Hail Mary Haiku: Marshall edition

Time for this week's Hail Mary Haiku!   Corn from a Jar has won three weeks in a row, including last week with this gem for the Florida game:

Did you really say
You want Mayo with your cheese?
Ask, you will receive.

Here's the concept again: You're behind by a touchdown or more at midfield.  Only one second remains on the clock, and you have to heave the ball into a mass of players in the end zone and hope that one of your guys comes down with it.  Oh, and bonus points for actually observing the traditional 5-7-5 format for haikus.  Free form haikus are allowed, though.  This is, after all, a desperation play.  I'll post the entries tomorrow morning along with a poll so's we can vote for a winner.

Hike!


Marshall comes to town
UT, who can't stop the run
Stops Thundering Herd?

Blech.
