Found September 26, 2009 on Ravens Insider:
Welcome to your full-service game experience. Safety Jamari McCollough and left tackle Bruce Campbell, both listed as "probable" on the injury report, are on the field warminig up. Rutgers quarterback Tom Savage is warming up as well. Savage was knocked out of last week's game against Florida International. He told the media a day or two later that he was fine, but Rutgers wouldn't confirm he would be ready to play. Fridge seemed to believe all along that Savage would start and that Rutgers was being coy. Savage is a big quarterback -- about 6-5 and 230 -- but is a dropback passer and not a dual-purpose guy. I can't emphasize enough how badly Fridge wants to win this one. He believe Maryland needs to establish a foothold on the season before ACC play begins. A rainy day at Byrd Stadium, by the way, which will likely keep some fans away.

Postgame Report Card: Rutgers 34, Maryland 13

No one word of the game can describe what happened in this game. Maryland went up against a team that is about there equal, perhaps a bit better or worse, in a rainstorm in College Park. Instead of having a competitive game, Maryland turned the ball over constantly, could not move the ball, and looked like they completely gave up during the middle of the fourth quarter. Say what...

Welcome news for Terps on injury front

Offensive lineman Bruce Campbell and safety Jamari McCollough are listed as "probable" on tonight's injury report for the Rutgers game on Saturday. That's welcome news for Maryland since both were formidable starters. Fridge said earlier today that Campbell would be expected to slide back in at left tackle and that Paul Pinegar would move back to the other side...

Maryland Vs Rutgers: Least from the East

While most fans in the area, if not the country, will be watching a marquee ACC matchup in Virginia Tech vs. Miami, two struggling programs will take the field in College Park when Maryland (1-2, 0-0 ACC) faces Rutgers (2-1, 0-1 Big East) in the Terps' final non-conference game of the season. The Terrapins are reeling from a stunning home loss from none other than Middle Tennessee...

A game Maryland should win

Terps are up 13-10 at the half. Maryland has 200 yards total offense compared to Rutgers' 95. The Terps can move the ball today. Best evidence: Maryland's last series of the half went 58 yards in 13 plays -- a long, confidence-building drive. It ended with the Terps taking the lead on a 34-yard field goal by Nick Ferrara with 11 seconds left in he half. ...

Bad signs for Terps in 34-13 loss

Some bad signs: --Maryland seemed to sag in the fourth quarter -- not a good sign. In a span of less than a minute-and-a-half, Rutgers running back Joe Martinek ran for touchdowns of 29 and 61 yards to push the margin to 34-13. “We were down seven and we give up a long run. We were down 14 and we give up another long run,” said linebacker Alex Wujciak, who led the Terps...

How Bad Does it Have to Get For Maryland Terrapins Football?

Seems like we wind up asking ourselves this same question every year for football and basketball. In the early parts of the season, Maryland has so much trouble putting talent and instruction together. And by the time they are able to realize their potential, by the time the last gasp of hope has been choked out of the Terrapin faithful, the usually improved Terps are unable to salvage...

Big defensive stand

After a Chris Turner interception, Rutgers moved to a fourth and goal from the 1. But Rutgers running back Jourdan Brooks was stood up by Alex Wujciak and Adrian Moten and lost a yard. Wujciak sprinted 30 yards downfield to celebrate. Maryland 13, Rutgers 10, third quarter.
