MD At NCST 2005 Simmulation
A picture perfect cyber day, and what is expected to be a great game, but all announcers are picking Mario Williams and the Pack to win. Chris Roberts kicks off to Tremain Hall who returns it out to the 22. On the first play Jay Davis hooks up on bomb to Tremain Hall for 78 yards and a TD. Xp is good. Some how Hall got matched up against Wimbush and beat him badly. Jo Jo Walker returns the kick out to the 15. Lance Ball picks up 5 on first down. Ball goes up the middle and shocker NCST picks up a personal foul face mask for 15 yards and Terp first down. Hollenbach is sacked by Williams. 2nd and 15 on the 33, is a dump off to VD who catches the pass coming back to the line of scrimmage and is pushed out after a 1 yard again. Another sack, this time by John McCardo. MD punts and Podlesh lets loose a bomb to Tremain Hall who put on one move, and then was gone down the right sideline for a 73 yard return for a touchdown. XP is good. 2:55 remaining in the 1st quarter. Walker takes a knee, and MD takes over at the 20. Ball for no gain. Play action attempt to Walker, is incomplete, on a nice break up by State. Shotgun, and a sack by Demarcus Tyler. Podlesh to punt again. Hall returns the punt only 58 yards this time, but again for 6. (I think EASports got a little carried away with Tremain Hall's stats!) 21-0 after three touches by Hall. (NOTE TO PODLESH AND ROBERTS KEEP THE BALL AWAY FROM HALL) Jo Jo returns it out of the end zone to the 25. Ball for a loss of 1. (THIS MAY BE WORSE THAN THE BC SIM). Ball for another loss of 1. Hollenbach hit as he throws, and incomplete. Podlesh out again. Hall with only a 5 yard gain after some decent coverage. The give is to Andre Brown on a counter for a 65 yard TD run. Pending Xp is good. 28-0 with :37 left in the first quarter. MD takes a touchback. Hollenbach goes deep to Jo Jo complete for 52 yard pass to the 28. Play action, sack. 2nd and 15. (The first quarter end much to the thrill of this reporter!) Hollenbach to VD for a gain of 8. Had he not stepped out a first down was in hand. 3rd and 7, the pass was to Fenner, who had to come back for the pass, and wound up a yard short. Ennis comes out to attempt the 36 yarder which is. . . good! 4:24 left in the half, Terps down 28-3. Hall returns the kickoff from the 2 out to the 37. Play action across the middle to TE T.J. Williams for a first down and more to the 38. The next play is again complete to Williams for another first down to the 17. Play action complete to Brian Clark to the 1. The next play is a handoff to Andre Brown for a 1 yard td. 35-3. 3:17 still remaining in this one. Right now I think the Terps chances are about as good Lloyd Chirstmas' chance of going out with the Lauren Holly in Dumb and Dumber. "about 1 in a million. So you're saying I have a chance." Jo Jo has a nice return to the 35. A pass to Fenner gets the ball out to the state 40 before Fenner injures his foot. Hollenbach is flushed from the pocket, throws up a prayer on a whirling dervish type play, and it is complete to Derek Miller, however there are yellow hankies all over and it is coming back for holding. Have no fear though, because the next pass is complete to VD down to the 9. On first and goal after a TO, Miller is up ended in the backfield. Ball up the middle to the 8. 3rd and goal, Ball up the middle for 6. Ennis is out for the 19 yard FG. Kick is good with 51 seconds left in the half. Plenty of time for Hall or Brown to go the distance! Hall from the goal line to the 23. Davis's pass was broken up by McPherson. A dropped pass brings up 3rd and 10. A first down is awarded after a face mask on a short run. On 3rd and 4, a direct snap to Brown is eaten up by Milton Harris. They are going for it from the MD 46, but they call TO with 4 seconds left. They throw the Hail Mary, and shocker it is caught in double coverage by Sterling Hicks for a TD. At the half, 42-6. Lattimore returns the kickoff out the 26, but is coming back after a clipping call. 1st and 10 at the 10. VD shifts to the back field, but Hollenbach went to Walker, and the pass is incomplete. A screen to Walker gets the Terps a first down on a favorable spot. Ball stopped in the back field. 2nd and 13, Ball for no gain. 3rd and 13, FUMBLE, and Hollenbach recovers at the MD 8.
