Ryland is on the watch list for the Lou Groza Award, and was Second-Team All-B1G on the Lindy’s Sports Preseason team. Pro Football Focus, Athlon Sports, and Phil Steele also had him on their preseason teams.

Even if Maryland ends up not being able to pull off the upset, Ryland’s streak is still impressive.

Ryland and Maryland are giving Michigan a great game so far on FOX at the moment.
