This is the typical meat grinder game with NU. Gard has yet to beat these guys in Madison. Yeesh.

How the hell does that happen in this day and age of airport security and scrutiny?

Huggins was probably out drinking with the pilots.

Seems like it was a fake news account that started the story.

I thought the issue was games against ranked teams outside College Park, and that the losing streak dates back to Gary Williams?

So, you're just being an ass, and you don't think that a young team playing back to back games with 2 days rest on the road and travel is an issue?
You've never advocated that a schedule has worked against your team? 
FTR, did I not mention that even at home, with a year under their belts, that Maryland would likely lose to this year's Michigan State team? 
I'm confused because I thought you were smart enough to know that this past weekend would be tough for any team, let alone one that is 5th youngest in division 1.
I guess it's your way of rubbing salt since Izzo was handed a easy win in a place that is ref friendly for the Spartans.

Miles is really trying to get things going, but he can't get the wins

might be time for him to go

too bad, because he's a great guy

Still love my Terps.  

Good job, Illinois.  That freshman (sorry, can't recall his name) is a player...

Ha ha, that reminds me of a bowl game for the Terrapins in the eighties where one player got on the wrong flight and barely made it in time to play.  He said he knew something was wrong when "Everybody on the plane was speaking Venezualen."

Big Ten a little drunk today?


UW defense seems good. Now three games with a chance to make some hay.

What the hell are you talking about?  Badge said he remembered Maryland beating a ranked Wisconsin team, and I was pointing out I believed the stat they kept bringing up was road losses to ranked teams, not to all ranked teams.  Take a deep breath there buddy

Penn States offense is the basketball equivalent of MSU football.  Just painful to watch them try an operate, and makes the whole vastly less than the sum of it's parts.

My apologies ELA.
Given your past snarkiness, I thought you were making it out to be excuses. 
MSG was supposed to be "home away from home", and even though we out represented Illinois, we still ended up losing.
Last time we met they were 13th and beat us, funny enough.
I guess we should just get prepared for the typical Maryland slide.

Could be that the young kids are just hitting a wall??


How many people showed up to MSG today?
