Maryland Football Overcomes Slow Start To Beat Indiana
Max Bortenschlager threw for two touchdowns and Jake Funk ran for two more as the Maryland Terrapins overcame an early 14-0 deficit to defeat Indiana 42-39 Saturday in College Park.
After the Hoosiers scored two touchdowns early, Maryland junior safety Darnell Savage intercepted a pass that led to a Lorenzo Harrison 14 yard touchdown run. Two drives later, Savage then blocked an Indiana punt, recovered it and ran 16 yards for a touchdown.
Harrison finished the game with 67 yards rushing on 11 carries. Ty Johnson led Maryland with 91 yards on the ground while Bortenschlager completed 10-16 passes for 171 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Maryland improves to 4-4 overall and 2-3 in the Big Ten. The Terrapins travel to Rutgers next week.
