Students sprint down Capital One Field at Maryland Stadium with state and Terps flags to pump up the crowd at the start of Saturday's Homecoming game against Rutgers, which the Terps won decisively, 34-7.

Between Friday’s Terp Carnival, Saturday’s tailgates and a Big Ten thumping of Rutgers, Homecoming Weekend 2018 was a spirit-filled success. Our photographers covered all the action.
