Maryland vs. Ohio State Live Stream: Watch Online Buckeyes College Football

The Terps enter their bye week a disappointing 2-4, and now must wait and see what happens with their head coach.

“We just won, man”, Meyer said, offering a slight smile. “He just competed, took a few shots and kept going and he was the guy that made the big plays for us all day long”. It doesn’t matter if the team the Buckeyes are playing is good or bad. With the lack of results continuing this season, Maryland’s football supporters had become increasingly vocal about their displeasure with the direction of the program under Edsall.

Five years ago, Maryland opened its season by beating a short-handed Miami team in Randy Edsall’s Terrapins debut on the strength of 348 passing yards from quarterback Danny O’Brien. Or a product of Meyer’s genius?

For now, everything’s peachy. The converted quarterback has been mostly quiet since a dazzling debut against Virginia Tech, but he had five catches for 79 yards on Saturday. Cardale Jones completed 21 of 28 passes for 291 yards. They went on to lose their final six games. Saturday they batted a ideal 1.000.

Is the reporter to blame for asking a stupid question. If you would notice, I do that every single game.

With big boy football coming to town next Saturday, the team needs to work on finding a killer instinct to match its awesome resiliency. Cook passed for 139 yards and a touchdown while going over the 7,000-yard mark for his career but the Spartans nearly squandered a 21-point lead.

The Huskers, protecting a one-point lead, played it safe after Gaglianone hit the right upright with his field-goal try with 1:26 left. Maryland will have to up its ante to attract one of the latter personalities.

Everyone wants to compare it to what Meyer did in winning a national championship at Florida in 2006 with starting quarterback Chris Leak and red zone specialist Tim Tebow. And Leak was more of a game-manager who didn’t have an argument for having the job all to himself. It dominated except for those two plays. After falling behind, OSU reeled off 21 straight points.

Randy Edsall has been fired by the Maryland Terrapins after a 2-4 start. They nearly lost on the road against the Indiana Hoosiers and could have an issue with Maryland depending on which version of the Terrapins show up. By doing so, even he knows he’s keeping the pilot light burning under this simmering quarterback controversy.

“(Barrett) provided an obvious spark for us in there”, Meyer said after the game.

The Buckeyes went three-and-out on their first possession, but when they got the ball back, trailing Maryland 7-0, the offense started clicking.

For what it’s worth, Meyer didn’t come to this decision easily.

Bottom line: Another performance not worthy of the No. 1 team in the county, but on the flip side, which of the other top teams can convincingly say they deserve to be No. 1. Then he asked them to think about his plan for a couple of hours and report back to the facility with their opinions. He felt like J.T. brings an extra element to the game down in the red zone.

But I think he was serious.
