundraise to fix the dorms instead.  Does another student have to die?

Ohio State, which just thrashed Wisconsin 38-7, is a 44.5 point favorite against the visiting Terps.  The Terps were down 7-0 in less than 30 seconds into their Homecoming game.  Maryland, which lost by an identical 38-7 score to Michigan, still remains optimistic..if you believe what Locksley's shoveling.

“We just got to keep building. We’re headed in the right direction, we just got to keep going. There’s little things that we need to fix, but we’re almost there," he said. “As I told our team, I thought we took a step forward in terms of the type of effort that we need to play with for 60 minutes and playing with heart, pride and I saw that all the way to the end of the last drive ... I think we can build with that type of fight," he said. "

In their 3 victories, the Terps held a 190-27 advantage.   It's 76-243 in the 6 losses.

Ohio State beat the #20 Cincinnati bears 42-0.  I'd but shocked if Terps cover the 44.5.

OSU covered - with 11:28 to go in the 3rd.  49-0.   2nd half, OSU using 2nd string and still a huge mismatch.

[TonySoprano]

73-14.  Terps outscored in Big10 121-303.   Take away the Rutgers game and it's 73-296. 

How LOH can they go?  

[Can_of_corn]

The question I have is how did they manage to look good in the first game?

[ArtVanDelay]

It would be a relief if they shut down the football program.  What a disaster.

Oh I just made that comment in another thread.   I don't see any point in competing in football in the big ten.   They could be a trend-setter among major universities.   End football and men's basketball concentrate on sports that aren't corrupt yet.

HOME game for the Terps and they get demolished by Nebraska 54 -7.
Nebraska came in with a 4 game losing streak.  Not anymore.  Largest victory for Nebraska in 10 years in the conference. 
4th time MD gives up 52+  in a game this season.   MD loses 6th straight, only MSU left to put the season out of its misery.

In 2015, Locksley was the interim coach after Edsall was fired.  The Terps went 1-5 with the only win being Rutgers.  For his career, MD is 4-13, two of the four victories were Rutgers.  

[ArtVanDelay]

Lox needs to be fired after that display against an awful Nebraska team.  Not that it matters, since he'll just be replaced with another third-rate coach.

Oye! Did some fact checking on my earlier post on University of Maryland being way more expensive than most other out of state tuition fees in the Big 10.

No not really.
