WHAT’S AT STAKE?

This has already been a milestone season for the Hoosiers — starting 4-0 for the eighth time, breaking single-game school records for scoring and total offense and positioning themselves to become the third team to go 5-0 in the program’s 140-year history — the first since 1967. Maryland is coming off a blowout win over Villanova and needs a victory to even its conference record after a deflating Week 2 loss at home against Michigan State.

KEY MATCHUP

Maryland’s secondary vs. Indiana QB Kurtis Rourke. The Terrapins’ pass defense held up last week and it will be essential to replicate that performance this week against Rourke and the high-scoring Hoosiers. Rourke has been completed 75.5% of his throws for 1,013 yards. He’s tied for second in the Big Ten with eight TD passes and has two TD runs.

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Maryland: Tai Felton. The fourth-year receiver has at least seven receptions and one TD catch in every game this season while topping the 100-yard mark in all four, too. After recording 14 catches, 157 yards and one TD last week, everyone — including the Hoosiers secondary — will be focusing on Felton this week.

Indiana: Offensive line. It has done an incredible job helping to keep coach Curt Cignetti’s offense balanced with a stronger than anticipated ground game while keeping Rourke upright. The Hoosiers have allowed just two sacks through four games, a stark contrast from recent seasons, though Maryland will be this unit’s second major test.
