There has to be a precedent. It absolutely should not have been overturned, no way in hell. They “may” have got it wrong on the field but they sure as hell got it wrong on replay.

There's only so much you can do to fix a game. NIU won despite ND being on the receiving end of at least two freebies at very high leverage moments in the game.

Reminds me of the breaks Notre Dame got vs NIU late in the 4th quarter (remember that terrible ball spot that gave ND a first down on one of their last drives?)

Or the obvious PI on the niu first pick, or their countless blatant holding not called… oh wait, that doesn’t fit your narrative

Breaks… nd got one break… niu got countless breaks

there was another late 4th quarter officiating blunder that seemed way too convenient that gave ND a first down or stopped an NIU drive. I don't remember the specifics, but I recall two VERY suspect calls late in the game that went NDs way to keep them in it.

Replay got it wrong due to definition of indisputable… nothing was indisputable

The issue was they should never have called a catch on the field, no way they say anything to make them think it was clearly a catch

On the field got it wrong, but the replay room can’t just blindly overturn on field mistakes without indisputable evidence

I disagree. Louisville won on the chalkboard for sure IMO. Even though ND was in the game late and they turned it over 5 times (untimely penalties too), it was 33-13 before a late ND touchdown.

This… our game plan against their run was bad and our offensive plan especially third and forth downs was moronic

Replay got it wrong due to definition of indisputable… nothing was indisputable

On the field got it wrong, but the replay room can’t just blindly overturn on field mistakes without indisputable evidence

No way it should have been reversed. Video was bad.

Bad call on the field. No way he caught that ball. Replay got it right

Sucks but they made the right call. Never had possession

So tired of refs/replay literally deciding every game somehow they have to be eliminated and find a better way to officiate sports.

Shit call

Wow officials just called a holding on VT that was awful. If Miami holds hold they can thank the officials. Also I'm glad we didn't recruit Cam Ward cocky overrated 2 interceptions and a fumble tonight.

I think most agree to quit the 1-year rental at QB. Many feel the best QB on the roster was recruited out of high school, whether it be Angelli, Minchey or Carr. I’d rather go through growing pains losing to MAC teams with a guy who’s got a few years of eligibility remaining. I hated it with Hartman, hated it with Leonard. You want to build a team/chemistry? Build within

I’d be if I were to count how many times ND has been stopped for negative to no gain on early downs it would > 10 times against MAC schools. I’ll need to rewatch the Purdue game but I thought they spreaded it out more and misdirected?

You might be right on your number but I’m not sure if it’s a bad thing because how many times did ND have success out of these formations? I don’t know the numbers.

NIU ran the ball effectively against ND with TE’s just like ND has at times.

ND tried an end around with a bunch formation against Purdue that only gained two yards. Had the play been blocked better, the play would have gained more yards. As always, scheme and execution is what counts. There’s usually going to be a reason for which ND aligns in a particular formation.
