Last week: Lost at Wisconsin, 23-10
Recap: The legend lives on from Piscataway on down
Of the big flop they called ‘Terp Kablooey’
Maryland, it’s said, never ends up ahead
When the Terps of November start losing
A wide receiver corps with four dudes who can score
Masked a defense, uh, slightly less… sturdy?
But that good team, it’s true, wouldn’t stay 6 and 2
When the gales of November came early
The team was doing fine on the Big Ten’s East side
When they flew out to breezy Wisconsin
As Maryland teams go, it was better than most
With a QB and linemen well-seasoned
Concluding a year with maybe nine wins
And dreams of bowl games in sunny Orlando
And when kickoff was nigh and the flags whipping up high
Could it be the collapse they’d been fearin'?
When huddle time came, Taulia brought ‘em in, sayin'
"Receivers, it's too rough to feed ya"
And as Jump Around played, and the line had caved in, he said
"Fellas, it's been good to know ya"
Locksley called in, he had rushers on the edge
And the QB and backs were in peril
And at 3 yards a pass, with the D-Line on his ass
Came the wreck of the ‘22 Terrapins
Does anyone know: where does Maryland go
When they lose to Penn State and Ohio?
The pundits all say that they'll meet Duke or Wake
In the Pinstripe Bowl, brought by New Era
Ohio State rolls, The Nittany Lions sing
In the Big Ten East standings each season
Old Michigan steams like a 1970’s dream
And the Playoff Committee takes notice
And farther below State and Rutgers, you know
Take the wins the Big Ten West can send ‘em
But Terps will no-show, as the Marylanders all know
And as tales of November remind ‘em
The legend lives on from Piscataway on down
Of the big flop they called ‘Terp Kablooey’
Maryland, it’s said, never ends up ahead
When the Terps of November start losing
This week: @ Penn State, 3:30, FOX (Maryland +10)
