University of Maryland Football Beats Miami Team

Drenched in a mixture of sweat and rain, Randy Edsall spoke excitedly about winning his first game as University of Maryland Football team’s head coach.

Anyone who knows Edsall wouldn’t be surprised to know that he took none of the credit for the Terrapins’ 32-24 victory over short-handed Miami on Monday night.

“It’s not about what I did. It’s what the kids did,” Edsall said. “All I tried to do is come in and get them to believe that they could push themselves further than maybe they thought. They bought into the team concept.”

There were plenty of heroes for the Terrapins in this Atlantic Coast Conference duel. Nick Ferrara kicked a 32-yard field goal to put Maryland ahead 26-24 with 1:39 left, Danny O’Brien threw for 348 yards and a touchdown, and defensive back Cameron Chism played a part in two touchdowns.
