Penn State has no time to dwell on its close loss to Maryland on Sunday night.
The defeat was heartbreaking for the Nittany Lions, who were in control for most of the game, but they’ll have to quickly put it behind them. They have another tough task ahead of them in Johns Hopkins.
The Blue Jays are ranked fourth in the Maverik Media Poll , making this the second straight game that Penn State faces a top-five opponent. This alone would be a difficult situation, but now the Nittany Lions have to prepare for this game on a short week.
