Maryland football may find itself stuck in the middle of a battle for bragging rights this weekend. When No. 6 Ohio State visits College Park, Urban Meyer may take it upon himself to deliver an even wider margin of defeat than Jim Harbaugh and Michigan delivered to the Terps last week. It’s the last thing Maryland needs on national television.
DJ Durkin has worked under Meyer twice before, at Bowling Green and Florida. It’s unlikely to lessen the hurt the Buckeyes can deliver. The Terps are still sitting one win short of bowl eligibility, but Rutgers, Maryland’s last opponent of the season, will be the team’s best shot at getting that sixth victory.
