How to watch Maryland Terps vs. Penn State Nittany Lions football on TV, live stream

The Maryland Terrapins nearly went 0-for-October.

The Terps (5-3, 2-3) lost three straight games and trailed Indiana in the third quarter last week before rallying for a 38-35 win over the Hoosiers to get back into the win column before the close of the month.

They'll try to build on that victory Saturday in College Park against a team experiencing a drought of its own in longtime foe No. 23 Penn State.

The Nittany Lions (5-3, 2-3) won their first five games of the season and climbed all the way to No. 4 in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA football coaches Top 25 poll before hitting their own three-game skid.

Penn State lost a three-point game against No. 3 Iowa and a nine-overtime thriller to Illinois before falling to No. 5 Ohio State last week, 33-24.
