Ohio State vs. Maryland Football Game Canceled After Terrapins' COVID-19 Spike

Saturday's football game between the third-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes and Maryland Terrapins has been canceled.

In a statement from Maryland athletic director Damon Evans, all of his team's activities have been suspended for the time being "due to an elevated number of COVID-19 cases" within the program:

"There is nothing more important than the health and well-being of our student-athletes, coaches and staff. We realize that this news is disappointing to all of the Maryland fans out there who were looking forward to the Terps taking on an outstanding Ohio State team, but the responsible thing for us to do is pause football activities, given the number of positive cases currently in our program.
