Maryland will not allow you to take Itemized Deductions on the state if you took the Standard Deduction on the Federal. If your Itemized Deductions are slightly less than the Standard Deduction, that would account for the large change on your Maryland return if you choose to take Itemized Deductions for both Federal and State.
