Maryland Info

Head Coach: Mark Turgeon
Location: College Park, MD
Conference: B1G 10
Nickname: Terrapins, Terps
Mascots:Testudo
Last time out: Beat Rutgers
Typical Rotation Depth: 8-9 deep
Line: Maryland by 3
Offense: "Maryland Motion", Love the 3, like the rim
Tempo: Medium Pace



Shirt Not to Wear: Maroon, Gold, Under Armor, Turtle.
Fun Fact: Mark Turgeon's dad lives in Lincoln.





Player to watch: Melo Trimble

The 6'3" freshman is probably the 2nd best rookie in the league and one of the best at getting to the line, shooting a ridiculous 179 FTs so far. Additionally he's a 39% 3pt shooter when he doesn't feel like driving or passing to teammates.

The Skinny



Look for the Huskers to put up a good fight on Senior Night in a game against a Top 10 opponent. Let's see what fight this team has left.




Prediction: Nebraska 65 Maryland 64 with a 45% Chance of Runza

It depends on a few things, a Husker win over Maryland combined with a Minnesota loss to PSU. Would put the Huskers in the 10 slot. And play @ 5:30 on Thursday. A loss to Maryland would put Nebraska 12th and create a Wednesday game against Penn State or Rutgers at 3:30 p.m.

Minny down 2 to Penn St with 3 1/2 minutes to play

 

Any word on PItchford's injury for tonight?

Newbill splashes a 3 at the buzzer, PSU 79, Minny 76 - final

 

#10 seed is up for grabs! 

 

So we're the #10 with a win tonight, would play Indiana at 5:30 Thurs

 

#12 with a loss and would play PSU at 3:30 Wed

 

That was one helluva 3 by Newbill.  Props to the young man.
