Whatever Tommy rees' thought process is for third quarters he needs to burn it and start over being more aggressive

Really can not understand FANS like you . And their are numerous on this site. You make blanket statements about scheme , game plan and skill sets with no expertise in any of those areas . I realize fans have opinions and should. But to make statements about
no adjustments ,”OL play sucked” demonstrates your lack of knowledge in those two areas to start.
The Irish opened up with one of the top 3 teams in the country , with 3 Heisman candidates , a veteran huge offense line on the road in front of 106 thousand rabid fans . The Irish lead with approximately 20 seconds remaining in the 3rd quarter!
I would be willing to bet that would not be the case the remainder of the regular season.
And to state TB did not make many plays , although an accurate statement, there were many reasons why . A depleted and very inexperienced receiving corps being one.
Have some patience.

Have some patience.

I would say anyone still choosing to be an ND fan at this point has PLENTY of patience.

The offense was shut down in the second half. that should be a cause for concern with anyone who was paying attention. To state the obvious doesn't equate to a lack of knowledge or experience. Elmer Fudd was an expert hunter....still is if you can find him on the channel.

So was the great OSU offense for 4 quarters . To state that no adjustments were made in second half is ridiculous. And that the OL sucked as well.

never said no adjustments were made....I said the offense was shut down in the second half. Doing alot of what doesn't work repeatedly and consistently = shut down.

Yeah, agree, some of this is just insane.

Go to the official OSU site and they played-rotated 10 different DL throughout the game and 3 of the 4 starters were ex 247 Composite 5 stars in HS. All the rest were 4 stars including #51 - Mike Hall - who was blowing everything up in the middle and was a high 4 star in HS. Yet, the OL sucked. For some of the football geniuses on here, how do combat a depth issue - as coaches - when your players are getting tired because they're facing fresh players on every series?

Good God, get real

Didn’t say YOU said that ! Read my comments ! They were made after initial post!! I guess the same could be said for OSU . They were completely shut down for three quarters and really the whole game . With all there offensive talent.

That probably says more about the ND defensive coaches and schemes. I'll say it again, great job ND. You can almost bet that any program that Marcus Freeman runs will be very strong defensively - a given

Stupid posts like yours are a dime a dozen around here.

ND needs a QB. Thankful for the transfer portal.

Exactly why ND should become a basketball school. The football program is never going to win anything.
