ND -BYU Game Thread

[BGI User 1596]

Defense needs to step up. Put some pressure on their QB...get a turnover would be nice.

BYU starting feel like they are back in the game. Need the D to shut them down.

That was a good start!

 

[Patrirish]

There is no excuse for that 1st down on 3rd and 17

 

[Patrirish]

I don’t like how this game is trending !

 

[mirer03]

Can't get a pass rush with 4...it's catching up to them

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Run on 3rd NEVER should have happened. BYU has the momentum now. D has to come up with a stop.

 

[Patrirish]

If ND doesn’t score a TD on this drive I don’t see things ending well !

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Well that was some DAMN good defense.

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Oline it is on you. Need to run it down the field.

 

[mirer03]

Dline is totally spent.

Looks like a tale of 2 halves. Gotta play 4 quarters.

 

[BM16]

WTF

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

DAMN it..... so BYU will take the lead in a few minutes. Will see what this team is made of in just a few.

Wow …debacle in the desert!

reminiscent of the bowl game vs OSU

Been a theme in Freeman’s brief tenure

Wash, rinse, repeat!

Terrible clock management

 

[IrishHerb]

Short yardage blues again?

 

[NDinNJ]

Terrible clock management

That's Rees trying to be a genius and change up the play based on the way the D lined up.

This is why you don't chase points in the first half

 

[Uncle Money]

Yes there is.
At 18-6 and 19-6 two BYU TD’s win the game.

at 20-6 two BYU TD’s tie the game.

Big difference.

6 minutes to go. If they had kicked the extra point they would be up 9 (two scores) instead of one score (8). Again, stupid decision to go for two that early in the game. Big difference FOOL.

Ouch!

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

TE screen needs to be taken out of the playbook. IT DOESN'T WORK!!!!!!!!

 

[IrishHerb]

May not matter but wasn’t a fan of the 2-point decision. Just kick and go up 13. No reason to risk a point there.

If we’d gone for 1, we’d still be 2 scores ahead of BYU

Nonsense, that was the players on the field

 

[Patrirish]

No guarantee that you would have made 1

 

[HDK]

Looks like Bracy pulled a hamstring.

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Headed to OT?

 

[NDinNJ]

Nonsense, that was the players on the field

Pyne was waiting for the call to come in from the sideline. By the time he got it, there was only 4 seconds left to get the play off

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

DEFENSE!!!!!!! Makes a HUGE play!!!!!!!!

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Lets grind the clock out....get some long runs...and leave Vegas with a W!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Golson5]

No guarantee that you would have made 1

Hahahaha you can never admit when you're wrong

 

[IrishHerb]

D got a big stop when needed. Now hope out O can do something.

 

[Patrirish]

Hahahaha you can never admit when you're wrong

6.2 % of extra points are missed.

hence for morons who don’t understand numbers, that means that extra points aren’t guaranteed.

Have someone who knows something about football explain that to you

 

[IrishHerb]

Whew! 😅

 

[DieHard_Irish]

For all the unwarranted abuse our coaches take on this board ... how about a big shout out for an excellent game plan. They deserve it

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Good win for ND.....IMHO in years past this team would have folded.

So while you are quoting percent of XPs missed…why don’t you also quote the percent of 2 point conversions made for those of us morons who don’t know football. Asking for a friend.
