Maryland Terrapins at Penn State Nittany Lions Prediction
So far we have seen 76% of the consensus fancy the Terrapins. The Nittany Lions initially opened as a 2 point favorite and now have become a home pooch, signifying heavy action on the Terrapins. In Over/Under markets, the Total Line is currently at 58 despite its initial onset of 56 showcasing a heavy line on the Over by the general public. Likely what we are seeing here is an overreaction on Maryland after they smoked Purdue as an eleven-point favorite. However, the difference of quality in opposition season-to-date will be the difference maker for both teams in this contest. Maryland has beat up on chumps while Penn State has already ran a bit of a gauntlet. The Nittany Lions were also able to do this with one hand tied behind their back due to their injury situation. The difference between a battle-tested team and an outfit that creams creampuffs will be showcased Saturday. Maryland is simply not a team that should be giving away any points to Penn State in Happy Valley, regardless of wins and losses. Penn State will likely expose the Terps for their padded schedule so far.
