The irony of ironies—Why is this Saturday’s game against FSU —Redemption Day
The entire Maryland football program will be looked at entirely different with a victory this Saturday. Don’t believe for a second it can’t happen. FSU is already looking past the Terps figuring out what bowl they will play in and awaiting the Florida game. If you think the Seminoles are that strongremember BC had them deep on the ropes at Tallahassee. It took a 55 yard FG to … Read More »
Ralph after yesterday’s game
Who would have thought? Well this is what it comes down to. Win this Saturday against FSU and then defeat NC State next Saturday and yes we will be playing Virginia Tech in Charlotte for the right to be one of the BCS 10. The prize –a trip to the Orange Bowl.
Some observations of a great day at Scott Stadium :
Compact stadium ———-took 3 hours to get here
Again the d could not stop Marc Verica early- 165 yards passing in first half
Virginia had 14 penalties for the day—however several were for pass interference that saved touchdowns. Early in the first half a UVA corner virtually tackled Torrie that saved a TD –Terps were rewarded with a 15 yard penalty—rule must be changed
UVA receivers were wide open for the … Read More »

Nothing else needs to be said. Can the Terps stop QB Verica and the UVA offense. Can a 60 minute team show up today. This is a CRUCIAL win for the Terps for many reasons.
I guess if you would have told me that the Terps would be 6-3 at this point of the season back before the Navy game, I would have signed a contract. But as you saw today the Terps are probably every bit as good as anyone in the conference save Virginia Tech. The turnaround has been quick and a big step could have been taken today with a victory. But>>>>>>>
This one is going to sting for a while. I … Read More »
Just an odd fact. The stars are aligned in Maryland’s favor
Jacory Harris is probably out as he has yet tp practice this week
Damien Henry-Miami’s Premier RB is Out!!
Whispers everywhere in Florida about the future of Randy Shannon
Small crowd expected at Joe Robbie or Sun Life or whatever it is called
Danny O’Brien might be the hottest QB in the ACC but he faces the 7th best passing defense in the nation
Charles Bankins has the special … Read More »
Okay it’s just an exhibition game but there were a lot of things even an impartial fan had to be impressed with.
Seniors–Gary swears by them–acts by it– and in so many cases (Dave Neal, Calvin MacCall, Boom Osby, Matt Kovarik, to name a few) he is rewarded. Cliff Tucker played like a Senior should in the 1st half. He took control and wenyt to the bucket. Coach Williams … Read More »
Maybe it was a slow process. But DHB is beginning to show the promise that led him to be the 8TH pick in the NFL Draft. yesterday against Seattle he had 5 receptions for 101 yards including a 69 yard TD pass. He also ran once for 30 yards. The Raiders crushed Seattle 33-3.
