Maryland Terrapins Tickets

2005 Maryland Terrapins football tickets, annually one the hottest tickets in the Atlantic Coast Conference, will grant college football fans a chance to see the Terrapins attempt to rebound from last season’s disappointing 5-6 campaign and return to their days as ACC champions. But it won’t be easy. The ACC is loaded from top to bottom with some of college football’s elite teams, like the Florida State Seminoles, Virginia Tech Hokies and newcomers to the ACC, the Boston College Eagles. With competition like this, ACC fans are already lining up for Maryland football tickets in hopes of getting back in line later in the season for ACC Championship Game tickets.

In his first season roaming the sidelines of dazzling Byrd Stadium, Terrapins’ head coach Ralph Friedgen shocked the college football landscape by bringing the 2001 ACC championship home to College Park, Maryland. Entering his fifth season as head Terrapin, Friedgen boasts an impressive 36-14 mark and has led Maryland to three bowl games during his tenure. In order to punch the Terrapins’ ticket back to a bowl game in 2005, Friedgen knows the offense must improve from last season’s lackluster performance. But he can take pride in the offense’s production in the Terrapins’ 20-17 win over Bobby Bowden’s Florida State Seminoles last October.

More than 52,000 fans bought Maryland football tickets and packed into Byrd Stadium to see the Terrapins take on the fifth-ranked Seminoles and their explosive offensive attack. To the delight of the Maryland ticket holders, Terrapins’ quarterback Joel Statham, who is one of three QBs battling for this year’s starting role, threw a 72-yard touchdown pass to Josh Allen and ran for a score to help Friedgen’s group jump out to a 20-3 lead on Bowden’s Seminoles. The Terrapin defense would handle the rest.

Led by All-American linebacker D’Qwell Jackson, the Terrapins defense thrilled Maryland football ticket holders by constantly harassing Florida State quarterbacks Chris Rix and Wyatt Sexton. The Terrapins limited the Seminoles to only 54 yards rushing and kept Bowden’s offense out of the end zone until midway through the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, Statham was lighting up the Florida State secondary for 333 yards, as the Terrapins beat the Seminoles for the first time in school history.

The excitement generated from that historic victory has the Terrapin faithful anxiously scrambling around to get their hands on Maryland football tickets for the 2005 college football season. Don’t miss the next historic win; get your Maryland Terrapins tickets today.
