My frustrating season continues. This week it started with SFla on Thursday night. After the way that game went, I should have known I was going to be in for a tough week. I had a larger size play on New Mexico and that went down the drain along with my Terps getting beaten in a tough late loss. Hopefully things will start looking up soon.
Clemson -3 -120 3.6/3 - I hate to bet against my squad but at this point I think the injuries to the OL are so extreme, that the Terps really are going to have a difficult time the rest of the year as they have virtually no depth left at all on the OL and basically are down to five offensive linemen. That's enough to form a starting unit, as long as nobody ever gets hurt or needs to take a play off. The backups are all walk-ons or freshmen. Jamie Thomas OG went down vs. Virginia with a broken fibula which is expected to sideline him for the rest of the season. This was on top of losing Andrew Crummey OG, and having a great season, to a broken fibula two weeks ago vs. GT. MD is also very short at the qb position with Steffy still sidelined with post concussion syndrome and no experience behind Turner. Thomas went down in the 1h and after that, Ralph was very reluctant to call any 5 step drop passing plays as the UVA front seven was getting a lot of pressure on the immobile Turner. The result was after a good start in the 1qtr and a half, MD went in a total shell in the passing game and were only throwing quick outs to the flat or WR screens and little dump offs. The offensive production went to shit the rest of the game, and Turner was sacked for a key safety by Chris Long to make it 17-12 MD late in the 3rd qtr. That safety proved to be a very key play and set UVA up for the late win, along with the help of some very ? calls by the zebras. As a result of the lack of offensive production the defense was on the field too long and tired in the 2h, giving up way too much on the ground to a UVA team missing their feature back. MD has played with a lot of heart this year but at this point with all the injuries on both sides of the ball I think they will really be taxed the rest of the year and anyone doing their preparation is going to test their revamped OL with some different blitz packages. Clemson seemed to get what they needed with a bye week and a tuneup against CMich this past weekend. They have a good running game and Harper has played well at QB. I think they will wear MD down in the 2h of this one and get the win.
