Gameday Coverage: No. 11 Penn State vs. Maryland

No. 11 Penn State football (8-1, 3-1 Big Ten) is rolling south for the first time this season to take on the Maryland Terrapins (5-3, 2-3 Big Ten) at SECU Stadium in College Park. The Terps are coming off a 33-27 loss at Northwestern while Penn State survived Indiana 33-24 at Beaver Stadium.

With both teams needing a win for different reasons, let’s look at how to follow the game.

Television

Penn State is on FOX for the third time this year. Jason Benetti will handle play-by-play duties, Brock Huard will be on color commentary, and Allison Williams will have updates from the sideline.

Local: 99.5 & 103.7 FM/1450 AM, Sirius/XM/Internet: 83/83/978

Weather

According to AccuWeather, it should be a decent day in College Park. It’ll be a high of 66º and a low of 34º, along with five mph wins and a 10% chance of rain with sunny conditions.

Last Meeting

Penn State won 30-0 in a downpour at Beaver Stadium. The Nittany Lions own a 42-3-1 all-time record against the Terps.

Injuries
