Scott Milanovich threw for 175 yards and two touchdowns Monday, leading Blue to a 26-7 victory over Gray in the Blue-Gray all-star game.

Milanovich, the Maryland quarterback who was suspended for four games this season for betting on college sports, found West Virginia tight end Lovett Purnell for a 43-yard touchdown in the second quarter, then connected for 36 yards to West Virginia’s Kantroy Barber to give Blue a 19-7 lead in the third.

Purnell also caught a 5-yard TD pass from Nevada’s Mike Maxwell in the first quarter for Blue’s first touchdown. Purnell caught four passes for 90 yards.

Steve Taneyhill of South Carolina was 9 of 19 for 103 yards.

Milanovich, who would have left school had his initial eight-game suspension not been reduced to four, showed poise in the pocket and good zip on his passes as NFL scouts watched from the stands. He completed 9 of 20 passes.

On Blue’s first drive of the second quarter, Milanovich floated a beautifully thrown spiral toward the sideline for 29 yards to Fresno State’s Jahine Arnold. That set up the long TD pass to Purnell, a bullet up the middle on an out-and-up pattern.

Late in the third, Milanovich stepped around several rushers and found Maryland teammate Jermaine Lewis, setting up he 36-yard scoring pass to Barber.
