What to Know
The Howard Bison are staying on the road on Saturday to face off against the Maryland Terrapins at 7:30 p.m. ET Sept. 11 at Capital One Field at Maryland Stadium. Maryland should still be riding high after a victory, while the Bison will be looking to get back in the win column.
Howard was expected to have a tough go of it last week, and, well, they did. Things couldn’t have gone much worse for them as they lost 38-14 to the Richmond Spiders. The last quarter was a mere formality since it was already 38-14 by the third quarter.
Meanwhile, Maryland didn’t have too much breathing room in their game with the West Virginia Mountaineers last week, but they still walked away with a 30-24 win. Maryland QB Taulia Tagovailoa was slinging it as he passed for three TDs and 319 yards on 36 attempts. Near the top of the highlight reel was Tagovailoa’s 66-yard TD bomb to WR Dontay Demus Jr. in the first quarter.
Maryland’s defense was a presence as well, as it collected two interceptions and two fumbles. The picks came courtesy of DB Nick Cross and DB Jakorian Bennett.
Howard was pulverized by the Terrapins 79 to nothing when the teams previously met two seasons ago. Can the Bison avenge their loss, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll soon find out.
