Terps/Hoyas should be yearly meeting

It is not too often I get to agree with a national media writer, but SI's Seth Davis is absolutely right that Maryland and Georgetown should play each other once a year in basketball. Two strong programs from two of the strongest Division I conferences playing for bragging rights in each others backyard. It is a perfect fit.

Apparently, this rivalry went south after legendary coaches Lefty Driesell and John Thompson had a tiff back in the eightes. They have played twice since then, but those two games were important moments:

• 1993's game was a national ESPN game, a win for the Terps that brought the program national notice coming out of the probation years, and started the Terps on their return to the tournament.
• 2001's meeting in Boise in the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament was part of the Terps march to their first ever Final Four appearance.

At this point, bygones need to be bygones. Maryland and Georgetown are top tier programs, and the Terps have no problems playing another top local program in George Washington. This game needs to happen.
