Beating Maryland might not come quite as easily this year as it did for Ohio State last year.
Ohio State steamrolled Maryland last year, defeating the Terrapins in their own home stadium by a score of 62-3. But even though the Buckeyes will be back in their home stadium for Saturday’s game, which is also this year’s homecoming game at Ohio Stadium, Ohio State coach Urban Meyer says he expects a tougher challenge from the Terps this year.
"They went down to Austin, Texas and beat Texas. A very talented Texas team. And then they went up with the third-string quarterback and beat one of the top defenses in the country at Minnesota," Meyer said of Maryland.
