ND vs UC Game Day Thread

[TheSodFather]

No way Coan goes back out there…right?

 

[ftnfan62]

We got a top 25 D now. But a bottom 25 offense

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Shocked MTA was not penalized.

Buchner time.

 

[NDIRISH53]

No complaining about the refs the rest of the day… shocked they called that roughing back

 

[TheSodFather]

WTF! Let Buchner throw the ball

 

[Johnnie82]

They know Buchner is a runner. Why not trick them and let him throw on first down?

 

[ftnfan62]

Most pitty pat call ever

 

[GDFan]

Lugg is a liability. Didn’t need to hold we had first down.

 

[Patrirish]

Coan with a horrible decision. Should have brought in Buckner for read option. Don’t know why they run the read option with Coan, he “NEVER” keeps the ball.

So how did Buckner do ?

 

[savvyandsassier]

Okay, I'm thinking Drew Pyne right about now. TB does not look ready yet, unless you're calling some QB designed run.

Jack Coan, god bless him, has a pretty weak arm. That was always true but lately it seems like those balls are really lofted something fierce. We need more zip, let's give Drew Pyne a shot!

 

[NDIRISH53]

The offense is OFFENSIVE

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Lugg has 15 yards of penalties and it's only the first quarter.

 

[GDFan]

So how did Buckner do ?

Couldn’t tell. Lugg killed the drive

 

[DieHard_Irish]

This oline shows zero improvement. They stink. False starts! Holding! QB pressure.

I actually think line is playing better except for lugg

 

[Get Nasty]

So how did Buckner do ?

Fine …. Lugg messed up

 

[Get Nasty]

Lugg has 15 yards of penalties and it's only the first quarter.

He’s been bad all season, but no other option

 

[Patrirish]

A TD on that opening drive would have changed the dynamic and respective confidences.

An opportunity lost !

 

[Patrirish]

Fine …. Lugg messed up

You think he did “fine” ?

You’re no judge of performance !

 

[TheSodFather]

Irish should be up big right now. Freeman is calling a tremendous game

 

[Johnnie82]

They are waiting for Buchner to run!!!

 

[TheSodFather]

This Buchner package is really poorly designed football

 

[Patrirish]

For Buckner to be successful he has to throw on first down

 

[Patrirish]

So how is Buckner looking ?

 

[ftnfan62]

Man that offense is bad

 

[TheSodFather]

You don’t want to let the Fresman throw the ball so you make sure all of his throws happen on third and long?

Absolutely Brilliant scheming Tommy Rees!

 

[savvyandsassier]

If BK wants to do some shit that will elicit legitimate hater criticism upon him, it's to start bungling up the QB position. And he's doing it right now. Get TB out of there!

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Unbelievable. Cincy rushed 4 while ND had 7 block.

 

[DieHard_Irish]

It ain't Buchners fault or Coan, this line can't run block or pass block. They flat suck. Get pushed back every time. Quinn has got to go!!

 

[BGI User 1596]

Man that offense is bad

Putrid!

 

[Get Nasty]

Kelly and Rees are a terrible combination…. Completely guessing on offense, no plan with any remote chance at success

 

[Golson5]

Coan or Pyne need to be playing. Buchner only running. There was nothing there where he was throwing either. Hes not ready. Big mistake by coach

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

That's on Freeman. MTA should never have to cover anyone. Ridiculous Freeman come on.

 

[Patrirish]

It ain't Buchners fault or Coan, this line can't run block or pass block. They flat suck. Get pushed back every time. Quinn has got to go!!

You’re correct, the criticism of Coan is misguided and unjustified !

 

[Get Nasty]

Unbelievable. Cincy rushed 4 while ND had 7 block.

Carmody got destroyed by fast but undersized DE

 

[TheSodFather]

They are so terrified of Pyne playing well we are left with slow processing Coan or wildcat Buchner.

 

[PHJIndy]

That's on Freeman. MTA should never have to cover anyone. Ridiculous Freeman come on.

Freeman didn't throw the interception!

 

[IrishHerb]

This OL is TERRIBLE. To run Kelly's slow developing offense plays, you need an offense line that can give you maximum protection. This one doesn't.

With a weak offense line like ours, you need to run quick hitting plays.

 

[Get Nasty]

That's on Freeman. MTA should never have to cover anyone. Ridiculous Freeman come on.

Yep, we do dumb stuff still, just not as often….
Kelly and Rees far bigger issue than freeman though

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Pyne.
