Did we just run the?

Did we just run the?

I can’t believe it

take Mayer OUT

 

[NDinNJ]

Did Kelly play??? What # was he??? Your a idiot, a whinny idiot

Sure throw the players under the bus. Let’s ignore the fact that Kelly gets out coached consistently vs quality opponents.

 

[Patrirish]

3 man rush and they get a sack

unbelievable

 

[tbonesays]

This is the most idiotic 3-minute drill I've seen in years

 

[tbonesays]

Maybe try four of those forward passes instead of waiting until 4th and long

 

[NDinNJ]

Can’t wait to hear Kelly’s excuse this time. “Winning is Hard”

 

[Patrirish]

Another 3 man rush and they get to the QB !

Humiliating performance !

 

[wiu86]

They aren’t that good, we just have terrible coaches at a few spots, no oline, no second corner

Don’t look too bad to me. Tough to replace a 5 yr qb and virtually an entire o line now playing sundays.

 

[Get Nasty]

Rees and Kelly have no clue…. Freeman is split personality

 

[Scots-Irishballa]

Good game cinci , kicked our asses

 

[TheSodFather]

Pyne has to be the guy moving forward. No question! Give him the reaps and build the offense around him.

If he plays this whole game we win

 

[kev2225]

Shouldn't lose at home to Cincinnati. Ugh.

 

[tbonesays]

Are we really running ball

Kelly quit after that Cincy td.

 

[Patrirish]

Fickell is going to USC

 

[tkirish]

Well I was hoping for a win. Reality is ND just isn’t that good this year.

This not even a question

I’m not so sure of that but I think he will be the starter

Only one is playing on Sunday

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Yep. With the Oline being as bad as they are it was just a matter of time until it bit us. I mean we almost lost to Toledo......Toledo.....

 

[tkirish]

This could be a 4 loss or more year. Hope I’m wrong. Very disappointed.

 

[Patrirish]

Humiliating loss !

 

[GDFan]

only if WR’s didn’t drop passes and Pyne went in earlier. If he doesn’t start next game Kelly should be fired. Offense looked completely different with him at QB

 

[VTND]

Well there goes recruiting.

 

[Golson5]

Complete embarrassment.

Coaching and fans.

Weak as hell

 

[Bogie8870]

serious question..Is it BK or lack of depth that ND doesn't compete against top teams?

 

[VTND]

We have average coaching.

 

[NDinNJ]

Typical of a Kelly coached team. Year 12, and he still can’t win a big game. Beat teams with inferior talent, but lose against teams with equal or better talent. Rinse and repeat.

 

[tkirish]

I know I’m just venting. But can we once and for all put to rest that Kelly is an elite coach.

 

[Get Nasty]

only if WR’s didn’t drop passes and Pune went in earlier. If he doesn’t start next game Kelly should be fired. Offense looked comely different with him at QB

Agree and freeman going 3 down plus Clarence Lewis… oline can’t be fixed this year

 

[Get Nasty]

Another top 10 loss for Kelly….. only wins when we play depleted Clemson team … literally has half their starters out

 

[mbd11]

Only 14 is on the D. Against a good cinci offense. Our offense (Coan and the line) gave them too many points.

Agreed. We spotted them too many points in the first half with the 3 turnovers. If we don't make those turnovers, the game's much closer at halftime. Then the 2nd half could've been different.

But hats off to Cincinnati. They deserved to win.

It’s been a y rest for years…. Only question is can Nd get better, I’m not So confident

 

[NDinNJ]

He’s a very good coach, but he lacks wins vs elite teams, so no he’s far from elite.

Yes our offense gave them points but they also missed two chip shots fgs …. Our D gave up over 400 yards … pathetic

 

[ftnfan62]

Well we knew this was a 9-3 team. We just got beat. We should have gotten 3 and in first drive and not give 7 before half. Don’t give up those pics and we win. We are right back on the door step. Give it a year

We've beaten talented USC teams many times, and Michigan, Michigan State, etc. But I wouldn't call Cincinnati "equal or better talent." More like inferior talent. But they have a very good QB, which can be a difference-maker.

 

[mbd11]

The two interceptions caused a 10-14 point swing. Final margin was 11. So those picks were huge.

I am certainly disappointed with the loss. I think our weaknesses were obvious to all to see, but it was nice to get those early wins. it will be interesting to see if we now regroup and get into
a decent bowl game ?

I’m referring to top 10 teams. His record is atrocious vs top 10 teams.
