11:07 left 4Q: Touchdown, Hoosiers

14:37 left 4Q: Hey, IU blocks a field goal attempt!

Still, Maryland 37, Indiana 3.

End 3Q: Maryland 37, Indiana 3

Only 15 minutes more.

A 46-yard completion on 3rd-and-19 sets up a 3-yard touchdown pass from Taulia Tagovailoa to Dylan Wade. Maryland 37, Indiana 3.

11:23 left 3Q: Terps tack on three

IU's defense holds, a nice play by Noah Pierre on third down is worthy of note. Maryland settles for 44-yard field goal. Maryland 30, Indiana 3.

13:37 left 3Q: IU fake punt comes up one yard short

After a three-and-out, IU lines up to punt, but goes for a fake punt. However, it comes up a yard short and Maryland has the ball on IU's 33-yard line. Maryland 27, Indiana 3.

HALFTIME: Maryland 27, Indiana 3

Tayven Jackson's pass bounces off the hands of Jaylin Lucas and into a Maryland defender's hands for an interception at midfield with 0:13 left in the half.

1:02 left 2Q: Maryland sack ends IU drive

On 4th-and-1, the Hoosiers manage to lose 11 yards. After what had been some better drives, both on offense and defense, IU has nothing to show for it and Maryland has the ball at midfield. Maryland 21, Indiana 3.

8:09 left 2Q: IU turns it over on downs deep in Terps territory

After converting one fourth down on a 15-play drive, the Hoosiers go for it again on 4th-and-6 at Maryland's 14-yard line rather than attempt a field goal. Tayven Jackson's pass is incomplete, Maryland ball. Maryland 21, Indiana 3.

End 1Q: Maryland 21, Indiana 3

Maryland 21 points.

Indiana 23 yards.

2:43 left 1Q: Another quick Terps score

This has been a disaster so far for IU's defense. The Hoosiers can't stop a nosebleed and look allergic to tackling as Taulia Tagovailoa runs 19 yards untouched (and unbothered) for another score. Maryland 21, Indiana 3.

5:34 left 1Q: Another busted coverage for IU

After the teams trade punts, Taulia Tagovailoa needs just one throw to extend Maryland's lead, hitting Tai Felton for a 29-yard score without a Hoosier defender in sight. Maryland 14, Indiana 3.

9:54 left 1Q: Jaylin Lucas return jumpstarts IU

The dynamic return man brings the kickoff to the Maryland 39-yard line, and a few Tayven Jackson-to-Trey Walker passes and some hard running from Christian Turner puts the Hoosiers all the way down inside Maryland's 6-yard line. But again, IU's offense can't gain a hard yard when it's needed and settles for a 25-yard field goal from Chris Freeman. Maryland 7, Indiana 3.

14:35 left 1Q: IU's defense lays down on first drive

It took Maryland all of three plays and less than 30 seconds to score a touchdown on IU's defense. Taulia Tagovailoa completed a 62-yard pass on a busted coverage on the first play and then hit Tai Felton for a 13-yard score two plays later. Maryland 7, Indiana 0.
