Maryland football gets its first road test of the season Saturday against the Michigan State Spartans.
The Terps are looking to improve to 4-0 after sweeping their nonconference slate. They have won only four conference games away from home over the past three seasons.
Michigan State is almost two weeks removed from head coach Mel Tucker’s dismissal and lost in a blowout to No. 8 Washington, 41-7, last Saturday.
Maryland has not won at Michigan State since 1950, but enters Saturday’s game as the favorite.
The numbers
Maryland’s record: 3-0, 0-0 Big Ten
Michigan State’s record: 2-1, 0-0 Big Ten
All-time series: Michigan State leads, 10-3
DraftKings Sportsbook line: Maryland -7.
