Game Outlook

It’s not a stretch to say that this road trip to Columbus is the start of a brand new season for terrapin football, given the previous week. Even though the Buckeyes are listed as a 20-plus point favorite on Saturday, there’s a prime opportunity for the Terps to come out of this road game with re-established confidence in the direction of this season, if not a win. How will Taulia bounce back after that Iowa performance? Can the staff compensate for losing Dontay Demus Jr for the season and keep the production that’s been the early hallmark of this Terrapin offense going? One way or another, the direction of the terps Big Ten quest changes on Saturday. Look for a bounce-back performance from this squad and staff as a collective.
