The Terps defense started strong, and finished strong, holding the Buckeyes to a scoreless tie after 1, and prevented Ohio State's backups from scoring in the 4th. Problem was they lost the 2nd and 3rd quarters 48-3.
How bad does Florida want that Georgia game back? Nobody is playing better right now. Both teams advanced inside their opponents' 30 on each of their first 3 drives of the game. Problem was the Gators scored 3 touchdowns, while the Tigers had a field goal, a failed 4th down conversion, and a punt on 4th and 26 following a penalty and a sack, so Mizzou had a 21-3 deficit to show for it. Florida didn't stop scoring, scoring touchdowns on their first 5 possessions, and 6 of their first 8, with a pair of field goals in between, for a 48-3 lead, and still led 48-10 when they punted for the first time.
Speaking of getting starts back, Bucky could use one, since winning 8 in a row after an 0-2 start knocked them out of the polls. The defense picked Jack Plummer off 3 times, and held the potent Purdue receiving duo of Bell and Moore to just 72 combined yards. The Wisconsin offense did not have their best day, but Jack Coan did have a pair of long touchdown passes.
Granted it's just Vanderbilt, but Jimbo got a bounceback effort after doing nothing for three quarters against Ole Miss last week, putting the Aggies in a 22 point hole going into the 4th.
