Pennsylvania won the game, 28-7, to earn a third straight victory over Maryland in the series. Pennsylvania has now won seven of the last nine Big 33 games. Wylie was one of the defensive stars of the game, earning game MVP honors for his effort resulting in two tackles, one pass breakup, and a sack.
