Jeshaun Jones - Scores in tight lossJones tallied nine catches (on 10 targets) for 78 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 33-27 defeat versus Northwestern.

ImpactJones caught and 18-yard touchdown pass with just under four minutes remaining, pulling the score to 33-27. However, the Terps ultimately came up short, as quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa threw an interception in the red zone of the following drive. Jones tied with tight end Cory Dyches for a team high in targets ahead of wideout Tai Felton (nine) and running back Roman Hemby (eight). Jones narrowly leads the Terps in receptions (36) and receiving yards (496), but he only has the team's third-most receiving scores with three. He should continue to play a big role in the receiving game Week 10 versus Penn State.

Taulia Tagovailoa - Throws three TDs in lossTagovailoa was 30-for-47 passing for 274 yards, three touchdowns and one interception during Saturday's 33-27 defeat against Northwestern. He also had 12 rushes for one yard.

ImpactTagovailoa was under consistent pressure from Northwestern's defensive front, taking six sacks. This included a strip sack that led to a Wildcats touchdown in the first quarter. The graduate senior responded with his second passing touchdown of the game on the Terps' ensuing drive, finding running back Roman Hemby for a 24-yard score. Tagovailoa also nearly engineered a late comeback, hitting wideout Jeshaun Jones for an 18-yard score with just under four minutes remaining; but, he finished the game by throwing a red-zone interception after a critical dropped pass by wideout Tai Felton on the previous play. Tagovailoa has now totaled 17 touchdowns to five turnovers across the last five games. He and the Terps will face one of their toughest opposing defenses of the season against Penn State in Week 10.

Brendan Sullivan - Totals over 300 yards in upsetSullivan completed 16 of 23 passes for 265 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 33-27 victory versus Maryland. He also had 14 rushes for 56 yards.

ImpactSullivan put together the best all-around performance of his career, with highs in both passing and rushing yards. The junior signal-caller was called upon to start for the third week in a row in place of injured starter Ben Bryant (upper body). Sullivan cooled off after going 12-for-14 passing for 159 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, but he still showed strong control of the offense throughout the course of the game. This solid showing is an encouraging sign for Sullivan, especially after he had a subpar outing versus Nebraska in Week 8. He'll face probably his biggest test of the season if Bryant remains out against Iowa in Week 10.
