In a game where Greivis Vasquez moved past one of the All-Time Terps on the career scoring list, the Terps were picked apart no matter what defense they threw against William and Mary.  Vasquez led the Terps with 26 points and moved past Walt “The Wizzard” Williams into 11th place on the career scoring list.  [...]

It’s about to get exciting.  Though this contest has been going on for over 10 days now, it is really just about to begin.  Starting tomorrow we have 15 games in the next 3 days.  A lot can and will happen, and it needs to because no one seems to want to stand up and [...]

Though there are two Bowl Games today, only counts since the Eagle Bank Bowl waited until the last possible minute to announce UCLA would be a participant, as they had an arrangement with Army, had they been bowl eligible.  I must say I have been impressed with Temple to this point in the Eagle Bank [...]

This couldn’t have come any sooner to make me happy!  Sure I love the Terps, and want Greivis to have a stellar season and get drafted in the first round, but I am also in a crazy fantasy college basketball league, and GV led my team to a 3-0 record this week!  Hooray Grievis!!! During [...]

If you are a glass half full type of guy, Maryland beat Florida Atlantic yesterday without much drama (72-59).  The Terps improved to 8-3 while Florida Atlantic fell to 5-7.  Landon Milbourne had 19 points, and Greivis continues to show signs of becoming himself again by putting in 26.  That is the good news. If [...]

First and foremost, since we are a Maryland site, don’t forget the Terps play the Mike Jarvis coached Florida Atlantic Owls today at 2:00 pm.  In my opinion that would be pretty poor scheduling by the NFL to have games with huge playoff ramifications to go up against Maryland-Florida Atlantic, but luckily for the NFL, this [...]

Hopefully everyone had a great Christmas, I know I did.  Just having a few days to lounge around was all the presents I needed, however if I wanted to be greedy, I’d ask for some College Football games to watch too, and what do you know, here they are! Today is shake down Saturday.  Instead [...]

Well it was nice to see a couple people get on the board with Utah’s win last night.  The good news, even for those with 1 or even 0 wins, is there is no one running away with this thing.  Not that we are picking against the spread, but I thought you would be interested [...]

The brutally long break in Maryland’s schedule for final exams, is over, and the Terps played a solid game against an inferior opponent.  Winston Salem St. wasn’t exactly the toughest opponent on the schedule this year, but coming out of finals, I was impressed with the performance of the Terps. First thing you had to [...]

Just wanted to do a quick update before we pack up the car and head out the door for Christmas.   Here is the latest, apparently Chris is going to have to show me how to do single spacing when I do the results, sorry about this: Name/Points RIW III   3 Rwimbrow 3 Lebron James 3 JD [...]
