10/22/22 - RB Roman Hemby, rSr/2026, Indiana

Roman Hemby ran for 179 yards and three touchdowns, including a sensational 75-yard sprint with 3:22 remaining that gave Maryland a 31-24 victory over Northwestern on Saturday. The Terrapins (6-2, 3-2 Big Ten) overcame the absence of standout quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa, who aggravated a knee sprain last weekend. This is the earliest they've become bowl eligible since 2001, when they did it on Oct. 11. It wasn't easy. Northwestern tied it at 24 with 3:34 remaining on a 9-yard scoring run by Andrew Clair. On the first play of Maryland's next drive, Hemby slipped through a hole on the left side and outran everyone for the touchdown that put the Terps back in front. Brendan Sullivan's deep pass was intercepted by Maryland's Beau Brade with 3:02 to play. Billy Edwards Jr. - who helped Maryland win at Indiana last weekend after Tagovailoa was carted off - threw for 166 yards and a TD against Northwestern.

The Wildcats (1-6, 1-3) led 17-7 late in the second quarter, but they dropped their sixth straight game since winning the opener against Nebraska in Ireland. Evan Hull ran for 119 yards and caught a touchdown pass for Northwestern. Edwards was under constant pressure in the first half and had to scramble out of trouble quite a bit. The Terps were unable to turn first-and-goal from the 2 into a touchdown at the end of the first half. They settled for a field goal and trailed 17-10. An interception by Dante Trader Jr. early in the third quarter set Maryland up near midfield, and Hemby's 18-yard scoring run eventually tied the game. The Terps took a 24-17 lead later in the quarter on a 30-yard touchdown strike from Edwards to Rakim Jarrett. - Maryland/AP College Football
