Maryland football vs. Penn State: Game time, TV schedule, live radio streaming, odds and more

It’s just about time for the Maryland-Penn State matchup we’ve had circled on our calendars for months. It’s a game that means many things to many people. Some think it’s a rivalry game; others are more dismissive in that regard, but the consensus is that there’s an extra something to it.
