Fox Sports broadcaster Eric Collins delivered an instant classic of a call during a disastrous fumble during USC-Maryland on Saturday.

Rather than spike the ball and stop the clock in Trojan territory as time ticked down before halftime, Maryland tried to hurry to the line to get a play off.

The plan backfired spectacularly on the Terrapins, as the ball ricocheted off Maryland quarterback Billy Edwards Jr.'s hands after a long snap and was recovered by USC defensive end Solomon Tuliaupupu.

Collins was so baffled by the decision throughout, and his reaction to the fumble itself will go down in college football history. He sounded like he was watching the worst college football play of all time. It was kind of beautiful to hear how genuinely stunned he was.

"What a bad idea!" is one of the funniest things ever said on a college football broadcast as far as we're concerned. The fumble was atrocious for Maryland, but the call from Collins is a genuine all-timer.
