Through 3 Quarters

Down three at the end of last quarter, the Rutgers Scarlet Knights have now snagged the lead. After three quarters neither squad has the game in the bag, but the Scarlet Knights lead 14-10 over the Maryland Terrapins. RU has been riding high on the performance of WR Bo Melton, who has punched in one rushing touchdown.

RU has been a nightmare for Maryland's offensive line with three sacks already. We'll see how many sacks RU can scare up the rest of the game.

What to Know

Get ready for a Big Ten battle as the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and the Maryland Terrapins will face off at noon ET Saturday at Capital One Field at Maryland Stadium. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

Last week, RU lost to the Penn State Nittany Lions at home by a decisive 23-7 margin. No one had a standout game offensively for the Scarlet Knights, but they got one touchdown from WR Bo Melton.

Meanwhile, Maryland ended up a good deal behind the Indiana Hoosiers when they played two weeks ago, losing 27-11. A silver lining for Maryland was the play of WR Dontay Demus Jr., who caught six passes for one TD and 114 yards.

RU is expected to lose this next one by 6.5. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the team has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.

RU took a serious blow against the Terrapins when the two teams previously met in October of last year, falling 48-7. Can the Scarlet Knights avenge their loss, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll soon find out.
