The Maryland Terrapins (4-5, 1-4 ACC) enter Byrd Stadium for their home finale tonight when they take on #8 Boston College (4-1, 4-1 ACC) in an Atlantic Division showdown. The Terps are reeling from a three game losing streak after falling to UNC 16-13 last Saturday while the Eagles national title hopes fizzled after Florida State stunned BC 27-17. Both teams look to rebound after the disappointing losses. While Boston College looks like an easy pick come tonight, Vegas has listed the Eagles as only a 6.5 point favorite. Maryland already knocked off one top-10 team earlier this season in previously ranked #10 Rutgers, but that was when the Terps were healthy.

Maryland still needs two more wins to become bowl eligible, but with a decimated offensive line and injuries across the board, can the Terps pull off another upset on Senior Night?

The Terps have been plagued by an absurd amount of injuries this season, more than any other year Ralph Friedgen has experienced during his coaching tenure. The offensive line has been the most severe casualty and will force the Fridge to start a freshman walk-on at guard. Losses to UVA and UNC have a direct correlation to the hobbled O-line since the running back tandem of Keon Lattimore and Lance Ball both failed to reach more than 100 yards in each of the last three games. Senior guard Andrew Crummey might return next Saturday against Florida State after suffering a broken fibula last month. Until then, the word depth doesn’t even exist for this unit.
