My Virginia at Maryland take
All I have to say is REVENGE!
Maryland got slaughtered 48-13 in this matchup. Now they catch the Cavaliers at home where they're 14-3 against the spread under coach Freidgen. Virginia's a dismal 0-11 against the spread in their final ACC road game of the year the last 11 years.
Those recent stats are backed up by some numbers from the current season. When they run, as opposed to when their opponent runs, Maryland boasts a solid 1 yard advantage. Virginia's figure is -0.2. Maryland also enjoys a +1 yard advatage over Virginia there. So, history and current form both point to the Terps.
The Cavaliers only win in their last 4 games was a beating of pathetic Troy State at home. This Cavs team, a sleeper to win this conference at year's start with their QB Schaub a Hiesman candidate, now staggers to the finish line still needing a win to be bowl eligible. With Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech left on their schedule, that sixth win may never come.
I'm taking Maryland minus the points!
