And our offense had just gotten done manhandling the Maryland D and getting a TD? A TD from Maryland being happy to play prevent defense and let USF eat 8 minutes up. That's what they call a Pyrrhic victory. Couldn't afford more 8 minute drives. You might have a point if that drive happened in the 4th quarter and we scored with like 5 min left. But it happened in the 3rd quarter and we scored in the 3rd quarter. No team defense is "happy" to let it get down to an 11pt (2 score) game with an entire quarter still to play. Even if we took enough 8 min on a that first drive in the 4th quarter, there still would have been 5:30 min left in the game with it being a one score game. Again, no teams going to be "happy" about that. There's enough things to complain about on Saturdays game without making stuff up. Bingo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MD would take that drive every game of the year being in the position they were in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think they'd take a cold backup QB who has a history of turning the ball over coming into the game inexplicably over that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
