2009 Football Schedule Announced

Here it is:

9/5       at California
9/12     James Madison
9/19     Middle Tennessee
9/26     Rutgers
10/3      Clemson
10/10    at Wake Forest
10/17     Virginia
10/24      at Duke
11/7        at NC State
11/14      Virginia Tech
11/21       at Florida State

The Baltimore Sun incorrectly reported that the Terps have no bye week, but they do have one on 10/31.

Some quick thoughts:

It's going to be tough to open the season at California. It would have been nice to get a game against James Madison under our belt first, but it will be a good, early test for this team.

The Terps then get a nice 4 game home stand from Sept. 12th-Oct 3rd ,  with possible tough games against Clemson and Rutgers.

The toughest part of the schedule appears to be the last 3 games, which come against Va. Tech at home, on the road for FSU and then back home against BC.

Maryland also plays Duke for the first time since the league expanded to 12 teams.

 

What are your thoughts? What do you think MD's record will be next year?
