Prediction:
Maryland struggled with their consistency on both sides of the ball for much of the season. The only constant was QB C.J. Brown, and even he struggled in the big games (Wisconsin and Ohio State). Maryland had problems against teams that ran the ball well. Luckily for the Terps, Stanford doesn’t run all that well this year.
Stanford once again has a lock-down defense, but they often struggle to move the ball. Ty Montgomery is a dynamic playmaker, and Devin Cajuste could be the best receiving TE in college, but Kevin Hogan has regressed at the QB position this year. Of course, Stanford’s inability to run the ball has had something to do with that.
The only time that Stanford’s defense struggled was against Oregon. Maryland doesn’t have the speed or the playmakers to stretch the field and put pressure on the Stanford defense. Maryland might get some points, but it will all depend on which team shows up. This line is up four points, and I think it may have risen just a hair too far. I have a serious problem with taking a team with a one dimensional offense to cover more than a two touchdown spread. I think it stays closer, but Stanford wins.
Pick: Maryland
