Maryland at Indiana Game Preview
Why Maryland Will Win
The passing game is rolling.
The offense played well in the win over Michigan State, Taulia Tagovailoa is hitting over 70% of his passes, and it should all work against an Indiana defense that’s struggling way too much in the secondary.

What’s Going To Happen
There’s not enough of a Hoosier running game to help the cause, and Bazelak isn’t accurate enough.
The Maryland secondary will give up plenty of yards, but Bazelak doesn’t take a ton of deep shots and he’s having a hard time simply hitting half of his throws.
