Officially Official Rose Bowl ND v. Bama Game Thread

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

What a great opportunity!

Time to shock the world!

GO IRISH!

 

[BGI User 1596]

Time to show they belong!

 

[Juniper_Run]

Late movement of the betting line was toward us. I'm really surprised. Hopefully someone knows something I don't!

 

[Yooper Irishfan]

Hoping for a miracle. If we were to win this, it would be the biggest win since 1988 undoubtably. Need to come out of the gate with our hair on fire.

 

[NDinNJ]

Let’s Go Irish!!! Shock the college football world and beat Alabama!!

 

[ftnfan62]

Big games rather go D first

 

[BGI User 1596]

Wow ..he rearranged Tyrees DNA with that hit!

 

[BGI User 1596]

Nice pass

 

[echowaker]

Ugh. Horrible decision.

 

[BM16]

Absolutely terrible series. The one run play nets the most yards and they stop running it. RUN THE BALL.

 

[Get Nasty]

Books most likely final game, Kelly finally chewing him out.... he must be so mentally soft

 

[Fightingirish595]

Multiple mental errors already. Shocking

Still early...time still to prove they belong!

Like taking the ball first and a qb draw on 3rd and long?

 

[irish4life767]

And here we go again. Book sucks. There I said it. Pile on.

 

[echowaker]

Sarkisian twelve steps ahead of Lea.

 

[Get Nasty]

Lewis, not athletic. Told ya

 

[echowaker]

Like taking the ball first and a qb draw on 3rd and long?

That wasn't the call.

 

[Fightingirish595]

Talent gap showing early

 

[Get Nasty]

Lea is trying to hide Crawford and Lewis... can’t have two huge holes in defense vs bama

 

[BGI User 1596]

And here we go again. Book sucks. There I said it. Pile on.

That’s really unnecessary this early in the game ....you’re talking about no 9 on the Heisman list!

 

[NDinNJ]

If this

Sarkisian twelve steps ahead of Lea.

And Rees 12 steps behind Golding.

 

[Get Nasty]

Marist was awful that drive too

 

[Harry Hondo]

And here we go again. Book sucks. There I said it. Pile on.

Book plays intimidated. He misses an easy pass whereas the Bama kid just calmly throws strikes.

 

[Fightingirish595]

Like taking the ball first and a qb draw on 3rd and long?

Making a stupid low percentage throw on first down that list 5 yards. Returning that kick was a bad decision too. Tyree caught it awkwardly

 

[echowaker]

Lewis, not athletic. Told ya

True freshman. Keep talking your track record is awful. Bilal can't play,Jones can't play,McKinley can't play. Find another sport.

 

[GDFan]

Well good news is, I’ll be able to do something else before the 2nd quarter starts.

 

[NDinNJ]

That’s really unnecessary this early in the game ....you’re talking about no 9 on the Heisman list!

With 30 wins, you forgot 30 wins!

 

[Get Nasty]

It’s a shame how Kelly can’t prepare an ND team for big games

 

[mva5580]

Talent gap has been showing since 1994. Why anyone is surprised/disappointed anymore is beyond me. At least there was a new Progressive parents commercial before I turn it off. Those are funny.

Ha ha live in denial .... I was right on all of them

 

[WhySeperateKnob]

Well designed plays, short quick passing plays, well executed and a competent QB........amazing...

 

[iubaseball]

If this

And Rees 12 steps behind Golding.

Notre Dame defense looks soft and about five steps behind Alabama offense

 

[BGI User 1596]

Excellent development!

 

[NDinNJ]

I believe the D will adjust, and give ND a chance. The offense needs to score, and right now that isn’t happening

 

[Get Nasty]

This is the play calling that gives you zero chance

 

[NDinNJ]

Rees, 3rd and 7 QB run. WtF?

 

[Harry Hondo]

That’s your 3rd and 7 call?

 

[rgc7]

Wow ! Do we look over matched !

 

[BGI User 1596]

That’s your 3rd and 7 call?

Schematic advantage of TR.
