Look at it this way, at least now we probably won’t have to suffer through another embarrassing playoff performance. How could the Caps play so poorly at home in such a crucial game. Buffalo now has the advantage and will eliminate the Caps should they win out.

Here’s my problem with tonight’s 9PM game: The Irish are superb in putting pressure on their opponents. The Terps have trouble keeping their turnovers to a minimum. The Terps have a decided inside edge. I know I haven’y been overly positive about the Terps this year but that is only because that turnover problem disrupts my opinion. Yet 30-4 isn’t that bad of a record. I was at Comcast the night the Terps came back from 20 against Georgia Tech.
Why? At this point the 2 teams are in a virtual tie but the Caps own the tiebreaker. In essence a clear win tonight would put the Caps virtually 2 games up.
