Edwards throws for 311 yards and two touchdowns in Maryland's 50-7 rout of UConn

COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- , Billy Edwards Jr . threw two touchdown passes to Tai Felton , and Maryland's defense was as good as advertised in a 50-7 victory over UConn in a season opener on Saturday. The big question facing the Terrapins this season is how they'll do without Taulia Tagovailoa, who brought them some rare stability at quarterback for the last four years. Edwards, who guided Maryland to a win over Auburn in the Music City Bowl last season, started the game and completed his first seven passes. He went 20 of 27 for 311 yards and two TDs. “The one thing that really jumped out to me about Billy throughout camp, that I think Ray Charles could see today, you never knew which group he played with,” Maryland coach Mike Locksley said.
