The University of Maryland’s football team has agreed to play Clemson at Memorial Stadium on Nov. 15, and games against Penn State and Clemson are also tentatively planned here through 1989.

“Clemson next year is definite. The rest of it is premature at this point,” Dick Dull, athletic director at Maryland, said Tuesday from the school’s College Park campus.

Dull said the university was working on a five-year commitment for playing games at Memorial Stadium, home of the Baltimore Orioles and former home of the Colts, now of Indianapolis.

Maryland has played two games at Memorial Stadium in the past two years and both drew well.

Attendance was 60,575 at the Terps’ game here against Clemson in 1984, the first time Maryland had played in Baltimore since 1959. Last November, 62,350 watched the Maryland-Miami game.
