 After losses to Penn State and Syracuse, Pastrana led the underdog Maryland team to a surprising three-game winning streak over Duke, West Virginia, and South Carolina, which improbably placed the Terrapins atop the Atlantic Coast Conference and into the bowl game picture.Maryland, however, lost its final four games of the season to finish 4–6 and 3–3 in the ACC.In the penultimate game against Virginia, Pastrana broke the ACC record with his 13th and 14th touchdown passes of the season.
