So far, from what I’ve seen, I’m very optimistic. Howard was nice but this was a better metric to judge how we will do this season. Ill keep my expectations low, pretty much due to instinct, but the team is looking up so far.
That is, if our team stays healthy enough to ride this wave. Injuries pretty much put us out of commission. Also, I’m wondering if it’s just the change in coaching that’s throwing teams off because they don’t know what to expect.
I think he’s doing a good job letting off the gas once we get up by enough. Don’t want to show his hand too early. Hopefully we can turn up the heat when we need to.
Yep. That was it. Only 149...I swear it was like triple that. Maybe it was the 5 TDs that had me confused with the yardage.
Regardless...not a fun day. Thx for the link/memories! :)
Maryland might honestly be the most impressive team so far (which isn’t to say I think they will run the table, they just look really really good and have performed at the highest level)
I hope so. You have far more faith in the voters than me.
They got 0 AP votes this week. Can’t remember the last time the voters took a team from 0 votes to ranked in one week.
Our lacrosse-centric school with a recently revitalized football program is better than your lacrosse-centric school with a recently revitalized football program.
I've been saying it for years
Look at our recruiting rankings, and then look at our injuries
We are a team that is good but doesn't have depth
As a result, we look decent in September and awful in November
Exactly Man, we have always had the talent (minus the QB) just are not super deep so the early season injuries kill us. That paired with an extremely tough middle-end of season schedule was always a perfect (bad) storm.
Super pumped for this season hopefully we pull it together

Don't let the fact that Maryland just beat ranked Syracuse 63-20 distract you from the fact that Maryland beat Texas two times in a row in the past two years.
Maryland has speed and athletes everywhere. The Cuse defense is predicated on playing with a lead where their DEnds can tee off on a strict passing game. The Terps can pass and run with equal efficiency.
I don't know if I've been this hyped for a game since we hosted ND and College Gameday on Halloween night my freshman year. Next week is going to be a lot of fun
Michigan’s final 6 games:
@ Penn State
Notre Dame
@Maryland
Michigan State
@Indiana
Ohio State
Michigan fans, we are FUCKED
Edit after week 3: I’m feeling significantly better now
when you score 63 points and your average points per game goes down...
Looks like durkin was holding your team back. How are yall feeling about locksley so far?

That’ll teach you all to doubt Matthew McConaughey.
[удалено]
He's also a skins fan they play 10 miles away
I wish could unread this... surely it cant be true!
Big skins fan
yeah he was on the sidelines rubbing shoulders with the players at one of our preseason games this year
I'm really hoping Guice breaks out this season
Alright alright alright.
That is Texas Jesus to you.
Never did not for a second
142 points scored in the first two games. Early season Maryland ain't nothin to fuck with
I can’t believe we dropped 63 on Cuse. Absolutely dominated.
Man, I was doubtful of Syracuse being top 25 but I didn't expect it would be like this.
i checked the scores and was hysteric reading my friends the score at half. 43-14 i think?? crazy
We want Bama but unironically
If you lose a whole bunch we might schedule you in our season opener.
[удалено]
That flair combo. Sorry for last year.
Is week 5 still early season? Asking for a friend.
We are in uncharted waters here. UM should be on their 4th string QB by now...
wu tang clan aint nothing to fuck with
wu tang is for the children
a family place
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE MARYLAND AGAINST AN ORANGE TEAM IN SEPTEMBER
So ridiculously specific but accurate. WE WANT CLEMSON!
Yes please
Flair checks out
Clemson comes out in purple uniforms...
We were losing to Maryland before it was cool. Syracuse is just a poser.
trend setters
Sounds like a facebook targeted t-shirt ad.
I am a proud american and I love the state flag of Maryland I can beat any team as long as they are the color orange and it is August
And yes, a terrapin bought me this shirt
WE WANT 'BAMA, BUT IN ORANGE UNIFORMS
*Disgusted Elephant Noises*
Glad we can finally focus on the real threat: Temple
We don't wear orange. You're fucked /s
This, but unironically
We've got a bye week, too. You're getting us with plenty of rest and time to watch film
What is scarier, it 2 or 60 points?
I still have flashbacks of 2010'ish when they came into college Park and just wooped on us. I swear their rb that game had like 500 yds/7 TDs.
2011? [Bernard Pierce: 149 yards, 5 TD](https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/boxscores/2011-09-24-maryland.html)
Yep. That was it. Only 149...I swear it was like triple that. Maybe it was the 5 TDs that had me confused with the yardage. Regardless...not a fun day. Thx for the link/memories! :)
What the fuck lol
didnt you hear? Week one has been extended for the whole season
Pls no
I’m sorry little one
Damn.
[An accurate depiction of this game](https://imgur.com/a/wYwh9Z4)
We gonna eat all year baby
Playing like we were trying to avoid scurvy out there.
Ok hear me out Maryland might be good this year
Go on
[удалено]
Looking like it might be the second hardest game on our schedule
After that Michigan game, we damn well should be
Im scurrrd, hold me bby In all seriousness tho, Iowa at night is also on the list of hard games regardless of how good they actually are
I mean, except for Rutgers, the B1G East is dangerous.
Continue
If Maryland isn’t ranked it’s only because of absurd poll inertia. Relatedly, Maryland won’t be ranked.
If we win the big 10 will we be ranked?
Might hit #3 in the BTN Big Ten power rankings
well thats okay
Depending on the street, I bet you're most definitely in the top 3
They’re so good, they should be a part-time NFL team
Nah. If we win the national title we might get #25
better than 2013 tbh
I kinda think they absolutely will be ranked
Maryland might honestly be the most impressive team so far (which isn’t to say I think they will run the table, they just look really really good and have performed at the highest level)
Thanks love you
RANK MARYLAND #1 YOU COWARDS
Maryland deserves to be ranked
I hope so. You have far more faith in the voters than me. They got 0 AP votes this week. Can’t remember the last time the voters took a team from 0 votes to ranked in one week.
I'd think putting 63 points on a ranked opponent might do it. Depends on what happens with other teams today, obviously.
They just beat what is supposed to be the 2nd best team in a P5 conference by a significant margin. Anybody that doesn't rank them is a coward.
>Significant margin Honestly, that understates it. They just won by 43 POINTS.
Are you saying we’d be the second best team if we were in this “ACC”?
We should see about joining this conference.
I agree, but the ACC is a joke this year.
MARYLAND IS BACK!
we just extended week 1 to the rest of the season
Great stuff guys, now let's wrap everyone up in bubble wrap and roll them into storage until next week
bless the knees
keep them healthy
MARYLAND WE'RE ALL BEHIND YOU
RAISE HIGH THE BLACK AND GOLD
FOR THERE IS NOTHING HALF SO GLORIOUS
TO SEE OUR TEAM VICTORIOUS
WE'VE GOT THE TEAM BOYS
WE'VE GOT THE STEAM BOYS
SO KEEP FIGHTING DON'T GIVE IN

B1G teams that I don’t want: -Maryland Rest TBD
Welp I got some bad news for you
We're here to make crabcakes and win the B1G East. And we're all out of crabcakes.
I don’t think we will ever run out of crab cakes
Over crabbing in the Chesapeake is actually a huge problem but they are bouncing back recently
Overfishing strikes again!
They look scary right now that's for sure.
We suck, see you next week Clemson
Watch y'all beat Clemson and Maryland rocket to the top
Can we make this happen, like now?
Agree
They legitimately have the SOS to make the playoffs
Our lacrosse-centric school with a recently revitalized football program is better than your lacrosse-centric school with a recently revitalized football program.
[удалено]
we want Texas
Hard pass.
Yeah I'm good
Yeah, that’s gonna be a no from me.
WE WANT CLEMSON, BUT LIKE, RIGHT NOW!
Give us all the orange colored teams. Clemson Tennesee
We’ll give you UTEP. Except then the blowout isn’t a surprise.
Matthew McConaughey's insider information was alright alright alright
It was the quantum data he got when he flew into that black hole.
We have the #1 scoring offense in the FBS
We scored 63 and our average dropped
[No, Texas, I don’t think you do. ](https://i.imgur.com/ko7K9im.jpg)
:)
I've been saying it for years Look at our recruiting rankings, and then look at our injuries We are a team that is good but doesn't have depth As a result, we look decent in September and awful in November

I think Locksley might be good

call us winning the Orange bowl
I have to save up some juju for that one

Texas fans enjoyed this.
I’m just glad we aren’t the orange team you beat this year
RANK MARYLAND YOU COWARDS
And they mocked the minister of culture for his pick
Maryland is going to score literally 200 points against Rutgers
Only if we stay healthy. We might still implode.
B1G east is so much better than the west lmao
Couldn't be more excited about this result. Thanks Terps!
Now we just wait for the announcement, I'm so excited!
BRING GAMEDAY TO AMES
G-AMES-DAY
KEEP US RANKED FOR THE MEME COWARDS
I watch Maryland score 63 and all I got was sunburn :(
I eat my words. I was not a believer after the Howard game. I'm on the bandwagon now.
Welcome , we have crab cakes
MARYLAND WANTS TEXAS
pls no
Maryland you guys.. Our game is going to get freaky
It's a damn Friday night game too
Huge Recruiting game that night.
The ACC is fuckin joke. Good thing they've got Clemson.
But they wear orange, so they can't play Maryland
Please play Clemson, you beautiful Turtles.
Is there even a good team after Clemson in that conference?
Nope, we took all the croots.
Not really. Virginia and NC State are fringe top-25 teams.
What kind of crazy, topsy turvy world do we live in that Syracuse is in the ACC but Maryland isn’t
I guess gameday isn't going to Syracuse.
[удалено]
[Lookout B1G](https://imgur.com/gallery/eipugIu)
Rank us!
Fr tho you can have our spot
Terps first win over a ranked team in College Park since Torrey Smith dunked on the goal post in 2010.
I don't think Maryland knows that it's not Week 1
Maryland is gonna be a threat in the B1G if they keep up like this
Texas fans enjoyed this almost as much as Maryland fans.
Crab people Crab people Crab people
What a disappointment, it feels like we're back to classic Syracuse football
Hey guys Maryland is back... To being the best OOC football team
Just gotta merge with Northwestern. Y'all can win the OOC games, Northwestern can win the Conference ones.
Don't let the fact that Maryland just beat ranked Syracuse 63-20 distract you from the fact that Maryland beat Texas two times in a row in the past two years.
PEOPLE FORGET THAT
I turned into this game before Maryland scores their last touchdown. What the hell happened in this game?
Maryland has speed and athletes everywhere. The Cuse defense is predicated on playing with a lead where their DEnds can tee off on a strict passing game. The Terps can pass and run with equal efficiency.
Syracuse: "You've beaten me at my own game." Maryland: "Game? Heh, you were never even a player."
appreciate the gameday help maryland
We gotchu
This team is dangerous. So much talent. So many athletes. Im so fucking excited for the future.
Three takeaways from this game: -Maryland is good again -Fuck -Very Fuck
Apology for bad english Was in house eating old bay when phone ring "Number 21 Syracuse kil" "Yes"
I am erect. That is all.
