UCF Races Past Maryland, 38-10

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Taj McGowan scored two touchdowns, quarterback McKenzie Milton ran for 94 yards and UCF capitalized on an early injury to Maryland quarterback Kasim Hill in a 38-10 win Saturday.

Coming off a three-week layoff because of Hurricane Irma, the Knights (2-0) used a 21-point run over the second and third quarters to take control against a team trying to adjust to its third different quarterback in three games.

Maryland (2-1) lost starter Tyrrell Pigrome in its season-opening win over Texas before turning to Hill, a true freshman with seemingly enough poise and talent to sufficiently fill the void.
