COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) – Iowa and Maryland will meet on the football field for the time Saturday in a Big Ten clash at Byrd Stadium. The Hawkeyes are 5-1 overall, have won three straight and can remain in first place in the West Division with a victory. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says his players shouldn’t have a problem in a venue they’ve never seen before. The plan, he says, is to simply, “look around a little bit” and then go play.

Maryland is coming off a bye and seeking its first Big Ten win at home. The Terrapins lost to Ohio State 52-24 two weeks ago. Maryland brings a 4-2 record into the second half of the season, 1-1 in the Big Ten.
