  1. Pick sixes, kick and punt return touchdowns are always exciting plays in football, but aren't that out of the ordinary. Blocked kicks returns, however, happen few and far between and can change the momentum of a game at a moment's notice.
  2. Rarely do we see a "block six," but Texas and Maryland were lucky enough to deliver it twice. In the same quarter.
  3. In an already wild opening weekend matchup, Terrapins defensive back Antoine Brooks Jr. returned a Texas blocked field goal 71 yards with 11:43 remaining in the second quarter to extend Maryland's lead to 21-7.
