Big game this afternoon as the Terps will celebrate the career of Julian Reese on Senior Day as they look to clinch a double-bye with a win.
Despite having lost in OT at Northwestern earlier this season, KenPom gives the Terps an 81% chance of winning with a predicted score of 76-66. Brooks Barnhizer, who scored 20 points and added 10 rebounds for the Wildcats in the first meeting is out for the rest of the season with a foot injury. At 6-foot-6 he might have been a bit undersized as a PF, but losing him was a major blow to Northwestern. Terps have to take advantage inside with him out of the lineup.
For the Terps, this game is about just keeping the momentum rolling into the postseason and keep trying to get a little more out of the bench. Maryland has likely played their way up to a 4 seed and with a few more Quad 1 wins could be looking at a 3 seed.
As a reminder for those out of the area, the game can be seen on Peacock at the top of the hour.
