Report: Virginia and Maryland to play in the 2018 ACC–Big Ten Challenge

The Virginia Cavaliers will take on their old rivals, the Maryland Terrapins, in the 2018 ACC–Big Ten Challenge. The news was first reported by CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein, citing a source.

Perhaps UVA’s bitterest rival at one time, Maryland has a 107-75 advantage in a series that began in 1913 and ran on a near-annual basis from 1924–2014 until the Terrapins left for the Big Ten. The Hoos are 25-61 in the notoriously hostile confines of College Park and 6-7 in what is now known as the Xfinity Center.

Under head coach Tony Bennett, UVA is 8-5 against Maryland with a 4-3 road record.
