Maryland football vs. Rutgers preview

Maryland football stands at 5-6 as it enters the final week of the season, just one win away from a bowl game. The Terps’ opponent this week, the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, find themselves in the exact same position: one win away from a trip to a bowl game.

“I’m just glad we’ve got fans that are disappointed that we’re fighting for a 6-6 season,” head coach Michael Locksley said. “That to me is something in itself from where we were when I got here to where we are now.”

Maryland and Rutgers both collected wins over Illinois and Indiana in conference play while both of its other remaining three wins came against nonconference opponents to kick off the season.
