Virginia Tech 36, Maryland 9

What can you say about yesterday's game that wasn't said on the scoreboard or the pictures below? The Terps were never in this game. Virginia Tech was the superior team yesterday and it showed.

The thing that really upsets me is the rate these Terps are getting injured. Two more players are likely out for the year after suffering injuries during the game.

So here are pictures from yesterday's game. Click for a larger view. These were taken with a Nikon D40 and AF-S Nikkor 70-300mm zoom lens.

Maryland pride. Despite the bad season, this is the school I rooted for as a kid, my Dad is a graduate and I'll never give up on the Terps.
