What an absolute disaster for the B1G. Another game bites the dust. Indiana/Purdue is already off, Ohio State reportedly has issues and now this game has been canceled.
The B1G East is getting absolutely hammered right now by coronavirus.

The good news is that the Michigan State/Maryland game has exactly zero impact on the playoff race or major bowls.
It’s just a B1G East matchup between two teams that likely aren’t going far when it comes to the bowl season.
That might sound harsh, but it’s 100% true. The Terrapins didn’t address playing in a bowl in their statement, but I’d say it seems unlikely given the fact that team activities are suspended.
