Taulia Tagovailoa threw for 394 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for two more scores to lead Maryland to a wild 45-44 Big Ten Conference win over Minnesota Friday night at Maryland Stadium.

The sophomore quarterback was 26-of-35 passing, and his 2-yard run in the first overtime put the Terrapins (1-1, 1-1), who overcame a 17-point second-half deficit, ahead 45-38. Minnesota (0-2, 0-2) answered with Seth Green's 2-yard run but kicker Brock Walker pushed the extra point wide right to allow Maryland to snap an eight-game losing streak dating to last season.

Baltimore native Mohamed Ibrahim had career highs of 41 rushing attempts for 207 yards and he tied the school record with four touchdowns in a game. He looked like the game's big hero as he helped Minnesota rally from two touchdowns behind in the first half.

The two teams combined for 1,126 total yards, 675 by the Terrapins, including a career-high 221 yards rushing from redshirt senior Jake Funk on 21 rushes. Funk missed all of last season with a torn ACL. His 19-yard scoring run with just 3:38 to play capped the Terrapins' improbable comeback after Minnesota scored 31 unanswered points.

The Gophers trailed 21-7 following Tagovailoa's 76-yard touchdown pass to Jeshuan Jones at 2:24 of the first quarter, but Minnesota rattled off the next 21 points to lead 28-21 at the half, Ibrahim slamming in from one yard at 2:46 to provide that margin. It was 21-14 when defensive tackle DeAngelo Carter intercepted a deflected pass to set up Ibrahim's third short scoring run.

For the second straight game, Maryland drove for a score on the opening drive, this time Tagovailoa cashing in on an 8-yard pass to Funk for a 7-0 lead at 10:07, the culmination of an 11-play march. Tagovailoa escaped trouble in the backfield and dashed 39 yards for another score on the next possession. The sophomore quarterback rushed for 59 yards in addition to becoming Maryland's first 300-yard passer in a game since 2013.

It's the beginning of a big weeked for the Taovailoas with older brother Tua scheduled to make his first NFL start Sunday for the Miami Dolphins.

Tanner Morgan was an efficient 10-of-15 for 189 yards for Minnesota, including a 39-yard touchdown to Chris Autman-Bell to make it 35-21 at 11:54 of the third period.

Dontay Demus was Tagovailoa's top target with seven receptions for 101 yards, including a 25-yard score at 13:14 of the fourth quarter to make it 38-28, and start the comeback, the third largest in the fourth quarter (17 points) in the Big Ten since 2004.

Maryland travels to Penn State next Saturday, looking to snap a five-game losing streak to their nearest Big Ten brethren. Minnesota is at Illinois before the Gophers host back-to-back home contest against
