Maryland football is hoping to improve on its 2014 third-place finish in the Big Ten East by getting more physical this fall.

Could the Terrapins' uniforms help them be harder to bring down, too?

They may be counting on that, too.

The school unveiled new uniforms from Under Armour describing the uniforms as "stronger, lighter and virtually ungrabbable."

What makes them such? That is not spelled out, but the news release states the "ArmourGrid technology" was "inspired by the engineering in reinforced concrete."

Every little bit helps when it comes to building a winning football program.
