Think we should change QBs?

Too soon!!

That 2nd pick of the 2nd Quarter was just forced. Had yardage available in-front of him on the ground. Needed to score there. Rowe had 27 attempts in the 1st half. I get throwing to open up the running game, but giving him 27 attempts in the 1st half is ridiculous.

Maybe he can kick?

The first pick was inexcusable though. Even if he just takes the sack there you still preserve field position and possibly keep it a 1-score game. As someone suggested several days ago, if I'm Locksley I would have installed a wildcat package with Diggs, just to try and get the ball in his hands.

four down territory here, don't even think of kicking it?

Absolutely.

God I hate ESPN3. Totally missed that TD play. The ACC needs to do better.

It's the 5th conference of the Big Five(now that the Big East isn't considered a "big conference" any more), don't think the interest for BC/MD game is there except for the diehards.

Craddock didn't even get to kick the field goal. Confidence is at an all-time low for him.

I still think they could have done better. John Swofford is great when it comes to expansion/realignment issues. TV, not so much. He jumped on ESPN's first offer too fast. The other conferences all have multiple broadcast partners that put their games on TV, but not the ACC (Raycom doesn't count because that's a sublicensing agreement between them and ESPN, ACC has no role in that). And as for ESPN, this is about as shoddy and unprofessional as it gets. From announcers who can't get simple names correct to a horrible internet feed. Worldwide-leader my ass.

Nice little swing here for Maryland after being down 13-0. Marylands defense is completely unreal. They are lights out, and you may see some of these guys shooting up draft boards. Most notably, Kenny Tate, Demetrius Hartsfield, Darin Drakeford, Joe Vellano, Aj Francis, Dexter McDougall, Eric Franklin and the list goes on. These players have been great.

Could be worse, 5 years ago this game wouldn't even be televised, thanks to ESPN3, you got this atleast. You think ESPN seriously cares about these games? Add an ACC Network?

Here's an idea, Maryland football continues to improve, you won't have to worry about this "problem."

No ESPN doesn't care, they've made that quite apparent. The deal could at least have given games like this back to the schools. They could then sell it to RSNs. I'm sure CSN would love to be showing this game in the Baltimore/DC area, and the broadcast quality would show it.

And being the noon game, we wouldn't hear any whining about how the game had to be played for some FCS action

[Oriole85]

Anyone else nervous with all these runs from Rowe?

The downside is that graduation will hit the defense hard after the season. There'll be a lot of inexperience on that side of the ball next year.

[BSLMikeLowe]

Finally got the lead. Defense needs to keep the pressure on.

[ravens8589]

There is always a Stefon Diggs moment every game. Man, what an addition he has been.
