The Terps (4-7, 1-7 Big Ten) entered the game as one of the lowest ranked rushing offenses in the conference, while the Hawkeyes (7-4, 5-3) relied on their running backs more than any other team. That dichotomy was certainly on display at SECU Stadium. With sophomore quarterback Jackson Stratton making his first start of the season, Iowa handed the ball off 58 times, gaining 268 yards and two touchdowns. Of Maryland’s 57 overall snaps, the offense rushed the ball 26 times for 98 yards and zero scores. The Hawkeyes’ success on the ground contributed to them dominating the clock as they ran up a 37:41-22:19 advantage in time of possession. Terps coach Mike Locksley acknowledged the benefits Iowa accumulated from its rushing attack and clock management. “It gives them confidence to sustain drives,” he said. “When you look at what they were able to do and get executed, when you’re dealing with a quarterback that’s not healthy, it’s what you would want to get accomplished, and we weren’t able to do it in the run game. To take a little pressure off of our quarterback, you need to be able to cover people up, and in the last few weeks, I saw us do that. Today, when you talk about the run game, it takes just one breakdown, and now it looks like it’s not working. We had a few of those one-man breakdowns that didn’t allow us to get into a rhythm on the offensive side to help our defense. That’s what we would have needed to do.” Here are three observations from Saturday’s loss. The redshirt junior quarterback had one of his poorest outings of the season (5 of 8 passing for 26 yards and zero touchdowns) before getting knocked out of the game after a hard tackle in the third quarter. But he set the tone for his teammates. Edwards injured the thumb on his right (throwing) hand a couple weeks ago, according to Locksley, and wore a glove to protect the thumb. The pain was enough to prevent him from throwing in practice until Thursday. “We just kind of tried to rest the thumb to give him a chance,” Locksley said. “He gives us the best chance to win as our leader on the offensive side of the ball. But obviously [with] him not being able to go, we tried to add the run game element and tried to focus and force the run game like we did a week ago.” Edwards’ determination did not go unnoticed by senior wide receiver Tai Felton. “All week, he was fighting just to play in the game with the thumb,” said Felton, who caught six passes for 57 yards and two touchdowns. “His thumb’s been hurting all week. Like I tell you guys all the time, he comes in ready to work — hurt or not. He was still in the facility morning up to sun down all week. So he obviously was putting in the extra work with recovery and stuff like that, trying to get the thumb right. That guy’s a fighter. I appreciate him so much, and he does a lot for this program in his three or four years he’s been here.” Redshirt sophomore MJ Morris replaced Edwards, went 12 of 23 for 103 yards, and mixed two touchdown passes with two interceptions. But barring further complications to the thumb or the physical shot he absorbed when his helmet collided with Iowa junior safety Xavier Nwankpa’s with 7:27 left in the third quarter, expect to see Edwards suit up for Saturday’s regular-season finale at No. 4 Penn State (10-1, 7-1). Maryland’s 13-0 deficit at halftime could be viewed as a small victory for the defense. In the first half, Iowa amassed 200 total yards, 139 rushing yards, and 15 first downs while controlling the clock for 22:52. But the offense was forced to settle for a field goal in the red zone and got two wind-aided field goals of 54 and 50 yards from junior kicker Drew Stevens. And after Morris connected with Felton for a 12-yard touchdown with 11:05 left in regulation, the Terps trailed just 19-13 and were probably entertaining thoughts of a comeback similar to the one they accomplished in a 29-28 win against USC on Oct. 19. But on the Hawkeye’ fourth snap of their next series, redshirt freshman running back Kamari Moulton took a handoff around the left end and raced 68 yards to the end zone to help the team reclaim a two-score advantage. That pretty much ended the notion of a Maryland rally. “It was frustrating, but it was just one of those ‘Damn’ moments,” said senior outside linebacker Donnell Brown, who ranked second on the team with nine tackles, including one for loss. “We should’ve had him, but things happen. My thing is, they get a long run, cool, but now we’ve got to bounce back and keep bouncing, and I feel like we did.” After Moulton’s score, Iowa’s defense intercepted Morris twice to essentially seal the outcome, and Locksley was left contemplating how inconsistently the Terps have played this fall. “We’re within six, and that long run kind of took the wind out of our sails,” he said. “It goes back to complementary football on offense, defense and special teams.” Before the game, Maryland honored 22 seniors. That might have been the high point of the day for that group. At least for the present time, the seniors will have to wear the ignominy of the team mired in a four-game losing streak and a stretch of six setbacks in the past seven contests. That’s bound to depress anyone. Related Articles “They are down, and it’s all I can do to not be like them because I know the work that they have put in,” Locksley said. “You look all across the country, and you see teams that are struggling like we’re struggling right now, and you see people quitting and not playing and opting out. I’m not saying that won’t happen, hasn’t happened, but I can just tell you that I don’t see that with this group. These guys are fighters. They embody that fighter’s spirit, and hopefully, that’s something that they’re taking from me because I’m even more motivated to figure this out for our fanbase, for our program.” The seniors should be celebrated for their roles in helping the Terps finish above .500 in each of the previous three years and win three straight bowl games for the first time in school history. That group will be sorely needed if the team harbors any hope of upsetting the Nittany Lions and ending the season on a high note. “We’ve had a good run here, and this gives us an opportunity to hit reset, and we want to do it pretty quickly,” Locksley said. “Next week is part of that reset. So we’ll finish it the right way. One of the pillars of our program is how we finish. We want to headbutt it, and we’ll go up to State College and headbutt the finish.” Saturday, 3:30 p.m. Big Ten Network 105.7 FM Penn State by 23 1/2
The former Tory chancellor, now chairman of the British Museum, suggested Sir Keir Starmer had contributed to a warmer spirit of the negotiations over the famous ancient artworks. Greece has long called for the return of the Marbles, also known as the Parthenon sculptures, and maintains they were illegally removed from Athens’ acropolis during a period of foreign occupation. The British Museum – where they are currently on display – is forbidden by law from giving away any of its artefacts, and the Government has no plans to change the law to permit a permanent move. But under Mr Osborne’s leadership, the museum is negotiating the possibility of a long-term loan of the sculptures, in exchange for rolling exhibitions of famous artworks. No 10 has indicated the Prime Minister is unlikely to stand in the way of such a deal. Speaking on Political Currency, the podcast he hosts alongside former Labour politician Ed Balls, Mr Osborne said the museum was “looking to see if we can come to some arrangement where at some point some of the sculptures are in Athens, where, of course, they were originally sited”. He added: “And in return, Greece lends us some of its treasures, and we made a lot of progress on that, but we’re still some distance from any kind of agreement.” The Greek government has suggested negotiations with the museum have taken a warmer tone since Labour came to power in the summer. Mr Osborne appeared to concur with this view and praised Sir Keir’s hands-off approach, adding: “It is not the same as Rishi Sunak, who refused to see the Greek prime minister, if you remember, he sort of stood him up. “So it seems to me a more sensible and diplomatic way to proceed.” Kyriakos Mitsotakis, the Greek premier, discussed the Elgin Marbles with Sir Keir when they met on Tuesday morning at Downing Street, he said after returning to Athens. Mr Mitsotakis has signalled his government is awaiting developments on the negotiations. A diplomatic spat between the Greek leader and Mr Sunak emerged last year when the then-prime minister refused to meet his counterpart. Mr Mitsotakis had compared splitting the Elgin Marbles from those still in Athens to cutting the Mona Lisa in half. The marble statues came from friezes on the 2,500-year-old Parthenon temple and have been displayed at the British Museum for more than 200 years. They were removed by Lord Elgin in the early 19th century when he was British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. Some of the remaining temple statues are on display in the purpose-built Acropolis Museum in Athens, and Greece has called for the collections to be reunited.
It's been one month since the U.S. presidential election. And while Republicans and President-elect Donald Trump have been busy setting up a new White House administration, Democrats have spent the past four weeks trying to diagnose why they lost and how to move forward as a party. One person who thinks he has an answer to that is Ben Wikler, chairman of the Wisconsin Democratic Party. He's now running to become the new chairman of the national Democratic National Comittee because he says it's time to reassess what matters most to voters. RELATED STORY | DNC chair slams Bernie Sanders' criticism of Democratic Party "There's clearly a lot that we need to learn about what just happened, but one thing that jumps out is that a lot of voters who were taking it on the chin with high prices — frustrated by those prices — weren't hearing from either campaign and were voting for change," Wikler told Scripps News. "Well those voters, I think that we have a chance to reach out to them and say 'look, Democrats actually want to fight for an economy that works for working people and Trump wants to give multi-trillion tax cuts to billionaires at your expense. And that is a message we know can win because it's won downballot, it won in 2018, and it won in 2006 when George W. Bush tried to privatize social security." Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is currently hearing a potentially landmark case on gender affirming care for minors — which has been a big point for Democrats to campaign on. But a Scripps News/YouGov poll released early this year showed that more Americans support than oppose laws aimed at restricting transgender care for minors. RELATED STORY | Scripps News poll: Americans largely support restricting trans rights Wikler told Scripps News that if he were to be named chair of the DNC, it's a no-brainer that he'd support American's right to make their own private medical decisions without worrying about government intervention. "Republicans want to talk about trans issues and go on the attack against trans people because that is their way of trying to divide the public," he said. "People do disagree about this. Republicans want to focus on that disagreement and use attacks on trans people in order to distract folks from the big legislation that they are planning right now — which is a multi-trillion dollar tax cut for billionaires." "Democrats are always going to fight for people to have their basic personal freedom," Wikler continued. "And at the same time, we're going to fight against those who want to dismantle the federal government and the programs like social security and medicare and medicaid that people rely on for their their basic needs and health care."
