Virginia Favored Over Maryland In 1968 Finale
Virginia enters the 1968 season finale at Scott Stadium as a 21 point favorite over Maryland with a 6 3 record and 3 2 in the ACC. A victory would give Virginia its best conference finish and extend a series of wins over Maryland to four, while preserving a season ending unbeaten record for coach George Blackburn. Maryland 2 7 and led by Billy Lovett and Alan Pastrana presents a bruising challenge in a high scoring, hard hitting matchup. Rick Kotulak is doubtful for Virginia with a leg injury.
