It’s starting to feel like 2016 all over again.
Maryland football may not have the likes of D.J. Moore, J.C. Jackson, Ty Johnson and other NFL players that were on the Terps’ roster five years ago, but there are some comparisons to be made when looking at the current condition of the program.
From 2016-20, Maryland’s best record came in 2016, when it went 6-7 overall under head coach D.J. Durkin. The Terps kicked off their campaign five years ago with three straight wins, all of the victories coming against Howard, FIU and UCF. Maryland swept its nonconference opponent slate that year going 3-0, something it accomplished in 2021 as well.
