The Terrapins are 8-2 in the Big Ten and one game out of first place following wins over No. 3 Iowa and Ohio State last week. Maryland returned three starters from a team that won 27 games and reached the third round of the 2015 NCAA Tournament. Maryland has three losses, coming at the hands of top-10 teams North Carolina and Michigan State as well as a 3-point loss at Michigan. Maryland Head Coach Mark Turgeon is a familiar face for long-time Husker fans, as he played at Kansas from 1984 to 1987 for Larry Brown and also served as an assistant at KU from 1987 to 1992. He served as a head coach at Jacksonville State, Wichita State and Texas A&M before taking the Maryland job prior to the 2011-12 season. Maryland is one of the most efficient teams in the country, averaging 76.8 points per game while shooting 50 percent from the field. All five starters average in double figures, including a team-high 14.5 ppg and 5.4 apg from Big Ten Preseason Player of the Year Melo Trimble. A pair of ACC transfers and one of the Big Ten’s top freshmen have given Maryland one of the top starting lineups in the country. Robert Carter (13.2 pgg, 6.9 rpg) and Rasheed Sulaimon (10.5 ppg on 47.7 percent shooting from 3-point range) have given the Terrapins a pair of veteran scorers, while freshman center Diamond Stone is averaging 12.8 ppg on 57 percent shooting from the field. 1 Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 No logical rational for this except Miles is good for at least one unexpected win a year. And Maryland has struggled a bit to put people away on the road and we played them tough last year with a lesser team than we now field. Predicting a Husker victory. Quote Link to comment

SouthLincoln Husker Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Just hope we play well! Quote Link to comment
HuskermanMike Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 This will be a tough one to pull off no doubt, we need to be consistent in winning games because after the wining streak, we have a losing streak...... Maryland will give us a tough fight, we give our best effort and play a low turnover game and we have a chance. We also need to shoot a solid percentage form 3 to have a shot because I have a feeling we will shoot tons of threes during this game. Quote Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 This will be Nebraska's biggest win in years. Or just a normal loss. Quote Link to comment
