Bad things often happen when you fumble the football. Today just happened to be Maryland’s lucky day.

On 2nd-and-goal from the two-yard-line, Terps QB Caleb Rowe appeared like he was going to take an option play into his own hands and charge towards the end zone. But at the last second, opted to pitch it to RB Brandon Ross.

Because of his indecision (and the fact that he was about to get rocked by a USF defender), Rowe just sort of threw the ball to the turf.
