Diggy Coit’s 41-performance last Wednesday vs. Mount St. Mary’s has earned him Big Ten Player of the Week honors. Coit’s career best day was also the most points ever scored in a game at Xfinity Center.

Terps play UNLV late tonight as part of Players Era in Las Vegas.

In a battle between two future star QBs in the making in Maryland’s Malik Washington and Michigan’s Bryce Underwood, it was RB Bryson Kuzdzal who shone brightest, scoring three rushing touchdowns as the No. 18 Wolverines routed the Terrapins, 45-20.

Maryland QB Malik Washington shouts out Terps' seniors to close his presser, specifically WR Octavian Smith Jr.

"He took me under his wing ... I appreciate him so much."
November 23, 2025 at 12:49 AM
Maryland coach Mike Locksley: "We have some talented, inexperienced players that have to learn how to get back on the horse and win."
November 23, 2025 at 12:41 AM
Maryland coach Mike Locksley: "We just weren't good enough today. It starts with me as the leader."
November 23, 2025 at 12:34 AM
Maryland football is 61-80 overall since joining the Big Ten in 2014, 29-72 in conference games.

Under Mike Locksley (since 2019), Terps are 36-43 overall, 16-42 in conference games, and 2-15 in conference games in the last two seasons.
November 23, 2025 at 12:28 AM
FINAL:
No. 18 Michigan 45
Maryland 20

Kuzdzal 100 yards, 3TD

Underwood 16-23, 215, 2TD
Washington 19-39, 210, TD/INT

Terps allow 228 rushing yards. Maryland's losing streak reaches seven. They'll close the season in Detroit against Michigan State next week.
November 23, 2025 at 12:17 AM
Jasper Parker scored from 6 yards out on the ground. 42-13 Wolverines.
November 22, 2025 at 11:41 PM
End Q3: Michigan 35, Maryland 13
November 22, 2025 at 11:36 PM
Terps choose to go on fourth and 9 at midfield, and Malik Washington is sacked for the third time today. He'd been sacked three times all season entering the game.
November 22, 2025 at 11:31 PM
After review, Bryson Kuzdzal is in for this third TD of the day, 2 yards. 35-13 Wolverines.
November 22, 2025 at 11:23 PM
You're Maryland, you're 4-6, haven't won a game since September, you're down 18 in the second half to the No. 18 team in the country, and you're 10 yards away from the end zone ... and you kick a field goal.
November 22, 2025 at 11:16 PM
320lb Michigan defensive lineman Tre Williams entered on that third and goal, and he's the one that gets home to sack Washington, second time he's sacked today. Terps FG makes it 28-13 Michigan, 7:34 in the third.
November 22, 2025 at 11:11 PM
Wolverines score on the opening drive of the second half, Bryson Kuzdzal's second of the day. 28-10 Michigan.
November 22, 2025 at 10:58 PM
Halftime: Michigan 21, Maryland 10

Washington 13-24, 153, TD/INT
Underwood 14-19, 183 2TD

As expected the true freshmen have put on a show. Maryland still in it, but a couple of drops (Scruggs INT, Farooq TD) could have changed the game.
November 22, 2025 at 10:31 PM
It's Week 13, and Terps still have defenders just trying to collide with guys instead of actually tackling them. And one of them, Jamare Glasker, just injured himself doing so.
November 22, 2025 at 10:18 PM
Sean O'Haire 34yd FG is good. Michigan 21, Maryland 10 halfway through the second.
November 22, 2025 at 10:04 PM
Jaishawn's Revenge. Gets home to sack Malik Washington on third down in the red zone, only the fourth time Malik's been sacked all season.
November 22, 2025 at 10:03 PM
Wolverines cap off an 83 yard drive with a 2yd rushing TD by Bryson Kuzdal. Pretty darts from Bryce Underwood to Marsh and Marshall to help move Michigan down the fireld. They lead 14-7

Today’s SECU Stadium crowd for Maryland vs Michigan at the end of the first quarter. Third ‘sellout’ of the season (capacity 46,185), but to my untrained eye, the most people that have been here so far this season.
