Running back Joe Burns set up Maryland's 20-17 victory with two costly plays. He also coughed up the ball in overtime, killing Georgia Tech's chance for victory. Burns' decision to run out of bounds drew a surprisingly harsh rebuke from head coach George O'Leary. I can't believe we did that. That's a major mistake.
Coaches usually keep their criticism of players behind closed doors.
O'Leary, however, is frustrated because his championship dream has given way to a nightmare.
