Maryland visits Henry Ford Museum before playing in Detroit
Not all, but most bowl teams have to travel in order to play in their postseason game.
For Maryland, the team has traveled to Detroit, Mich. for its Quick Lane Bowl matchup against Boston College on Dec. 26. Before focusing completely on the Eagles, the Terrapins made a quick detour to the Henry Ford Museum in a Detroit suburb called Dearborn.
