On its ninth play in the season-opening game against Richmond, Maryland threw an interception. In retrospect, it's hard to believe it took that long.
It's been a lost season for the 2-8 Terrapins, who fired head coach Randy Edsall after the first six games. But at least this team has a chance to do something historic, if not for the reasons it would like to remember.
Maryland's turnover rate -- and in particular its interceptions -- are approaching rarely-seen territory. Truly, this year, you can't spell Terrapins without I-N-T.
