No. 23 Maine (5-3, 4-1 Colonial Athletic Association) @ No. 15 Towson (6-2, 4-1)

When: 4 p.m. Site: Johnny Unitas Stadium TV: College Sports Live/CBS Digital Radio: CBS Sports Radio 1300 AM Series: Maine leads, 7-6 What’s at stake: Not only did Saturday’s 40-36 loss at Delaware end a five-game winning streak, but it also dropped Towson from No. 10 to No. 15 in the most recent STATS Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) poll. And now the Tigers find themselves in a four-way tie atop the CAA with No. 3 James Madison, No. 13 Delaware and Maine, today’s opponent. The good news for Towson is that it is undefeated in three games at home, while the Black Bears are 2-3 away from the friendly confines of The Pine Tree State. The two sides last met on Nov. 7, 2015, when the Tigers escaped Alfond Stadium in Orono, Maine, with a 10-7 decision. Key matchup: Towson ranks in the middle of the pack in the CAA in sacks allowed with 17 and kept redshirt junior quarterback Tom Flacco clean against the Blue Hens. A similar outcome may be much more difficult against a Maine pass rush that leads the conference in sacks with 33. Senior linebacker Sterling Sheffield also leads the league in sacks with 8½, sophomore linebacker Deshawn Stevens ranks second with seven, and junior defensive lineman Kayon Whitaker is tied for seventh with 5½. Player to watch: Tigers redshirt junior running back Shane Simpson leads all FCS players in all-purpose yards with 189.9 per game. Simpson, who has scored one touchdown in each of the team’s eight games, has averaged 61.0 rushing yards, 26.5 receiving yards, 89.9 kick return yards and 12.5 punt return yards.
