One nit amongst a generally good performance yesterday...

Although we scored at the end of the first half, our time management, especially in the two minute drill, remains staggeringly inept. We took over at our own 36 with 5:15 to go in the half with just a 3 point lead (and Maryland getting the ball to start the second half). 3 minutes and 27 seconds later, we had advanced the ball a whopping 23 yards, and were now in a two minute offense with 1 timeout left. After that, until the last snap, which I believe occurred with 25 seconds left (the TD was scored with 16 seconds left), we ran just 5 plays in 1 minute and 23 seconds, which included 2 incomplete passes and a first down, for a total of 19 yards, and were still outside the red zone when the final play occurred.

Was anyone else screaming, either at the TV or at the game, while this was occurring?
