"They got a puncher's chance," former Michigan wide receiver Desmond Howard said, crediting Maryland's "explosive" offense. "But they won't win this game. Ohio State will win this game, but they won't cover."
Pat McAfee called Saturday's game a "big test" for Maryland to see who it is.
"I think they struggle a little bit early again," McAfee said. "But I think they find it. Ohio State late.
