No statistical surprises today.
Jordan Williams was plus-12 in Maryland's 87-80 defeat of N.C. State.
Terrell Stoglin was plus-8.
The two combined for 51 points, which means the plus-minus backs up the intuitive insight that both were vital to Maryland.
More after the jump.
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. --- Pe'Shon Howard was plus-5 in a four-point loss to Boston College.
Rather oddly, Terrell Stoglin was minus-6.
One of those made sense, given how the two played. One of them didn't.
As for guys who didn't play particularly well, you can interpret the chart after the jump.
Maryland defeated Longwood by 54.
It had seven players record plus-minus margins of at least plus-20.
That, of course, was to be expected in a 106-52 defeat.
The most notable number? Sean Mosley collecting a plus-43.
That's not a typo.
More after the jump.
Maryland's 80-62 loss to Duke --- its largest margin of defeat ever in Comcast Center, breaking a record set a mere 13 days earlier --- had a predictable effect on the Terrapins' individual plus-minus.
No players had plus totals (though Hauk Palsson and Pe'Shon Howard had positive totals in the first half) as Maryland fell to 14-8 overall and 4-4 in conference play.
More after the jump.
CHARLOTTESVILLE --- Maryland held a 24-point advantage in the 21 minutes Pe'Shon Howard was on the floor on Thursday.
It had an even split without him.
That was by far the most interesting bit of data stemming from Maryland's substitution patterns in a 66-42 defeat of Virginia at John Paul Jones Arena.
More after the jump.
Pe'Shon Howard was plus-14, a notable number during a two-point game.
But beyond that, the plus-minus chart isn't too interesting --- and was skewed considerably by strategy.
More after the jump.
The numbers from Maryland's 74-57 loss to Virginia Tech are no prettier than the actual happenings on the floor.
Let's get to the breakdown:

Of note ...
* It was the second straight DNP for Berend Weijs, who had played in every game before Saturday.
* Sean Mosley produced the worst individual single-game plus-minus for a Maryland player this season; Cliff Tucker was minus-19 against Villanova, and James Padgett was minus-18 against Pittsburgh.
* Mychal Parker logged eight decent minutes in the setback; Maryland played Virginia Tech even when he was on the floor. More of note, it was the first time he played in a loss this season.
* Maryland's starters accounted for minus-79 in 139 minutes; the bench was minus-6 in 62 minutes. Yes, Maryland is credited with 201 minutes in the box score. It's too late for me to quibble.
PHILADELPHIA --- In Maryland's come-from-ahead loss to Villanova, bad things happened when Adrian Bowie wasn't on the floor.
That is naturally an oversimplification of the Terrapins' 74-66 setback. The truth is, it couldn't shoot for seven minutes and couldn't rebound in the second half. That explained the loss to the Wildcats.
But from an individual perspective, here's the statistical rundown ...

Not a whole lot surprising here, really, which is fitting considering how the game played out.

As requested (and planned), the ACC columns get unveiled after Maryland's second league game.
An obvious (but worthwhile) observation on Jordan Williams: His number in this category is probably the most likely to stick close to Maryland's overall margin in close games or against serious competition. The reason is simple: He'll be on the floor more than anyone.
He was +1 when Maryland beat College of Charleston by a point.
He was -5 in a four-point loss to Illinois.
He was +21 in 23-point rout at Penn State.
He was -4 as Maryland fell by three to Temple.
He was -2 in a four-point defeat against Boston College.
So that actually makes -11 in a seven-point loss --- hardly an out-of-the-ordinary number --- against Duke a slightly off-the-mark figure. It also speaks to how well Maryland treaded water in the brief times Williams went to the bench at Cameron.
