Maryland football clobbered by Penn State, 66-3, in season finale

Maryland football’s offseason couldn’t come soon enough.

The Terps dropped their final game of 2017 on Saturday, falling 66-3 at home to Penn State. It’s Maryland’s fourth straight loss to close the year, and the team finishes with a 4-8 record.

This game was never in doubt, as Penn State was up 28 points by the early second quarter. The shutout reached 52-0 before Maryland recorded a third-quarter field goal, but the clobbering resumed shortly after that.

Max Bortenschlager’s eighth start at quarterback was largely unspectacular, as the sophomore completed 20 of 36 passes for 185 yards.
