Maryland got an impressive early season win by destroying Syracuse. Maryland's offense currently looks unstoppable. They've got Temple next and should be 3-0 heading into what now looks like a pretty big game against Penn State.  |

Best win of the season thus far by any team. Made a decent Syracuse team look like an early-season cupcake. |

UP 9I legit thought I would be dropping them off my top 25 this week.  Instead, they had a top 5 win of this week and look legitimate above average?  Super interesting to see how they do in conference play. |

Maryland may be for real this year. That win against Syracuse was eyebrow raising, on top of their brutal takedown of Howard. They enter my ballot for the first time this year. |

Frankly impressive start for Maryland. We've seen this before (sorta) from them at the beginning of the season. If they can stay healthy they might actually remain. I suspect as they enter their tough conference play, they might drop. But how they're playing right now, I expect they'd match up well with the teams they're near. UCF vs Maryland anybody!? |

I wanna believe this win is more about Maryland than Syracuse but part of me is scared Syracuse has just fallen off... either way, it's as good as almost anything this early |

So this Maryland team might be pretty could. It looks like they put on some steel-toed boots and are ready to kick the teeth in of anyone who gets in their way. I've got not problem taking them from unranked to 17th after what they have shown us. |

Completely dismantled
a ranked Syracuse team. I still can't quite believe they won by so much. I
can't decide if I think Syracuse was just over rated or if Maryland is legit |

Maryland moves into the Top 25 by taking Syracuse to town. I was tempted to move them higher but am holding off on that for now. |

Tons of upward momentum here.  Demolished a Syracuse team that I thought was fairly solid across the board.  We've seen Maryland play this game before, but if they can hold it together they'll continue to climb quickly.   |

FCS games don't count in my rankings so Maryland only has one game while most of these other teams have two, yet they won so massively they got into the top 25. Holy offense. |

Honestly, Maryland could be a lot higher than they are here, and if this were a purely retrospective poll they would be. However, I've never quite been as high on Syracuse as most, and I also remember Josh Jackson's struggles at Virginia Tech. I think he has a better roster fit at Maryland and the Terrapins have the potential to really take the Big Ten by storm this year. On the other hand, let's remember the last team which opened up dropping 70+ points on a cupcake before blowing out Syracuse and beating a ranked ACC opponent by the score of 63-20. That would be 2016 Louisville, who followed their red-hot start with struggles against Duke, Virginia, and Wake Forest before falling apart down the stretch, finishing 9-4 and ranked #21 in the AP Poll. |

Although I think Syracuse was overrated(not ranked in either of my two polls so far) Maryland has looked legit enough that they deserve some recognition. Welcome to the top 25, Terps, |

Maryland, you've started out strong only to break my heart too many times this last decade. This team does look better than the Texas-beating meme teams, but get through PSU and I'll gladly shoot you up the rankings and sing your praise. |
