With USC up next, Maryland tries to stay ‘calm through the chaos’

In reflecting on how the Maryland football team had fallen woefully short of its expectations over the first half of this season, senior wide receiver Tai Felton drew a comparison to his sophomore year, when he contributed via special teams in addition to being a top reserve on offense.

It did not go well for Felton during his initial foray returning kickoffs, when a fumble overshadowed his three returns for 105 yards. In the next game, Felton had the ball bounce off his face mask while attempting to field a kickoff, leaving his confidence even more shaken.

But Felton recalled gathering himself after that uneven stretch and refocusing on fundamentals, leading to a promising finish to the season.
