OT: Maryland trolls Texas Longhorns’ SEC interest
Whenever you can take a deserved shot at a big-time school, especially if you’re one still working to get your footing, you take it.
Such is the case for Maryland, a team that twice played Texas in a home-and-home series that the Longhorns were expected to win, but walked away with the two-year sweep in 2017-18.
Texas is famously, along with Oklahoma, looking to depart the Big 12 for the SEC, and the Terps got their shots in on Twitter given the outcome of the past two games. The official Maryland Terrapins Twitter account posted a meme on Friday highlighting that perhaps the Longhorns are heading to the SEC to avoid losing yet again to the Big Ten East school.

Texas does lead the all-time series against Maryland, 3-2, having won in 1959, 1960 and 1978. But still, it’s a well done social media campaign for a school looking to assert itself in a tough conference and division.
