Indiana overwhelmed Maryland 55-10 on Saturday, with the Hoosiers controlling the game from start to finish. Indiana's defense was particularly dominant in the third quarter, forcing turnovers and shutting down Maryland's offense.

The game saw significant momentum swings, with 31 lead changes throughout the contest. Maryland's passing attack, led by Malik Washington's 242 yards, couldn't generate consistent scoring. Washington threw an interception to K. Turner in the second quarter and had a pass fall incomplete on a turnover on downs late in the third.

Indiana's offensive weapons made an impact, with Omar Cooper Jr. leading receivers with 86 yards and Roman Hemby rushing for 88 yards. The Hoosiers' defense capitalized on Maryland mistakes, including a 32-yard fumble return for a touchdown by Devan Boykin in the third quarter.

The contest went over the 51-point over-under line, and Indiana easily covered the 21-point spread. The scoring was heavily skewed toward the Hoosiers, who outscored Maryland 21-7 in the third quarter alone before adding 14 more points in the fourth.
