How to watch Maryland football vs. Michigan State

Maryland carries emotional weight into Saturday’s game against Michigan State amidst the chaos and fallout this week from investigations into Jordan McNair’s death and the team’s culture.

The Terps, led by Javon Leake’s 274 all-purpose yards and four touchdowns, exploded for 63 points and 712 yards in last week’s victory against Illinois. However, things get significantly more difficult this week against the Spartans. Michigan State has the best rushing defense in the country, allowing just 77.4 rushing yards per game. The Terps will likely have to lean on their inconsistent passing attack against a middling Spartan pass defense in order to secure victory.
