Penn State Football: Game-by-game predictions for 2018
12. Maryland, November 24, University Park, PA
Penn State should only have to win this game to make it to the Big 10 Championship game, and Maryland will probably have the worst record in the Big 10 next season. Their head coach D.J. Durkin will likely be fired, and other than D.J. Moore being selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, not much good has come out of this program the last few seasons.
The Terrapins finished 4-8 last season with a 2-7 conference record. Their only conference wins last season came against Minnesota and Indiana.
Penn State went down to College Park last season and won 66-3. It may not be that much of a blowout this season, but it still should be a good win on an emotional Senior Day where Trace McSorley will play his last game in Beaver Stadium.

The Nittany Lions may not jump out to an early lead, but they will grind it out and try to gain some momentum heading into the Big 10 Championship Game in Indianapolis, where Wisconsin will likely be waiting for a rematch to decide who makes the College Football Playoff.
