Northwestern punted just three times in its 43-3 rout of Maryland, and two of those punts came on their final three series when the game was never in doubt. Its offense was so dominant that it came away with points on seven of its first eight drives, and the Wildcats could have put up more than 50 if they wanted.
From its first few snaps, the NU offense looked in sync and in command of what it wanted to do. Facing third-and-10 on their opening drive, Ramsey connected with Ramaud Chiaokhiao-Bowman for 11 yards, which greased the wheels.
