Dodd and Brantley crucial in Terps' comeback win

COLLEGE PARK — Many will remember Maryland beating Oklahoma State, 71-70, Saturday night at Xfinity Center by erasing a 12-point deficit in the last 12 minutes, and that junior guard Melo Trimble hit two crucial free throws with 9.4 seconds remaining.

Senior center Damonte Dodd and junior guard Jaylen Brantley will hardly be mentioned when discussing the fifth second-half comeback of the season for the now 8-1 Terps.

Without this pair of unlikely heroes, though, Maryland likely would have lost its second straight game, perhaps by another big margin, as they did against Pittsburgh on Tuesday in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge.
