AU-Maryland on tap

On tap tonight: American visits No. 21 Maryland. Win this one, AU fans, you deserve to storm the court.

None of the "experts" give AU a chance in this game.

According to the Washington Post this will be a chance for Gary Williams to get some minutes for his bench. The moonie paper's preview plays the "Williams used to coach AU" angle.

Likewise, the Baltimore Sun made mention that Williams "will be facing the school tonight that gave him his first head-coaching job in 1978. Williams is 8-0 against American and his team won last season's meeting by 31 points."

Not one of these three previews mentions any AU players or says anything about how well the Eagles have been playing.

If the Terps take them as lightly as the writers, AU just might make this interesting.

Not predicting any upset. But stranger things have happened when teams get caught looking past an opponent.
