Thanks to a couple of Maryland penalties their promising drive stalled and let to a missed FG.

Nice drive to start 2nd half, aided by big penalty on Maryland. Great TD pass to Bell.

11 passes on the night. Ball control can keep the d off the field

Bateman is a casualty with 2 receptions so far

Obviously posted before a 17-0 run in the 4th to tie the game.

What a strange game. Maryland owns the 4th qtr. They then let time run out when they could've thrown a Hail Mary pass with a couple seconds left.

Wow, why not go for 2 there? Awful D, awful special teams. Pretty good O. This is going to be a long season.

Plenty of offensive talent, but the defense and kicking game are simply horrible.

Just way too conservative on offense. And can someone inform the offensive coordinator that a fade pattern in the end zone is a low percentage play.

In hind sight that would have been the right (but gutsy) call.

Throw it up to Bateman. If he is suppose to be a first rd draft pick make him earn it.

Go for it? YES, but don't leave it up to a good throw/catch by that offense. Did you see how much room Ibra had when Green finally gave the ball up on the option read at the goal line? My gosh. It was the first time in 4,328 attempts that he gave the ball up. Run that exact play and Ibra could moon walk to the pylon.

On an earlier wildcat play near the goal line Ibra could have waltzed in to EZ untouched but Green kept it and didn't even have the awareness to follow Ibra opting to run to the right in to a pile of humanity.

I go for two there absolutely. The defense can’t stop anyone, why would you want keep extending overtime when you had a running back who had been successful at the goal line all night long?

We flat just didn't finish this game. Went to sleep in the 4th qtr.

Our defense is absolutely terrible.

The front seven is absolutely horrid. They made the Maryland running back look like Mike Alstott.

They also made the new Hawabamian the next coming of Steve Young. I'm sure he'll get all the headlines this week about how "great" he was.
