Moving On...

With Maryland football and the Redskins fumbling and bumbling their ways to the finish line, it's probably a good time to turn my attention to college basketball.

Maryland fell apart late again over the weekend against Boston College. A beautiful fall day was ruining by a fourth quarter collapse. The Terps get one more shot at qualifying for a bowl at NC State this coming weekend. Even if the Terps hit the 6 win minimum for bowl eligibility, would it really be something to be excited about? Maryland could count wins against the following programs: Navy, Temple, Wake Forest, Virginia, North Carolina, and NC State...not exactly football's power programs. By contrast, Maryland lost to these teams: Clemson, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, Florida State, and Boston College. Terps beat the doormats, but could not upset their betters, even at home. (Incredibly, between basketball and football, Maryland went 0-3 against Clemson.)

Like I said, as far as I'm concerned, it's basketball season. Hopefully tonight's game wasn't an indication of the season ahead...
