A horrific defensive half for the Terps
I had said before the game that I was interested to see how fifth-year Wake Forest quarterback Riley Skinner would handle Maryland's blitzes.
Terps fans, you know the answer but you don't have to like it.
How did Skinner do?
He led touchdown drives on the Demon Deacons’ first five possessions of the game.
The drives went 67, 80, 66, 57 and 77 yards to give Wake Forest a 35-10 lead in the second quarter.
Wake had only one punt in the first half, and it came with under two minutes remaining.
Maryland's gambling defense needs to be sharp or else it gets burned. Tonight, it's gambling -- and losing. The blitzes are falling short. Downfield, Terps defenders are getting faked out or missing tackles or both.
Wake Forest 35, Maryland 10, halftime

In Div. I, if you open the season with TWO walkons starting on your offensive line, you know that recruiting has failed and you are going to be outmanned. Get a grip Debbie, give Franklin the job now, so we don't have to eat $1 million, then fire him next year and move on. 2500 fans showed up in Berkeley for the opener........ you owe them a better product.

When are we ever going to recruit so that we are competitive. The last real coach we have had was Bobby Ross.
