Rutgers and Maryland in freefall: Who does Vegas favor?

Related Topics: Maryland

Rutgers and Maryland entered the season in a pretty similar place, but there is a difference between the teams of almost two touchdowns at the finish line.

At least that's how bookmakers see it.

Maryland was installed by VegasInsider.com as a 12.5-point favorite over Rutgers ahead of Saturday's regular-season finale in College Park, Md.

Both teams are sputtering coming into the game, with Maryland coming off four straight losses, including the last three to Big Ten powers Ohio State, Michigan and Nebraska by a combined margin of 149-10.
