During the M-A-R-Y-L-A-N-D section of the victory song, Terrapins fans show their clenched fists, then un-clench them for unity. The motion resembles someone climbing a ladder.

===Other Songs===
Other official school songs include the school's Alma Mater and Fight Song. Each of these are played at every home football game during the pregame festivities. The theme song to the [[1980s]] cartoon [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]] has been adopted as an unofficial school song. Fans generally shout the "Turtle Power" and "Heroes in a half-shell" lyrics in the chorus. In basketball competitions, when Maryland is all but assured of a win, an impromptu version of Steam's "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him) Goodbye" is performed to wish the competitor a farewell and good luck in future games. This may be accompanied by a rousing chant of "o-ver-ra-ted", if in fact the quality of the visiting team's play is not up to the standards of their current ranking.

===Beanies===
Between the years of 1920 - 1960, freshman students were mandated to wear beanies all over campus, including sporting events. These were known as "rat caps" for guys and "rabbit caps" for gals. A few students keep this tradition alive even today.

===School Colors===
The school's colors are red, white, black, and gold, as these are the colors on the Maryland state [[flag]]. As can be seen from the lyrics of the victory song, originally the school's colors were simply black and gold. These colors were adopted in the [[1920s]]. Before that time, Terrapin athletic uniforms were usually [[gray]] or [[maroon]]. In [[1942]], when football coach [[Clark Shaugnessy]] decided that the school colors should be primarily red and white. Since then, this has been true, with black and gold usually being somehow incorporated into the uniform.

==="Hey, You Suck!"===
A popular saying among the students at Maryland, and one that has created much embarrassment for the university is a simple "Hey, You Suck!" directed at opponents. Students have incorporated the phrase into [[Gary Glitter]]'s popular sports anthem "[[Rock and Roll (Gary Glitter song)|Rock and Roll Part Two]]" (often referred to as the "Hey Song"), leading the school to cease playing the song. They have also incorporated it into the traditional "Na-na-na Na Hey Hey Goodbye" song uttered by sports fans following a foul-out of an opposing basketball player. Currently at basketball games immediately prior to tipoff, and at football games following a Terrapins touchdown, the student section begins performing an [[acapella]] version of "Rock and Roll Part Two", as the band is not allowed to play it.

===Move those Chains===
During a football contest, when the Terps achieve a first down, the students advise the sideline chain crew to "move the chains" by hollering and pointing toward the first down.

===Midnight Madness===
Midnight Madness was originally started by Maryland Head Coach [[Lefty Driesell]] in 1970. Midnight Madness is held at the earliest time the Men's Basketball Team can practice, which used to be midnight on the first day of practice. Students would attend the practice and over the years it has evolved into a circus-like atmosphere, including light shows, magic shows, the mascot trampoline challenge, skits, food, beverage, and other fanfare.

Recently, Maryland and some other schools have moved the start of Midnight Madness to earlier in the day - generally around 7 o'clock - with permission of the NCAA, of course. This is to encourage more families and fans who aren't even students to attend the event. As a result of this change, Midnight Madness has been rebranded as "Maryland Madness."

=== Free Throw Wave ===
Students hold their arms above their heads when players are shooting free throws during a basketball contest. When the home team is shooting a free throw, and successfully completes the task, the students will drop their arms to their side, in addition to uttering a "whoomp" sound. When the opposing team is at the line, the students wave their arms and hands in tandem with the shot, to confuse the shooter...

=== One finger "bandit" ===
Accompanying the free throw wave during a home team attempt, the UMD student will hold up one finger (typically the pointer) to signify the one point that is achieved during a successful free throw event. The students chant "uumph" as the free-throw is successful to compliment the "bandit".

===The Wave===
During times of extreme excitement during a sporting event, the fans will conduct a human "wave" that engulfs the stadium. The wave involves fans standing up in tandem in a particular section. As that section starts to sit down, the adjoining section begins to rise, simulating a water-wave. This action continues across the stadium as the frenzy rises. A significant amount of hollaring accompanies the wave.

===Newspaper Shaking===
Maryland students attempt to read the newspaper as the opposing team is being introduced. They shake the paper as they read. When the opposing team's introductions are finished, the students crumple up the paper into a ball and throw it into the air. Magazines may also be substituted.

Also while the students are attempting to read their newspapers, it is a common practice for them to yell "sucks!" after each name of the opposing team and coaching staff is read, to voice their displeasure of an uncomfortable presence in the area.

For example:
"(PA announcer) The head coach of the Blue Devils is Mike Krzyzewski. (Students will articulate) 'Sucks!'" It is timed such that it is heard continuously.

===The Crew===
The Crew is an exceptionally dedicated group of Men's Soccer fans. They generally sit behind the goal the opposing team is defending and berate the opposing goalie, referring to him by name. Members of the Crew often travel to away games to continue to support their Terps. The Crew also organize activities to join the soccer environment.

===Other Traditions===
At football games, Terp fans also shake their keys in addition to the newspapers to signify urgency ("Key" Plays). This has been done by other groups of fans throughout the country. Also, at the beginning of each men's basketball game, Maryland Coach [[Gary Williams]] pumps his fist to signify a good game.
"F Duke" - For Duke basketball games, students will typically forego the traditional Maryland garb for apparel that shows displeasure towards the Blue Devils. This typically includes shirts that say "F*** Duke" or "Duck Fook", in addition to delivering a verbal barrage.

The Maryland Terrapins, most commonly referred to as the Terps, represent the University of Maryland, College Park in NCAA sports. The University of Maryland is an NCAA Division I-A school that belongs to the Atlantic Coast Conference. Their mascot is Testudo the Turtle, who was born in 1932, when Dr. Curley Byrd suggested that the school's mascot should be the diamondback terrapin. Their official colors are red, white, black, and gold.

History

The University of Maryland, College Park was established in 1856, but joined the ACC in 1953. Between 1921 and 1953, the Terps were part of the Southern Conference, and seceded with six other SoCon schools to form the ACC.

Traditions

The University of Maryland has a number of traditions associated with the school's athletics programs. Traditionally, Maryland athletics have put the emphasis on fair play and competition over the outcome of a particular contest.


The Marylaerps score, regardless if there is a team victory at the end of the competition, celebratingfuckurmomnight the immediate victory of accomplishment. Ironically, the "Victory" song is played even after defeat. The lyrics are as follows:

Maryland we're all behind you, Raise high the black and gold. For there is nothing half so glorious, As to see our team victorious. We've got the steam boys, We've got the team boys, So keep on fighting, don't give in! M-A-R-Y-L-A-N-D Maryland will win fight fight During the M-A-R-Y-L-A-N-D section of the victory song, Terrapins fans show their clenched fists, then un-clench them for unity. The motion resembles someone climbing a ladder.

Other Songs

Other official school songs include the school's Alma Mater and Fight Song. Each of these are played at every home football game during the pregame festivities. The theme song to the 1980s cartoon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has been adopted as an unofficial school song. Fans generally shout the "Turtle Power" and "Heroes in a half-shell" lyrics in the chorus. In basketball competitions, when Maryland is all but assured of a win, an impromptu version of Steam's "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him) Goodbye" is performed to wish the competitor a farewell and good luck in future games. This may be accompanied by a rousing chant of "o-ver-ra-ted", if in fact the quality of the visiting team's play is not up to the standards of their current ranking.

Beanies

Between the years of 1920 - 1960, freshman students were mandated to wear beanies all over campus, including sporting events. These were known as "rat caps" for guys and "rabbit caps" for gals. A few students keep this tradition alive even today.

School Colors

The school's colors are red, white, black, and gold, as these are the colors on the Maryland state flag. As can be seen from the lyrics of the victory song, originally the school's colors were simply black and gold. These colors were adopted in the 1920s. Before that time, Terrapin athletic uniforms were usually gray or maroon. In 1942, when football coach Clark Shaugnessy decided that the school colors should be primarily red and white. Since then, this has been true, with black and gold usually being somehow incorporated into the uniform.

"Hey, You Suck!"

A popular saying among the students at Maryland, and one that has created much embarrassment for the university is a simple "Hey, You Suck!" directed at opponents. Students have incorporated the phrase into Gary Glitter's popular sports anthem "Rock and Roll Part Two" (often referred to as the "Hey Song"), leading the school to cease playing the song. They have also incorporated it into the traditional "Na-na-na Na Hey Hey Goodbye" song uttered by sports fans following a foul-out of an opposing basketball player. Currently at basketball games immediately prior to tipoff, and at football games following a Terrapins touchdown, the student section begins performing an acapella version of "Rock and Roll Part Two", as the band is not allowed to play it.

Move those Chains

During a football contest, when the Terps achieve a first down, the students advise the sideline chain crew to "move the chains" by hollering and pointing toward the first down.

Midnight Madness

Midnight Madness was originally started by Maryland Head Coach Lefty Driesell in 1970. Midnight Madness is held at the earliest time the Men's Basketball Team can practice, which used to be midnight on the first day of practice. Students would attend the practice and over the years it has evolved into a circus-like atmosphere, including light shows, magic shows, the mascot trampoline challenge, skits, food, beverage, and other fanfare.

Recently, Maryland and some other schools have moved the start of Midnight Madness to earlier in the day - generally around 7 o'clock - with permission of the NCAA, of course. This is to encourage more families and fans who aren't even students to attend the event. As a result of this change, Midnight Madness has been rebranded as "Maryland Madness."

Free Throw Wave

Students hold their arms above their heads when players are shooting free throws during a basketball contest. When the home team is shooting a free throw, and successfully completes the task, the students will drop their arms to their side, in addition to uttering a "whoomp" sound. When the opposing team is at the line, the students wave their arms and hands in tandem with the shot, to confuse the shooter...

One finger "bandit"

Accompanying the free throw wave during a home team attempt, the UMD student will hold up one finger (typically the pointer) to signify the one point that is achieved during a successful free throw event. The students chant "uumph" as the free-throw is successful to compliment the "bandit".

The Wave

During times of extreme excitement during a sporting event, the fans will conduct a human "wave" that engulfs the stadium. The wave involves fans standing up in tandem in a particular section. As that section starts to sit down, the adjoining section begins to rise, simulating a water-wave. This action continues across the stadium as the frenzy rises. A significant amount of hollaring accompanies the wave.

Newspaper Shaking

Maryland students attempt to read the newspaper as the opposing team is being introduced. They shake the paper as they read. When the opposing team's introductions are finished, the students crumple up the paper into a ball and throw it into the air. Magazines may also be substituted.

Also while the students are attempting to read their newspapers, it is a common practice for them to yell "sucks!" after each name of the opposing team and coaching staff is read, to voice their displeasure of an uncomfortable presence in the area.

For example: "(PA announcer) The head coach of the Blue Devils is Mike Krzyzewski. (Students will articulate) 'Sucks!'" It is timed such that it is heard continuously.

The Crew

The Crew is an exceptionally dedicated group of Men's Soccer fans. They generally sit behind the goal the opposing team is defending and berate the opposing goalie, referring to him by name. Members of the Crew often travel to away games to continue to support their Terps. The Crew also organize activities to join the soccer environment.

Other Traditions

At football games, Terp fans also shake their keys in addition to the newspapers to signify urgency ("Key" Plays). This has been done by other groups of fans throughout the country. Also, at the beginning of each men's basketball game, Maryland Coach Gary Williams pumps his fist to signify a good game. "F Duke" - For Duke basketball games, students will typically forego the traditional Maryland garb for apparel that shows displeasure towards the Blue Devils. This typically includes shirts that say "F*** Duke" or "Duck Fook", in addition to delivering a verbal barrage.

Incidents

In the past decade, the University of Maryland experienced a number of on-and-off the field incidents including rioting, harassment of opposing players by the student population, and the destruction of property on campus. The incidents have caused negative publicity for the university. Most eggregious were the events that occurred after sporting contests regardless of a win or loss.

That sentiment has rung true where security officers have quelled sports-related rioting at least three times in as many years in the early 2000s. Rioting [at UMD] has become such a part of fandom that more than 1,000 freshmen and sophomores last year swarmed at their first opportunity to damage property after a major basketball loss in 2000. [1]

Following a win versus hated Duke, at least 15 people were arrested after a crowd of about 3,000 kids tramped down Route 1, setting fires and throwing trash. Rioting got so bad in 2002 that Maryland created a rule that allows for some students to be expelled if they commit extreme acts of vandalism and violence after the games. [2]

Prompted by a report from the NCAA's Sportsmanship and Fan Behavior Summit in 2003 and reports in 2004, UMD dispatches ushers at games to trade T-shirts with students who sport clothes with profane messages, and the band is forbidden to play Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll Part Two", which fans tend to lace with the phrase "You Suck!". Additional restrictions and penalties have been proposed due fans' extreme profanity towards opposing players[3][4] Additionally, fans have taken their behavior to such an extreme that they made public the cell phone and parents phone number of an opposing player, to which UMD students had given so many harassing calls, the numbers needed to be changed.[5]

The unruly behavior is not limited to men's athletics. University of Maryland students and fans clashed with police in riot gear following the school's victory in the women's basketball national title game in April 2006, echoing unruly celebrations associated with the men's team in recent years.[6]

Rivalries

While the Terps do not have a generally recognized school rival overall, they do share a select history both within the ACC and beyond the conference.

Duke - Basketball

The Maryland-Duke rivalry in men's basketball has taken on interest in recent years. Some trace the origins of the rivalry to a game played at Cameron Indoor Stadium on February 9, 2000, in which Maryland, led by Juan Dixon's 31 points, upset then second-ranked Duke, ending the Blue Devils' streaks of 31 consecutive ACC victories and 46 consecutive home victories. The two teams would go on to meet in the finals of the ACC tournament, where Duke would prevail, taking two out of three meetings that season. (Many Duke fans consider the Maryland rivalry to be one of the two intense rivalries they have, the other being the historic University of North Carolina rivalry.) Both teams entered the following season among the preseason top 10, and met in four highly-contested games:

January 27, 2001 -- #2 Duke 98, #8 Maryland 96 (OT)
Maryland held a 10-point lead with 54 seconds left, only see to starting point guard Steve Blake collect his fifth foul, leaving the Terps without a true point guard on the floor. Duke guard Jason Williams scored a pair of three-pointers in the span of thirteen seconds to lead a comeback. Maryland was unable to capitalize on opportunities to win the game in regulation, and eventually succumbed to the Devils in the extended period, as Shane Battier blocked Juan Dixon's shot attempt in the closing seconds. Maryland proceeded to lose four out of five games, which included a home loss to last-place Florida State.
February 27, 2001 -- #16 Maryland 91, #2 Duke 80
Going into the rematch with Duke, Maryland had begun a midseason turnaround, gaining victories against Wake Forest, nationally-ranked Oklahoma, and North Carolina State. Maryland overcame an eight-point halftime deficit and, with another 30-plus point performance from Juan Dixon, defeated the Blue Devils on Senior Night.
March 10, 2001 -- #3 Duke 84, #11 Maryland 82
In the second game of the ACC Tournament semifinals, both teams went on runs. Late in the game, Maryland mounted a comeback, as a Steve Blake three-pointer tied the game at 82 with 8 seconds left. Nate James' hustle play resulted in the game-winning tip-in for the Blue Devils. As the teams exchanged pleasantries at the game's conclusion, each side was heard to tell the other, "See you in Minneapolis," the site of that year's Final Four.
March 31, 2001 -- #1 Duke 95, #3 Maryland 84
Maryland had capped a mid-season turnaround with the school's first ever Final Four appearance, and found the premonition made in the conference tournament had come to pass. Maryland performed well in the first half, leading by as many as 22. Eventual national-champion Duke would cut the lead in half by the end of the first twenty minutes, going on to win the game by 11, completing the largest comeback in NCAA tournament history. This game and Duke's two other wins in the series that season were all considered "Instant Classics" by ESPN, much to Maryland's consternation.

The two teams entered the 2001-02 season among the national championship favorites. They met twice during the regular season: a 21-point Duke victory in Durham, and a 14-point Maryland victory in top-ranked Duke's final visit to Cole Field House. The College Park matchup is noted for a memorable play before halftime, as Jason Williams, attempting to set up Duke's last shot, turned his eyes towards Coach K for instruction. As he did, Steve Blake stole the ball from him and scored on a lay-up, giving Maryland an eight-point lead and momentum. In the NCAA's, Duke would be upset in the Sweet Sixteen by fifth-seeded Indiana; Maryland would go on to win the title, defeating that very same Indiana team in the championship game.

On January 18, 2003, Duke, relying heavily on a highly-touted freshman class, came to the newly-opened Comcast Center undefeated and top-ranked. Maryland, which was able to start five seniors, overcame a halftime deficit and won by 15 in a manner reminiscient of the teams' previous meeting. Duke would go on to win the rematch a month later, and the following season, took the regular-season series. The home game of the series was notorious for ESPN microphones picking up the Terps student section chanting "Fuck you, JJ!" at Blue Devil point guard JJ Redick as he attempted two late free throws, which caused the ACC to fine Maryland an undisclosed sum of money and reprimand the administration, asking them to better control their students.

Maryland ended the 2003-04 regular season with a 7-9 conference record. With wins against Wisconsin, top-ranked Florida, North Carolina, and North Carolina State, Maryland entered the ACC tournament as a probable team to make the NCAAs. Sixth-seeded Maryland upset third-seeded Wake Forest and second-seeded North Carolina State to advance to final game against top-seeded Duke. Maryland led for much of the first half, while Duke made a run in the second, leading by 12 with less than five minutes left in regulation. Maryland, buoyed by the play of John Gilchrist, made a series of plays down the stretch to tie the game at 77 at the end of regulation. With many on Duke's team, including Shelden Williams, in foul trouble or disqualified, Maryland went on to outscore Duke 18-10 in overtime, resulting in a 95-87 victory and the school's first ACC tournament title in 20 years.

In the 2004-05 season, Maryland swept the Blue Devils, becoming the first conference team to do so since Wake Forest did nearly a decade earlier. They also became the first school to win three straight games against Duke since Michigan accomplished the feat in 1995, 1996, and 1997. The victories over Duke were negated, however, by losses to supposedly weaker conference foes like Miami, North Carolina State, and Clemson, who defeated the Terrapins three times during the season. Maryland was relegated to the NIT; Duke won the conference tournament, earned a one-seed, and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen for the eighth consecutive year.

Duke was a national championship favorite during the 2005-06 season, and was able to sweep a Maryland team rife with internal issues and underachieving players. Maryland, despite an 8-8 record, went back to the NIT and lost in the first round; Duke earned another conference title, another one-seed, and another trip to the Sweet Sixteen.

As of March 2007, Duke holds a 101-60 lead in the all-time series. Since the 1999-00 season, however, Duke holds an 11-9 advantage. Maryland won both of its games against Duke in 2007, completing its second sweep of Duke in 3 years. The game is the source of frenzied fan interest in College Park and routinely draws large television audiences.

Because of the intense nature of the rivalry in Men's Basketball, dislike between the schools has spilled over to other sports, notably men's soccer and women's basketball.

Penn State - Football

The series between the Terrapins and Nittany Lions has been dominated by Penn State University. The lone Maryland win in the modern era came in 1961. In recent years, Penn State has drawn the ire of Maryland fans by successfully recruiting many greater Washington, D.C., area players, an area that had previously been successful for Maryland. Most notably, Forestville, Maryland high school football standout Antonio Logan-El chose the Lions over the Terrapins on live television at the ESPN Zone in Baltimore, MD in 2006.

Virginia - Football

The Terrapins and Cavaliers have met in football since 1913, but have met annually since 1957 although Virginia joined the Atlantic Coast Conference in 1954. The series has included a stretch from 1969 through 1987 when the Terps defeated the Cavaliers, including a conference championship clinching win in 1984 at Charlottesville. Virginia would turn the tables on the Terps from 1988 through 2000, with the exception of Maryland winning in 1990 in Charlottesville and 1991 in College Park. The most heartbreaking game in the series for the Terps came in the final game of the 1999 season where the Terps were leading 30-27 with less than 30 seconds remaining in regulation where they gave up a late touchdown to the Cavaliers, thus losing by 4 points, 34-30, even though LaMont Jordan ran for a single-game school record 306 yards, which still stands to this day. That loss by the Terps denied them a possible bowl invitation and a winning season.

The recent history of the series had both teams alternating wins at their home field since 2001 (Maryland winning in 2001, 2003 and 2005, Virginia winning in 2002 and 2004). As of October 2006, Maryland has the lead in the overall series, 41-28-2.

West Virginia - Football

Maryland and West Virginia share a competitive rivalry in football. The series is the longest current continuous non-conference series for either school, the two teams having met each year since 1980. As of October 2006, the series stands at 22-21-2 in favor of West Virginia. After the Terps won four straight against West Virginia from 2001-2004 (including the 2004 Gator Bowl), the Mountaineers have bounced back, winning the last three. The series will take a brief hiatus in 2008 and 2009 as Maryland begins a home-and-home series with California. The series is rumored to resume in 2010.

Johns Hopkins - Lacrosse

Johns Hopkins University and the Terps have a long-standing rivalry in lacrosse. Both teams are located in the state of Maryland, which geographically categorizes JHU as a "regional" rival.

ACC in General

To the students, every school in the ACC is designated a competitive match, considering Maryland has no true rival. Due to the frequency (mostly round-robin format) in which the teams play in a variety of sports, there is some bad blood from individuals toward every other ACC school.
