F#ck you fair-weather fans for giving up on the team

[savvyandsassier]

Both Texas and ND offensive coordinators shit the bed with 1st and goal in the 4th quarter. Both are overpaid and overrated. They both succeed because of talent and both resorted to poorly designed strategies and a showing of weakness near the goal line. Even a dejected Freeman after the game said we used Riley Leonards legs too much. What Denbrock and the UT OC have in common is they aren't as good as everyone thinks. You run the ball right at them and only throw high percentage passes when you have Big Mo(momentum on your side). Tommy Rees pulled the same crap near the goal line at Alabama. Chip Kelly took it right to our D inside the 10 yard line like a real man would. F next year. We should have won it this year. Drayk Bowen is a warrior and after his big play MD freezes up inside the 10? Go back to Cincinatti or Brian Kelly. Get out of South Bend.

Whew! That was pretty intense. What are you talking about exactly, I thought we scored on the opening drive?

I think Chip Kelly would appreciate being commended as a real man. For such a total offensive kaleidoscope, you couldn't find someone less committed to a traditional, smashmouth brand of football. But he did like to run the ball, but usually in a more clever, elusive, overwrought fashion.

I agree with all of this until you get to the end.

Its the "almost tied game" "few horses short" comments that really get to me.

At some point ND fans are going to have to WAKE THE F#*() UP AND SAY IT OUT LOUD / ACKNOWLEDGE REALITY that ND is way more than a few horses short. They are like 3-20 in their biggest games with the most on the line over the last 25 years and have been outscored in those games by at least a -200 point differential.

What is the constant in all of this performance ? (subpar talent during Kelly & Freeman years and subpar coaching during the Weis era)

OSU went up 28-7 or 31-7 at one point and then basically turned their entire game into a clock killing gameplan (almost like garbage time with starters at the early 3rd quarter mark) the horses were called off, they started killing clock on offense and playing loose/prevent coverage to keep the clock moving and to secure the win. That is the only reason why it ended up being a 2 possession game instead of a 4 or 5 possession game. It wasn't competitive.

You’re so full of crap it’s unbelievable
Nobody takes their foot off the gas and starts killing the clock in the third quarter
You know nothing about football !

 

[THUNDERSTRUCK111]

Idk. If before the game we were told ND would score 24 points most of us would have said that’s enough to win.
Our defense was the main reason we lost. Heck urban Meyer before the game said if Ohio st scores 21 they win. He didn’t think our d would give up over 21 points and our offense would be shut down.
In my opinion the NFL flirting with our coaching staff caused a big enough distraction to be a factor. Every day since Penn st was article after article about freeman and golden being top targets blah blah blah. Had the same issue in 2012 with Kelly and the eagles. Our D didn’t look the same as the past 12 games. Missed tackles, tons of mental errors , blown coverages etc.

We had a great opportunity spoiled !
Again just my opinion.

You may be right.

IF and it’s a big IF, IF any coach was engaged in talks with any other team, they bear some responsibility for not being totally focused !

 

[NDgreatestofalltime!]

He was terrible all year. But Golden needs some blame. I know the D was banged up and undermanned but that’s why they needed an A + gameplan. Instead they played soft out the gate letting osu get comfortable and dictate the game. Really disappointed in their preparation.

Terrible all year, ND had their largest margin of victory average in your lifetime.🤦🏼‍♂️

Multiple OL down or banged up, DL GONE, and this was against a team with an already superior roster. No ND team since Holtz’s showed this kind of fight in a major bowl/playoff game. Every game with BK was a blowout loss.

I love our guys, Faison, Greathouse, and CO., and I’ll root my ass off for them next year but NONE, not a single one is in OSU’s 2 deep at the same position. Their DL has THREE guys that may go day one, two fro sure. Our DL was a MASH unit.

All that and ND had a chance to draw within 5, if Jeter hadn’t missed a gimmie.

You people are insufferable.

 

[NDgreatestofalltime!]

So we don't have to improve the immense talent gap right? Smh

Immense talent gap, ND lost by eleven with a bunch of guys out to a team (OSU) that will be in the top 10 CFB teams in history with players drafted.

Give it a rest dude, Oregon, UT, Texas, etc. none of them had the overall talent OSU had this season.

ND can win with their current TALENT if most of the guys are healthy. You know what else matters besides talent, intelligence. Guys knowing situational football, understanding their positions like skilled surgeons.

Guess what ND has, a team with pretty good talent and superior intelligence to virtually every team they face.

I listened to Belichick tell McAfee that NE didn’t always have the best players but they surrounded Brady with extremely smart guys who out worked opponents with more talent.

Michigan beat Ohio St., in Columbus, for the fourth year in a row.

ChaseDoesn'tHaveAnyBalls has repeatedly stated ND is not a tier 1 team, yet outside of OSU, he hasn't stated any other team that is tier 1 based off of his criteria. His criteria appears to be 5 star recruits and F+ ratings.

Well let's look at 5 star recruits. Here is the top 10 teams with the highest team talent composite for 2024

1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Ohio state
4. Texas
5. Clemson
6. Oregon
7. Oklahoma
8. LSU
9. Notre Dame
10. Texas A&M

Alabama with the most talented roster failed to make the playoffs.

Georgia with the 2nd most talented roster, ND beat by double digits.

Texas lost to Georgia twice. Oregon ended up being soft as always and got destroyed by OSU

Clemson, Oklahoma, LSU, and Texas A&M all failed to make the playoffs.

So his claims regarding talent gap are discredited because Notre Dame beat the 2nd most talented team in the country by 2 scores

Now let's look at the extremely flawed F+ ratings

1. Ohio State
2. Oregon - destroyed by Ohio State
3. Ole Miss - Roster talent in the 20's and lost to 8 loss Kentucky, 5 loss Florida, and 4 loss LSU.
4. Notre Dame - Beat PSU with a roster talent ranked #11, beat Georgia with a roster talent ranked #2 by 2 scores.
5. Penn State
6. Texas - Lost to Georgia twice
7. Georgia - Beat Texas twice, lost to Notre Dame by 2 scores.
8. Alabama - Didn't make the playoffs
9. Indiana - Notre Dame dominated Indiana
10. Tennessee - Ohio State destroyed them.

He claims Notre Dame is not a tier 1 team, but he fails to list any other teams outside of Ohio State that are tier 1 based on his criteria. If Ohio State is the only tier 1 team then his criticism of Notre Dame should extend to every other team I've listed above. He won't do it because it would destroy his narrative regarding Notre Dame.

If he claim Alabama is a tier 1 team, they didn't even make the CFP and lost to 6-6 Oklahoma and Michigan in the bowl game.

If he claims Georgia is a tier 1 team, Notre Dame beat Georgia by 2 scores

Ole Miss? they lost to teams with records of 4-8, 8-5, and 9-4.

Texas? lost to Georgia twice whom Notre Dame beat by 2 scores

Oregon? Lost to OSU by a much wider margin than Notre Dame.

Penn State? Notre Dame beat them

Outside of Ohio State he can't name another tier 1 team because if he does he will lose his argument.

This is why he's not even worth responding to. He's disingenuous in his criticism and denigration of Notre Dame.
