What a ridiculous figment of your imagination. Anyway, Michigan beat Maryland. Yes. Let's talk about it. Specifically, let's talk about how the player with the fewest points among M's top eight rotation players had the biggest impact on the team's hot start. Not Just A Bucket

Maryland can't contain Iowa or Luka Garza in lopsided defeat Follow Us Question of the Day By Andy Kostka - The Washington Times - Thursday, January 7, 2021 Mercifully, Donta Scott’s 3-pointer fell through the hoop, ending a run of nearly nine minutes in which Maryland basketball couldn’t score, turned the ball over five times and became a sieve defensively. The Terrapins missed 11 shots and watched as No. 5 Iowa scored 20 straight points to turn a 10-point deficit into a 10-point advantage. And Scott’s ...
