It’s not easy to win in the Kohl Center, and it will be no different here. However, there’s something about getting free points with the better team that makes it hard to turn down. I don’t care if this game was played in a pineapple under the sea, the Maryland Terrapins are the better team, and that includes winning by an average of 23 points in two game where they’ve been underdogs this season. Give me the free bucket.
