Penn State was not shy about tacking on the points late in their blowout victory over Maryland. The Nittany Lions thrashed Maryland 44-7, including a touchdown at the very end of the game. That didn’t sit well with Terps head coach Mike Locksley, and the postgame handshake between he and James Franklin was a little bit awkward, to say the least.

Following the game, Locksley said of the interaction. “Bullshit. That’s what it was. I respect the game. I’ve got a lot of respect for James, his program. I think it was bullshit.”
