Not good enough at the defensive end (and too much fouling in the second half)…our strength had been our 2 point defense, but Maryland got too many good looks inside (and off of our live-ball turnovers).
Interesting seeing Keith Kimble do the game…he might be the best referee out there right now, and had the National Title game last year. This is the first time we’ve had him in a few years, but he’s doing some more Big Ten games this season.

Road defense reverted to the missing-in-action style shown at Minnesota. What happened to the swarming help D that stymied Minny at home last game? Hard to believe Shrewsberry was outcoached by Danny Manning.Three takeaways from Penn State basketball's loss to Maryland

The zone really did upset our offense in the second half. But Maryland has some talent, and it’s surprising they’ve been as bad as they have this season. Still hurts that we didn’t get Donta Scott coming out of Imhotep.
Are you paying attention to society? Class and dignity is so 2015.
We got Justin McKoy instead. A lot of good that did us.

That group of unsportsmanlike bums is just another stain on the already stained reputation of this league.
I’m shocked at how little of an impact he’s made at Virginia and UNC…averaging under 2 points/game in his career as his junior season winds down. I thought he’d make an early impact for us.
It’s just Twitter, so it could be that some student intern posted it. It would be really sad if a salaried communications “professional” tweeted that. Regardless, it shows that maryland is small and that Penn State is still in their heads.
Those Terrelle Cryer shirts won't be popping up at Saturday's Ohio State-Penn State game after all.
The Penn State Marketing Association made 200 of the shirts, which featured a drawing of Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor and a box of tissues, and was planning to pass them out to members of the group and then sell any left over to the public on Friday. Dan Sturman, a Penn State senior and the president of the student group, said today that is commonly done at Penn State, various student organizations designing their own T-shirts for big games.
But the decision was made last night to recall all of the shirts after the Marketing Association received input from members of the club that the shirt wasn't sending the right message. Penn State's Daily Collegian wrote a story about the shirts this week that was picked up by several other sources, including www.cleveland.com
"The feedback we received thought it was too over-the-top," Sturman said. "It conveyed our message incorrectly. We wanted to stir up excitement about the Ohio State-Penn State rivalry. It was not meant to be an attack on Pryor. He's an amazing athlete. It's not an attack on him, and that's not what Penn State is about."
Sturman said the group had passed out about 20 T-shirts to members, but the group knows who has them and everyone has been asked to turn them in.
