No, really, what is UP with Maryland? Are they simply a team who plays down to the competition? Or are they an example of a team that is mentally tough in crunch time?

No doubt, there was a lot of emotion flying all over the court yesterday, what with it being Senior night and Brenda making an appearance a week after the Turtle-Twins were born... but does that explain why they were, yet again, taken to overtime?

Florida State (16-11, 6-6) had the honors. Again, a late run by the Terps and they pulled away in overtime, winning 92-84 and sending the crowd of 16,000-plus home happy. Sorta: Maryland shot 56% and had a huge rebounding advantage (48-29), but they also 23 turnovers to FSU's 7 and 14 assists on 30 baskets.

Maryland's fourth overtime game in its last eight gave the team its first undefeated season at home since the 1988-89 season and its fifth perfect home record in school history.
