this is great but let's not make comments that would cause this to become 'bulletin board fodder' for the little froggies. I want us to beat them so bad that they will wish they had stayed on their little pond.

Happy to see Maryland behind us. Was hoping they aren’t a top 25 type team (which they might be, but going to assume this ranking is about correct for now)

Don't we want Maryland to be a top 25 team when we play them? (they won't because they play two chumps before us - which we should hope they handle easily)

I just want to beat them and go into the TcU game undefeated, and beat a big 10 team. If they are not great this year, better chance of beating them early with an away game, new staff, and a ton of new faces on the team. If they were top 15 I would have very little faith we are going to win that one on the road.

Maryland is a good team to schedule. They have been a mid to lower level Big 10 team and that's the level we need to be competing against...just like TCU. Any wins against P5 programs are a plus right now and road wins are especially hard to come by so this is a great opportunity, but our guys 1st need to take care of business against UNT who will already have one game under their belts when we play
