Hell, College Park is inside the Beltway. It has a Metro stop. It's not 30 minutes away... it is IN DC for all intents and purposes.
you are killing Baloo think in DC terms 10 miles in DC traffic = 30+mins

DC is a transient town with a lot of transplants. And they carry with them their allegiances to their alma maters. And a lot of those alma mater are Big Ten schools. ACC fans, by and large, don't care about football. But now, UMD's ratings are going to go up because Big Ten fans DO care and they want to watch their team. Where do people think Penn St and Ohio St grads go?
BINGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Mizzou fan could not grasp this. Lots of people here just do not understand the DC area college sports scene.

DC is a winner's town. If Maryland football started winning, they'd have packed houses every weekend. It's just that support is soft. Look at G'town hoops. They used to sell out the Cap Center every night. Then they started to suck, and people stopped going. It's not like, say, Penn St where people will go no matter what.
