On the other side, the Terrapins boast their own set of stars, including running back Antwain Littleton II who has consistently bulldozed through defenses. Littleton II's remarkable performance, rushing for 113 yards in a single game, underscores his potential to turn the tide in favor of Maryland.


The Spartans' defense cannot be overlooked either, with linebacker Aaron Alexander leading the charge. Alexander's ability to disrupt plays and his defensive prowess will be crucial in containing Maryland's dynamic offense. His contributions on defense have been significant across previous games, making him a player to watch.
