Along with other teams in the Big Ten conference, fans have learned about the Maryland 2024 football schedule. The Big Ten conference revealed how teams in the conference will be pairing up against each other in the 2024 and 2025 season. Another part of the revelation is the introduction of USC and UCLA as new members of the conference starting in 2024.
