The Streak Is Over
Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports The Maryland Terrapins have beaten Penn State twice since joining the Big Ten. Both of those wins have come after hard fought losses against Ohio State.
In 2014, after a double overtime thriller, the Lions played lethargic football, and gave Maryland their first win over Penn State since 1961, the second win in series history. Fast-forward to 2020, and Maryland, once again, took advantage of a lethargic game by the Nittany Lions and picked up its largest margin of victory in the three wins, a 35-19 laugher that wasn’t as close as the score indicated.
