Leake Leads Terps to 63-33 Drubbing of Illinois
10/27/2018 5:34:00 PM | Football
Leake is the first Maryland player to score four TDs in a game since D.J. Adams in the 2010 Military Bowl. Leake, a sophomore, finished with 140 yards rushing, including scores of 64, 27 and 43 yards.
The victory left the Terrapins (5-3, 3-2 Big Ten) one win short of becoming bowl eligible.
Reggie Corbin ran for 155 yards and a touchdown for the Fighting Illini (3-5, 1-4). Illinois had yielded 158 points during a three-game skid, and its streak of forcing a turnover in 21 consecutive games came to an end.
Leake's kickoff return and 64-yard run, along with two touchdown passes by Hill, provided Maryland with a 28-9 halftime lead. The Terrapins tacked on three touchdowns in the third quarter, including a 27-yard run by Leake and Hill's third touchdown pass.
Hill was removed from the game late in the third quarter with the score 49-19. He went 11 for 19 for a career-high 265 yards, and his three TD passes tied a career best.
Playing Illinois for the first time, Maryland set a school record for most points in a Big Ten game since joining the conference. The Terps finished with 712 yards in offense.
