OPENING DRIVE

DJ Durkin is set to begin his first season as head coach of the Maryland football program in 2016. Heralded for his tenacity and work ethic, Durkin pieced together a coaching staff that includes two former FBS head coaches (Mike London, Pete Lembo) and one of this brighest young offensive minds in offensive coordinator, Walt Bell.

Rising senior utility man William Likely is set to return for his senior season after an illustrious three-year career thus far. Despite playing in just 11 games in 2015, Likely ranked third nationally with 1,197 combined return yards. The current owner of six Maryland records, he has 35 career starts at cornerback, in addition to serving as primary return specialist and even making a start on offense.

Rising junior middle linebacker Jermaine Carter, Jr. was spectacular in his first season as a starter for the Terps, leading the team with 103 tackles. He totaled 14.0 tackles for loss - the most for a Maryland middle linebacker since two-time all-american EJ Henderson in 2002.

Maryland will have a number of options at quarterback in 2016 as rising seniors Perry Hills (8 starts in 2015) and Caleb Rowe (4 starts in 2015) return, in addition to Gage Shaffer. The Terps also added a pair of freshmen QBs, including 2015 Gatorade Alabama Player of the Year Tyrrell Pigrome.

The Terps return nearly their entire receiving corps in 2016, including 88 percent of their total receiving yards. Leading the way are rising senior Levern Jacobs (425 yds, 3 TDs) and sophomore D.J. Moore (357 yds, 3 TDs), in addition to the increased impact of tight end Avery Edwards

Maryland’s rushing attack averaged more than 200 yards/g in 2015 for the first time since the 2001 season. The Terps will have to replace the workload of the graduated Brandon Ross (958 yards), and will look to Wes Brown, Ty Johnson and incoming freshman Jake Funk to step up in the backfield.

DJ DURKINHead CoachBowling Green ‘01 • First Year at Maryland

From 2010-2012, Durkin served as special team coordinator and linebackers coach at Florida and coached under current Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn. Once again, Durkin was a key contributor of a staff that helped produce an NFL first round pick when defensive tackle Shariff Floyd was taken in the first round of the 2012 NFL Draft.

As linebackers coach, Durkin tutored Jon Bostic, who finished his career as a second-team All-SEC selection and was drafted in the second round of the NFL Draft by the Chicago Bears in 2013.

Durkin’s coaching on special teams helped produce punter Chas Henry, the winner of the Ray Guy Award in 2011, and kicker Caleb Sturgis, a two-time finalist for the Lou Groza Award who now plays for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Under Durkin’s tutelage, Stanford’s defensive ends helped the Cardinal rank 11th nationally in sacks per game in 2007 and 2009.

At Stanford, Durkin helped the Cardinal bring in their highest ranked recruiting class in eight years in 2009.

As a graduate assistant at Notre Dame from 2003-04, Durkin worked primarily with defensive ends and helped develop Notre Dame all-time sack leader, All-Pro NFL defensive end and two-time Super Bowl champion Justin Tuck.

As a player, Durkin starred at Bowling Green as a starter at defensive end and outside linebacker from 1997-2000. He led the team in sacks in 1998 and served as a team captain for two seasons. Durkin was honored with numerous team awards including the Ken Schoeni Award for character and toughness, the Carlos Jackson Award personifying the values of a student-athlete and the Leadership Award.

Durkin played under Gary Blackney at Bowling Green. Blackney was Maryland’s defensive coordinator from 2001-05.

He earned his bachelor’s degree in business marketing from Bowling Green in 2001 and his master’s degree in educational administration and supervision in 2004.

A native of Youngstown, Ohio, Durkin and his wife Sarah have one daughter, Abigail, and one son, Luke.

DJ Durkin, one of the brightest young coaching minds in college football, was named the 36th head football coach in Maryland history on December 2, 2015.

Prior to arriving in College Park, Durkin served as the defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at the University of Michigan, leading a nationally-renowned defensive unit that ranked fourth in the country. Under Durkin, the Wolverines limited opponents to 17.2 points per game in 2015, in addition to shutting out three consecutive opponents – the longest such streak at Michigan in 35 years.

Durkin has also been an outstanding recruiter in his time as an assistant. At Florida, Durkin helped land four straight top-11 recruiting classes and was named Rivals.com’s 2012 Recruiter of the Year as a result. In total, Durkin contributed to the impressive recruitment of nine five-star prospects on the defensive side of the ball during that stretch.

Durkin’s immediate impact in Ann Arbor was also displayed in player development. Michigan had nine defensive All-Big Ten honorees, including a pair of first team defensive backs: Jourdan Lewis and Jabril Peppers. In addition, three Wolverines (Ryan Glasgow, Lewis and Peppers,) were named semifinalists for national defensive awards in 2015. The Wolverines improved defense was a major reason for the program’s four-win improvement over last season and for the team ranking as high as ninth in the nation.

As the defensive coordinator at Florida from 2013-14, Durkin led the Gators to consecutive top-15 rankings in total defense with the 15th-best mark in the country in 2014 (329.0 ypg) and the eighth-best (314.2 ypg) in 2013.

Florida’s 2014 team finished the year ranked in the top-10 in the nation in yards allowed per play (4.45), yards allowed per rush attempt (3.16) and yards allowed per pass attempt (5.9).

The group was highlighted by All-SEC first team selections Dante Fowler Jr., and defensive back Vernon Hargreaves, along with second-team all-conference honoree Antonio Morrison. Fowler was subsequently selected third overall in the 2015 NFL Draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars. His selection continued a stretch in which Gator defensive players were selected in the first round of three consecutive drafts.

In Durkin’s first season as defensive coordinator, Florida finished first in the SEC and seventh in the country in pass defense (171.8 yards per game), sixth in first downs allowed (16.1 per game) and 15th in scoring defense (21.1 points per game), while allowing only 27 touchdowns, the sixth fewest in the nation in 2013.

Durkin’s coaching paid dividends at the next level when defensive tackle Dominique Easley was drafted by the New England Patriots in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft.

GAME 1 RECAP: RICHMOND

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - William Likely set a Big Ten record with 233 yards in punt returns and Brandon Ross ran for career-high 150 yards and one touchdown as Maryland rolled to a season-opening 50-21 victory over Richmond on Saturday.

Perry Hills threw two touchdown passes for the Terrapins, who scored 37 straight points after falling behind 14-13 in the second quarter.

Likely returned eight punts, including a 67-yarder for a touchdown that made it 43-14 with 10:30 remaining. He had another return of 47 yards.

The 5-foot-7 junior also had two kickoff returns for 63 yards, giving him 296 yards in kick returns for the afternoon.

Ross averaged 8.3 yards per carry and put Maryland up 29-14 with a 21-yard TD run early in the third quarter. He eclipsed his previous career high of 149 yards before the quarter ended.

Making his first start since 2012, Hills completed 12 of 21 passes for 138 yards and an interception. The junior wasn’t exceptionally sharp, but he didn’t have to be because the Terrapins totaled 341 yards on the ground.

LIKELY SHINES IN TERPS’ SEASON-OPENING WINRichmond’s Kyle Lauletta went 18 for 30 for 220x yards. The Spiders mustered only 56 yards rushing, and Lauletta was sacked four times.

After Maryland took a quick 10-0 lead, Richmond went ahead 14-13 on a 4-yard run by Lauletta with 10:35 left in the second quarter.

Hills then directed a 12-play drive that produced a field goal by Brad Craddock, and a 37-yard touchdown catch by Malcolm Culmer made it 22-14 at halftime.

Ross scored the only touchdown of the third quarter, and a 1-yard touchdown run by Wes Brown made it 36-14.

Maryland then forced a punt, and Likely weaved his way through the Richmond defense before getting to the left sideline and diving into the end zone.

His 233-yard performance on punt returns broke the record set by Nile Kinnick of Iowa in 1939.

With the victory, Maryland improved to 5-0 in openers under coach Randy Edsall. The Terrapins have won six straight season openers and 11 of 12.

Cornerback William Likely broke a 76-year-old Big Ten record with 233 punt return yards versus Richmond.

GAME 2 RECAP: BOWLING GREEN

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Junior William Likely returned a punt for a touchdown for the second straight week, but Maryland fell to Bowling Green, 48-27, for its first loss of the season Saturday afternoon at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium.

Likely’s 85-yard punt return is tied for the second longest punt return in school history, matching the 85-yarder by Tony Logan against Florida International in 2010. The school record for the longest punt return belongs to Dick Nolan, who returned a punt 90 yards against Clemson in 1953.

Senior Brad Craddock added a pair of first half field goals to give the Terps (1-1) a 13-6 lead over Bowling Green (1-1) at the half.

After a 55-minute weather delay pushed back the start of the third quarter, a 58-yard TD pass from Matt Johnson to Roger Lewis tied the game at 13-13 less than three minutes into the second half.

Maryland responded with a big play of its own to go back in front 20-13 when junior Perry Hills hooked up with D.J. Moore on a slant that the true freshman took 42 yards to the end zone.

The Terps looked to have stopped Bowling Green on its ensuing drive when Alvin Hill picked off a Johnson

MARYLAND FALLS TO BOWLING GREENpass in the end zone, but an offside penalty on the Terps gave the Falcons a first-and-goal opportunity that Travis Greene converted into a score on the very next play to tie things at 20-20.

Bowling Green outscored the Terps 28-7 in the fourth quarter to earn the victory in the team’s first-ever meeting.

Johnson completed eight of 10 throws in the final frame, posting 134 yards and four touchdowns in the fourth quarter.

After the Falcons took their first lead of the game less than a minute into the fourth quarter, Maryland answered back with an 8-play, 75-yard scoring drive that was capped by a 22-yard TD pass from Hills to junior Levern Jacobs.

The Terrapins struggled down the stretch, turning the ball over on their final three drives.

Hills finished the game completing 15 of 30 passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns, while also compiling 94 yards on the ground on eight rushes.

Junior Yannick Ngakoue posted a career-high three sacks, while senior Sean Davis finished the game with 14 tackles to pace the Maryland defense.

Defensive end Yannick Ngakoue posted a career-high and team season-high 3.0 sacks versus Bowling Green.

GAME 3 RECAP: USF

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Caleb Rowe threw for 297 yards and four touchdowns in his first start since 2013, and Maryland notched a 35-17 victory over South Florida on Saturday.

Despite throwing three interceptions, the junior completed 21 of 33 passes and provided enough big plays to help the Terrapins (2-1) finish with 411 yards in offense.

Rowe threw touchdown passes of 12 and 22 yards to Avery Edwards; connected with Taivon Jacobs for a 70-yard score and hit Kenneth Goins Jr. for a 1-yard TD.

Maryland fumbled three times and totaled 12 penalties for 120 yards, but South Florida (1-2) also had its share of miscues -- including two turnovers, a dropped potential touchdown pass, a holding call that wiped out a touchdown run, and a personal foul penalty that erased a fourth-quarter first down when the score was 28-17.

USF quarterback Quinton Flowers went 10 for 19 for 60 yards with a touchdown pass and an interception. He was replaced for a series in the fourth quarter by Steve Bench, who was 0 for 3 with a pick.

The game turned late in the first half after South Florida used a 12-play drive to get a field goal and close to 14-10.

ROWE THROWS FOR 4TDs IN WIN OVER USF

Starting at his own 34 with 52 seconds left, Rowe completed passed of 10 and 49 yards to Levern Jacobs. On first-and-goal at the USF 2, Rowe botched a pitch to Brandon Ross, who picked up the ball and took it into the end zone with 10 seconds remaining.

Maryland opened the second half with 45-yard kickoff return by Ty Johnson. Five plays later, Edwards made an excellent over-the-shoulder catch of a Rowe pass in the end zone for a 28-10 lead.

That proved to be enough to assure the Terrapins their second victory of the season.

Maryland’s opening drive ended when USF’s Devin Abraham returned an interception 42 yards, setting up a 4-yard touchdown pass from Flowers to Rodney Adams.

Rowe bounced back to direct a 59-yard drive, capped by a TD pass to Goins. Then, on the last play of the quarter, Rowe connected with Jacobs deep on the right sideline for a 70-yard score.

Last year, South Florida led Maryland in the fourth quarter before falling 24-17. In this one, the Terrapins took control much earlier and breezed through the final 15 minutes.

Wide receiver Levern Jacobs caught eight passes for 107 yards - his third career 100-yard performance.

GAME 4 RECAP: WEST VIRGINIA

MORGANTOWN, W. Va. - Senior Brandon Ross ran for 130 yards on 15 carries, but the Maryland football team fell, 45-6, to West Virginia Saturday afternoon.

The Terrapins (2-2) drove into West Virginia (2-0) territory multiple times, but were unable to capitilize. The Mountaineers jumped out to an early lead to clinch the victory.

Ross ran 55 yards to the West Virginia 1 late in the second quarter. Ross was ruled down before he fumbled out of the end zone, but the call was overturned and West Virginia took possession on the resulting touchback.

ROSS RUNS WELL IN LOSS TO WVUCaleb Rowe started the game, but was replaced late in the third quarter by Daxx Garman who got Maryland on the board with a 46-yard scoring toss to Jarvis Davenport.

Ross ran for 129 yards in the first half on 12 carries (10.8 yards/rush). It was the most rushing yards in the first half for a Maryland player since Josh Allen ran for 154 yards on Nov. 11, 2013.

Maryland returns to action next Saturday against Michigan. Kickoff from Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium is scheduled for 8 p.m., and the game can be seen live on BTN.

GAME 5 RECAP: MICHIGAN

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Michigan scored three second-half touchdowns en route to a 28-0 victory over Maryland Saturday afternoon in front of a sell-out crowd of 51,802 at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium.

The 22nd-ranked Wolverines won their fourth straight game to improve to 4-1 and 1-0 in Big Ten play. The Terps (2-3, 0-1) dropped consecutive regular season games for the first time since 2013.

Maryland’s defense was stout throughout the opening 15 minutes of play, limiting the Wolverines to just 41 total yards, with just nine of those coming on the ground.

The Terrapins had a chance to take the lead following a fumble recovery by Sean Davis with 1:36 left in the first, but a Caleb Rowe interception stifled the scoring opportunity as a screen pass went through the hands of Brandon Ross.

TERPS DROP BIG TEN OPENER TO #22 MICHIGANMichigan led 6-0 at halftime before pulling away with two third quarter touchdowns. After Jake Rudock connected with Drake Johnson for a 31-yard score, wide receiver Jehu Chesson took an inside handoff and sprinted down the left sideline for a 66-yard touchdown to make it 21-0.

Ross finished with 44 yards on the ground for the Terps, leaving him just 13 yards shy of 2,000 career rushing yards. Jermaine Carter Jr. led Maryland with eight tackles, while Quinton Jefferson posted a sack, forced fumble and his first career interception.

GAME 6 RECAP: OHIO STATE

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Perry Hills set a new program quarterback record with 170 rushing yards but the Maryland football team fell, 49-28, to No. 1 Ohio State on Saturday.

Hills rushed for two touchdowns and threw for another one, a 52-yard pass to D.J. Moore in the first quarter. The junior finished the afternoon with 133 passing yards.

The game swung in the Terrapins’ favor when Ohio State missed a 44-yard field goal with 1:12 remaining in the first half. On the first play from scrimmage, Hills broke loose for a 75-yard scamper through the heart of the Buckeye defense. Hills then finished the drive with a 3-yard rush into the endzone to draw the Terps within a touchdown, 21-14, heading into halftime.

The Terps carried their momentum into the second half, capping off a 9-play, 69-yard drive with a 4-yard Hill touchdown rush to tie the game, 21-21.

DESPITE STRONG START, TERPS FALL AT #1 OHIO STATEThe starpower of the Buckeyes (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten) and running back Ezekiel Elliott (2 TD’s) proved too much for the Terrapins (2-4, 0-2) as they shook free in the second half and extended their nation’s best winning streak to 19. Ohio State has won 26 straight regular-season conference games.

Ohio State coach Urban Meyer juggled his quarterbacks, using Jones to start drives and Barrett to finish them. Jones threw a 19-yard TD pass to Braxton Miller and connected on a 48-yarder to Jalin Marshall.

Trailing, 49-21, late in the game, Maryland used six plays and a 1-yard Wes Brown touchdown run to finish the scoring.

Junior Perry Hills ran for 170 yards on the ground - a Maryland record for a quarterback.

GAME 9 RECAP: WISCONSIN

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Maryland put up a fight on Homecoming, with Perry Hills and Caleb Rowe each throwing for a score, but Wisconsin was able to hold on to defeat the Terps, 31-24, in front of 44,678 at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium.

Wisconsin won its fifth straight game to improve to 8-2 overall and 5-1 in the Big 10. The Terps fall to 2-7 on the year and 0-5 in league play.

Junior running back Wes Brown rushed for a seven-yard touchdown to give Maryland a 7-0 lead in the first quarter. It was his third touchdown of the season and 11th of his career.

Trailing 17-10, Hills found freshman wide receiver D.J. Moore for a 40-yard touchdown that sent the game into halftime all tied up. Moore has three touchdown grabs on the year, the most by a Maryland freshman since current NFL standout Stefon Diggs had six touchdowns in 2012.

TERPS COME UP SHORT vs. BADGERS, 31-24Wisconsin finished off a seven-play, 71-yard drive with a seven-yard touchdown pass from Joel Stave to Dare Ogunbowale less than a minute into the fourth quarter. That score gave the Badgers a 31-17 lead over the Terrapins.

With Rowe in at quarterback, the Terps moved the ball late in the fourth quarter. The junior completed five passes for 81 yards on a drive that culminated with a 27-yard scoring strike to Levern Jacobs with 2:39 to go to make it a 31-24 game.

Maryland recover the ensuing onside kick, but an offside penalty on the Terps nullified the play. Wisconsin was able to cover up the next onside attempt and run out the remainder of the clock.

Maryland’s 24 points against Wisconsin, the nation’s leading defense (11.0 points per game), is the most points scored against the Badgers since their season-opening loss to Alabama (35-17).

Wide receiver D.J. Moore caught his third touchdown pass of the season - the most for a Maryland true freshman since Stefon Diggs in 2012.

GAME 10 RECAP: MICHIGAN STATE

EAST LANSING, Mich. - Despite a standout day from the defense that included forcing three turnovers, the Maryland football team fell to #14 Michigan State, 24-7, Saturday at Spartan Stadium.

Junior defensive end Yannick Ngakoue posted 1.5 sacks in the game to bring his season total to 12.5 (second in the nation), while William Likely finished with 75 all-purpose yards to become the first defensive player (12th overall) in Maryland history to reach 3,000 career all-purpose yards.

The Spartans broke the scoreless tie eight minutes into the first quarter when quarterback Tyler O’Connor capped off a 10-play drive with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Macgarrett Kings.

The Terps immediately responded with their own 10-play scoring drive, as running back Brandon Ross crossed the goal line from one yard out. The drive was largely set up by Perry Hills and Levern Jacobs, who connected for 50 yards on the series.

DEFENSE STRONG IN TERPS’ LOSS TO SPARTANS

The Maryland defense stood tall for the next 20 minutes of action, but it was Riley Bullough’s interception for a touchdown that broke the 7-7 draw with 2:07 to play in the first half. Michigan State then added a field goal from 35 yards out to close the half, giving the Spartans a 17-7 advantage.

The Spartans extended their advantage in the second half when they finished an 11-play drive with a Gerald Holmes 3-yard rushing touchdown.

Senior Anthony Nixon had two interceptions at Michigan State- a personal single-game career-high.

GAME 11 RECAP: INDIANA

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Senior Brandon Ross became just the fourth Terrapin to rush for 250 yards or more in a game, but Maryland lost its 2015 home finale to Indiana, 47-28, at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium Saturday afternoon.

Ross joins LaMont Jordan (306 yards vs. Virginia, 1999), Bruce Perry (276 yards vs. Wake Forest, 2001) and Josh Allen (257 yards vs. Virginia, 2003) as the only Terps to rush for more than 250 yards in a game. The senior also scored three touchdowns in the game, making him the first player in Maryland history to have at least 250 yards rushing in a game with three or more touchdowns.

The 250-yard performance also vaulted Ross up the career rushing list for the Terps. He now has 2,375 career rushing yards, which places him ninth on the all-time list, passing Willie Joyner (2,140 yards, 1980-83), Alvin Blount (2,158 yards, 1983-86) and Louis Carter (2,266 yards, 1972-74).

After the Hoosiers opened the game with a field goal, Maryland rattled off 21 straight points. On the Terps’ second play from scrimmage, Ross raced 79 yards down the right sideline for the score to give Maryland a 7-3 lead. The 79-yard rush was the longest of the season for the Terrapins, surpassing Perry Hills’ 75-yard rush at Ohio State.

Ross’ 79-yarder was the longest TD run by a Terrapin since the 2010 Military Bowl when Da’Rel Scott had a 91-yard TD run vs. East Carolina on Dec. 28 at RFK Stadium.

After the Maryland defense forced a punt on the next IU possession, Ross gave the Terps a 14-3 lead with a 22-yard touchdown run down the right side. On the drive, junior quarterback Caleb Rowe went 4-of-6 passing for 50 yards.

ROSS ERUPTS FOR 250 YARDS IN TERPS LOSSA strip-sack by Yannick Ngakoue and a fumble recovery by Quinton Jefferson on the ensuing Indiana drive gave Maryland excellent field possession on the Hoosiers’ 20-yard line. That led to a 14-yard TD pass from Rowe to Malcolm Culmer to make it a 21-3 lead for the Terps.

The sack by Ngakoue gave him the single-season record for the Terrapins with 13.5, surpassing the 13 put up by Bruce Palmer in 1978 and Mark Duda in 1982.

Indiana responded by scoring all 20 points in the second quarter to go into halftime with a 30-21 lead.

Ross wasted no time getting Maryland on the board in the third quarter. The senior took a handoff on the first play of the second half and sprinted 75 yards down the right sideline for his third long TD run of the game.

The scoring run was Ross’ third of the day, setting a new single-game high for the senior in his final home game. The last time a Maryland player rushed for three scores in a game was Aug. 30, 2014 when C.J. Brown had three rushing TDs vs. James Madison.

The 75-yard run gave Ross 226 yards on 14 carries. The last time a Terp had 200+ yards on the ground was Dec. 29, 2010 when Da’Rel Scott had 201 yards on 13 carries vs. East Carolina in the Military Bowl.

Through three quarters Ross has racked up 228 yards on 17 carries. The 228 yards rushing were the most in a game by a Terp since 2003 when Bruce Perry had 237 yards vs. Wake Forest.

The third Ross touchdown was the final score of the game for the Terps, who played the entire second half without an injured Rowe.

Brandon Ross had a memorable Senior Day, becoming the first player in Maryland history to run for 250 yards and three touchdowns.

GAME 12 RECAP: RUTGERS

PISCATAWAY, N.J. - Brandon Ross scored on an 80-yard run with 4:40 to play and Maryland erased a 21-point deficit to claim a 46-41 victory on Saturday.

After playing in his final game, Ross said the Terps’ biggest comeback since overcoming a 20-point deficit against Virginia in 2006 should send a message to the returning players about never giving up.

“We wanted this win so bad, especially with how they came back on us last season,” Ross said, referring to Rutgers rallying from a 25-point deficit to win. “We really wanted this one bad and we came back and got it.”

Ross ran for three touchdowns for the second straight game and Ty Johnson carried for two more as the Terrapins (3-9, 1-7 Big Ten) gave interim coach Mike Locksley his first win in six games and snapped an eight-game overall losing streak.

Ross’ go-ahead score came on the first play from scrimmage after Kyle Federico had put Rutgers ahead 41-39 with a 30-yard field goal with 4:57 to play.

Ross said the offense never doubted it would come back and take the lead.

“We knew at that point, we had momentum, and we were going to go down and get a score and the defense was going to stop them somehow,” Ross said. “There was no doubt.”

Ross scored on a counter to give his team the lead and Maryland’s defense stopped Robert Martin twice for no gain at the Terps 38 to kill Rutgers’ final drive with 1:25 to play.

TERPS SLICE RUTGERS IN COMEBACK VICTORY“We all knew that we were going to come back,” said backup quarterback Caleb Rowe, who came off the bench in the second quarter and threw for 239 yards and ran for 98. “Nobody was down on themselves. It was something we have been through before. We just battled on back.”

Kenneth Goins Jr. had given Maryland its first lead at 39-38 with a 42-yard touchdown run with 8:43 to play and Federico gave Rutgers its final lead on the next series.

Chris Laviano threw a career-best four touchdowns and Paul James ran for a touchdown for Rutgers (4-8, 1-7), which lost five of its final six games.

Ross rushed for 173 yards and also scored on runs of 16 yards and 1 yard. Johnson tallied on runs of 43 and 44 yards.

Maryland finished with 401 yards rushing and had 656 yards in total offense, the first time it has passed the 600-yard mark since 2004.

Laviano’s touchdown passes covered 6 yards to Leonte Carroo, 6 yards to Josh Hicks, 7 yards to Janarion Grant and 1 yard to Charles Scarff.

Scarff’s first career touchdown gave the Scarlet Knights a 38-27 lead late in the third quarter, but it would not be enough to hold off Maryland, which limited Rutgers to 10 second-half points after its biggest first half of the season.

Trailing 31-10 late in the second quarter after a 6-yard touchdown run by James, the Terps got back in the game by reeling off 17 straight points to close the gap to 31-27 on Johnson’s 44-yard run.

Senior Brandon Ross ran for 173 yards and three touchdowns in his final game in a Maryland uniform.
