Northwestern-Maryland preview: Opponent Q&A with Testudo Times

If you don’t know much about Maryland football, you’re not alone. We talked with Dave Lomonico of Terrapin Times and Scout.com to learn more about Northwestern’s next opponent.

1. Is the Maryland QB position cursed? Is Bortenschlager going to play? If he doesn't play, what should we expect, if you can even answer?

Yes, the curse is real. Back in 2012, Maryland lost four—that’s right, four quarterbacks to season-ending injuries. Since then, they have not had a season where the starting signal caller has made it through the entire campaign healthy.
