Week 2 Preview: The Maryland Terrapins

After a rough start to the season against Florida Atlantic, at least on the offensive side of the ball, the Spartans look for improvement as they begin Big Ten play at Maryland.

Despite a new coaching staff and huge roster turnover, it seemed like some of the same problems we’ve seen for the last two years kept rearing their head against FAU: receivers struggling to get open, not much push from the offensive line, poor quarterback play, and questionable decisions. Perhaps most frustrating for Spartan fans was the failed 4th and 1 call in the second half that saw a handoff to Kay’Ron Lynch-Adams get immediately stuffed well behind the line of scrimmage.
