The game against Indiana, scheduled for noon, will have various moments throughout the game that celebrate the team. It will be a 20th anniversary recognition of the championship team, along with the 20th anniversary of Friedgen winning the Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year award. The on-field recognition will take place between the first and second quarter of the game.
Friedgen coached Maryland from 2001-10 with a 75-50 record, seven bowl appearances and five bowl wins.
