Victory! Pt. II

If you can believe it, it happened again! Twice in one season, we beat a storied program, giving the fans a reason to rush the field. Last weekend's victim: the Miami Hurricanes, national champs four years ago, perennial contenders. A 14-13 nail-biter on national television.

Some context: according to the ESPN sports ticker, Maryland is the first team to beat both Florida State and Miami in the same season since 1985...and we did it in a matter of three weekends. Our next opponent is Boston College. We lead Boston College in the ACC standings, but must beat Boston College, and likely the surprise division leader Wake Forest in the season finale for a berth in the ACC Championship game versus Georgia Tech. Dare we believe it's possible after cardiac wins in each of the last five weekends?

The photo on the left isn't a duplicate from my earlier post. It's another spontaneous outbreak of Terrapin fever! Catch it before you miss it! See you in College Park in a couple of weeks...

Maryland Beats Miami. College Park, MD. November 11, 2006.
