    Maryland has another one

    In yesterday's game, Maryland's quarterbacks showed some positives and some negatives. Pretty much as expected for backup quarterbacks who did not play much during the year. It will be interesting to see how much they develop before next year. Maryland also has a quarterback coming in from NC...

    OT: R.I.P. Frank Wycheck, former Oiler/ Titan TE

    I remember watching him play when he was at Maryland. He was one of those under-the-radar players who always seemed to be in the right place to make a big play.

    Rutgers Men's Soccer Begins Road Trip at Maryland Tuesday (live on the Big Ten Network)

    Maryland is definitely having an unusually off year for them. They lost a bunch of top players to graduation last year so they are now relying on many of their younger players. They do have a lot of individual talent but they seem to be having one of those years where the individual pieces are...

    BigTen Games Thread - Week Four

    There are so many targeting ejections that are extremely iffy yet they don't call a textbook targeting play on the MSU player. Wow.

    Count 'R' Blessings

    UConn's boneyard is in shock right now. They were so convinced that they were getting into the B12 that they were practically booking flights for upcoming seasons. At first they thought they would be added with SDSU. Then with Colorado. Then with Colorado, Arizona and Arizona State. They can't...

    Was this an all time snub?

    This is one of those times where the selection committee was actually somewhat consistent with previous years. For many years the committee has made it clear that if a team has an out of conference strength of schedule that is ranked in the 300's, then being on the bubble is a really risky...

    Expansion Rumors from FOX meetings

    Since then the ACC has added Louisville. That makes it a bit harder for the ACC to use the "WVU doesn't meet our academic standards" excuse against them.

    OT: Battle of Sharpsburg (Antietam) 158 years ago today

    I took a special guided tour of Antietam that walked through the fields following the path that the Irish Brigade took as it headed towards the Sunken Road. As we walked up the hill towards the Sunken Road, it was surprising how close we got before we could see what would have been the tops of...

    UConn recruiting news............

    I think everyone is wrong about the demise of UConn football. According to the conference realignment board on the Boneyard, it's just a matter of time before the Big Ten is on its knees begging them to join. Then UConn football will return to being one of the great teams.

    The ACC Sucks...Coach K “blames” NCAA for sports “rut?

    In the ACC (especially during basketball season) the pecking order goes: Teams that matter: North Carolina and Duke Teams that don't really matter but since they're located in North Carolina we'll pretend that they matter: NC State and Wake Forest Teams that don't matter: everyone else...

    OT: I ask for a meatball sub in CT

    You were luckier than I was the first time that I ordered a meatball parm in Maryland. I was a little surprised when the person taking the order asked me if I wanted everything on it. I said that I did, thinking that I would get everything that normally comes on a meatball parm. And I did get a...

    Auburn Gymnast Breaks Both Legs

    The Auburn gymnastics coach released a statement saying that she dislocated both of her knees and sustained multiple torn ligaments but did not break either leg. Still a really nasty injury though.

    Maryland new HC has been named

    It will be interesting to see what Maryland's recruiting class is like next year. He has always done very well at recruiting, especially in Maryland, and there is a very large number of highly rated recruits from Maryland, DC and Virginia in next year's class.

    Maryland

    I'm not sure what to make of the fight. At the moment the version of events seems to be a "he said" / "they said" where "he" is the player who got beat up and "they" is pretty much everyone else who was there, including some players who were anti-Durkin. Of course, that could change if other...
