Let’s take a look at the Terps remaining 9 games.
Home—Penn State, Nebraska, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin
Away– Penn State, Nebraska, Iowa, Rutgers
I believe it will take an 11-7 Conference record for the Terps to be assured of an invite to the dance. Currently at 6-3 that means they have to find 5 wins.
We know Wisconsin will be a brutal matchup. Therefore—the other 4 home game and 1 more road win will do the deed.
A Quick Look at Penn State
Penn State fell to 14-8 overall with a 60-58 loss at Illinois its last time out on Saturday.
Senior guard D.J. Newbill leads the Big Ten in scoring, averaging 21.5 points per game. He posted 20 points on a team-high 14 attempts against Illini. The Nittany Lions boast wins against Rutgers and Minnesota in conference play this season. Penn State started the year 12-1 before embarking on its Big Ten slate. The Nittany Lions are 2-5 on the road.
Maryland leads the all-time series, 9-7, including a 62-39 road victory on Dec. 1, 2010 in the last outing between the two programs.
