Members of Maryland’s Board of Regents are awaiting a private telephone briefing – scheduled for late this afternoon – by university president Wallace D. Loh on the school’s proposed move to the Big Ten.

The conference call is in advance of a regents meeting on Monday to consider the move.

Regents heard about Maryland’s talks with the Big Ten over the past several days. Loh’s briefing today is believed to be an important step in explaining the school’s rationale for considering leaving the Atlantic Coast Conference, of which Maryland was an original member.

According to the 10:43 AM article, this move could mean a rivalry between Maryland and Penn State in football being resumed:'

A move to the Big Ten would mean the resumption of a longtime Maryland-Penn State football series that was popular with local fans but was dominated by the Nittany Lions. Penn State beat Maryland, 70-7, in 1993, the last time they played.

How would you guys like watching Maryland and Penn State playing each other in football again?
