It's 50-13. The announcers are playing up the beef they have about their bowl spot. Maryland does have a beef but the announcers have mentioned "a team like NC State that finished below Maryland and lost to them" in terms of teams that got an unjustifiably better bowl.
I admit that Maryland got the short end of the stick a bit. But their fans don't travel well. The fact that they finished ahead of State was a tiebreaker. They had the same record. State also lost a close game. It's not like State was 7-5 or something and lost by 40 to Maryland. Maryland did deserve a better bowl, but State handled the Big East co-champions pretty easily last night, so they too made the statement that they needed to make.
In terms of Maryland taking out their frustrations on the other team, it couldn't happen to a nicer team than ECU (well except for Notre Dame).
