Maryland football kicks off season with 38-6 win over Towson

Related Topics: Towson, Maryland

Maryland football started off firing on all cylinders — racking up 21 points in the opening 15 minutes — and held that lead throughout in a resounding 38-6 lead over Towson.

The Terps have now won three straight season openers, and Saturday’s win over the Tigers represented the largest margin of victory during that span.

Despite that, the Terps weren’t as sharp as they would have liked after a hot start. The last time they faced off against Towson in 2017, they won 61-17. With a much better roster on paper, Maryland looked sloppy at times in its first game of the 2023 season.
