Penn State vs Maryland Preview: Grudge Match Edition

Both teams entered the seasons with high hopes in a down year for the Big Ten conference. Injuries to Justin Jackson and Ivan Bender in December put a damper on expectations for the Terrapins, who find themselves in a near “must-win” scenario with six games remaining on their schedule. Penn State has more opportunities for signature wins down the stretch, but a loss to Maryland significantly reduces the margin of error to remain on the NCAA tournament bubble.
