Somebody needs to put some respect on Kentucky's name. Not the prettiest every week, but one of the grittiest teams in the country and continues to find ways to win. Should be top 10.
With today's loss to Rutgers, Maryland falls to 7-19 in the month of October under Mike Locksley.
All told, in October and November combined, Maryland is now 12-41 in the Locksley era (since 2019). Five of those wins are over Rutgers.
When the going gets tough, the Terps fold.

A-Rod said something dumb in the post game yesterday about the Dodgers like, "this is hard to watch." No, it ain't. Whip 'em like a rented mule. Brewers were - are - the best team in baseball this year.

People spent 16 years begging for the BCS to get bigger. They resisted.
People spent a decade begging for the CFP to expand beyond 4. They resisted.
For the first time ever, people are saying "We like it at the size it is, really."
They blew it up within 3 years.

Merrill College students know their rights as journalists.
"Cat Murphy is a master's student at the University of Maryland, credentialed as a reporter for our Capital News Service and doing the job we teach our students to do. Cat recorded openly in a public space alongside other news outlets, and that is her legal right," Dean Rafael Lorente (@DeanLorente) said. "I'm proud of how she handled herself in a difficult situation."
Maryland has reached the halfway point of its teetering 2026 season. The verdict so far? “Not good enough," as Rutgers comes to town for homecoming on Saturday.

"You try to not focus on the result, just the process and the work, and let the result be what it is," Terps QB Malik Washington says.
"It's nothing to do with our work. I think the team's working really hard. We have the process. We're trying to iron out the small details."
Locksley on Terps freshman edge Zion Elee:
"He has a gift to rush the quarterback ... he's continue to put on the size that he's going to need to play in the Big Ten."
"Really pleased with the production. Haven't been pleased with the post-snap things" re: penalties.
"I'm frustrated like our fans, but I have also been here to know what it's like when you get it up over the hump, and I think I've seen a shift in the last two weeks that we're on track," Locksley says.
"We've done some good things on the football side. We haven't done it consistently," Mike Locksley says about his career at Maryland. "Finding how to consistently win here is not just a Coach Locks problem. It's a problem that I think any coach that's worked here [has had]."
