Maryland is an average team coming from the Big 10, with that said I think we SHOULD handle them quite easily.

They are 7-5, 4-4 in Big 10 play, with a couple of blowout losses.

Wisconsin 52-7
Michigan State 37-15
Ohio State 52-24

We should be able to run the ball at will and control the line of scrimmage quite easily.

On defense we will need to cover WR Stefon Diggs who is a dynamic playmaker and should be one of the first WR's off the board in the 2015 NFL Draft. Other than Diggs the Terps don't really have any outstanding offensive weapons.

The QB play is pedestrian at best and really limits how much damage Diggs could potentially do to our secondary. The QB is Senior C.J. Brown who has 13 TD's and 9 Ints on the year, but he is a duel threat guy and also their leading rusher with 569 yards and 7 TD's.

We should be able to run away with this game and carry some momentum heading in to the 2015 season.

I don't trust Richt to motivate this team.

I'm taking the points as well.

Others are saying Maryland in the Music City Bowl...

Just me but I'll go to Nashville cause I like the city & it's only a 4 hr drive. It'll be an easy drive up Mon. morning, catch the game, book a room for Mon. & Tues. night(New Years Eve). Enjoy the New Years in Nashville, sleep in & be home by 4:00 Wed. afternoon...

Pretty economical trip compared to Tampa...

At this point I hope it is Nashville. A good friend of mine is a Sr. director at Doulouite Touche and has to work 2 weeks in their Nashville office every month. He bought a 2 BR condo downtown 6 months ago and let's me and my family stay there on any weekend or during the two weeks he is at home in Atlanta. I will definitely take advantage of the free place to stay if we play there.

Nashville is a pretty cool town BUT I'll be damned if I'm
EVER going to that bowl game again and freeze my arse
off.

If a bowl game is not in a dome or Florida I ain't going.
Granted,if we ever get invited to the Fiesta or Rose I'll
go.
