A Ref Threw an Outstanding Block To Spring Maryland for a 75-Yard Touchdown Run

If you can draw up a play where you get to use an official as an extra blocker, I like your chances of picking up a nice chunk of yardage.

This umpire threw a more perfect block than any of Maryland's offensive linemen to send Roman Hemby 75 yards to the house. Stepped right in front of the defensive back, got his head across his body and lowered his shoulder. Picture perfect.

If Coach Cig and Indiana end up losing this game, that's the kind of play that can haunt your season. That official could be the difference in the Hoosiers being 6-0 when Nebraska comes to Bloomington and having just another year of mediocre Indiana football.
