Maryland football rebounded from a previous loss to Michigan State with a decisive 27-13 win over Virginia, marking their 14th consecutive non-conference victory. Quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. accounted for three touchdowns, while wide receiver Tai Felton continued his impressive start to the season with nine catches for 117 yards and a touchdown. Despite a sloppy first half, Maryland's defense, led by safety Dante Trader Jr., recorded four takeaways and shut out Virginia in the second half. The Terps now focus on an upcoming nonconference game against Villanova, a strong FCS team. Coach Mike Locksley emphasized the importance of staying in the moment and learning from both successes and mistakes. Virginia struggled with turnovers and third-down conversions, which ultimately cost them the game.
