vs.

#5 Maryland Terrapins (11-1) vs. #2 Rutgers Scarlet Knights (12-0)

Lee Picks: Rutgers
Kirk Picks: Maryland

Maryland: B OVR, B+ OFF, B DEF
Rutgers: B OVR, B OFF, B+ DEF

We had a 33-21 lead going into the 4th quarter. The Terps had the ball on our 17 when the final quarter opened, and on the first play they scored a TD on a pass.

We responded with a FG on the next drive, making it 36-28. Three minutes later with 7:26 left, they hit a 20-yard pass for a TD. They went for the 2pt conversion and missed it, making it 36-34.

We got the ball back, hoping to score a TD to get out of their reach. We couldn't, but Latimer hit a 44 yard FG to put us up by 5.

But with 40 seconds left and the Terps on the 4 yard line, their QB connected with a receiver in the end zone. They missed the 2pt conversion, but we couldn't get down the field in time.

Final Score: Maryland 40, Rutgers 39.

Heartbreaking.
