ND vs CMU 9-16-2023

Feed the BEAST!!

Chew the clock. Then again Audric is probably gonna break one for the TD.

Given the circumstances with OSU next week its not a shocker we've struggled today. My biggest concern is Hartman's knee. At best it got tweeked & I dont want to even think about at worse. Ugly victories are apart of football. No such thing as a flawless season.

OSU didn’t look so hot today either. As a matter of fact, they haven’t really looked that good all year.

He played terrible today. Either out of control or feet stuck in cement. Tough day.

Yes but the reps he got today will do wonders. Its frustrating but you see the talent. Once the game slows down he is gonna be a stud

Beast mode!! Let’s sit him now. Haha

 

[NotreDomer1]

Estime said, “Just give me the damn ball!”

 

[NotreDomer1]

Beast mode!! Let’s sit him now. Haha

Pete Carol coaching?

 

[ftnfan62]

Great pass and catch.

 

[NotreDomer1]

Nice catch Holden!

 

[PHJIndy]

Scuffling with CMU is not good, but the Irish are looking ahead. Glad to see 41 on the board!

 

[GH56IRISH]

Ballgame.

 

[Good4Bad]

everybody breathing easier now?

 

[NotreDomer1]

Ballgame.

Finally. Expected that at halftime before kickoff though. We’ve gotta get better and quick.

 

[ftnfan62]

How about a pick 6 to end this!

Knew we’d win, just didn’t expect the struggles honestly. This was a very ugly game

Yeah, this one won't make the highlight reel, but hopefully it all comes back next week.

 

[PHJIndy]

Home run ball on 1st down!

 

[ftnfan62]

Lots of highlights for game day. They will show the crap out of Estime and Sam’s passes. Gonna be great to see the game day.

Meh ugly wins count the same & believe me ive seen uglier ND wins than a 24 pt victory vs a MAC team. We all knew the season started vs OSU. We will.see who we really are next week.

Home run ball on 1st down!

I liked that call a ton

 

[PHJIndy]

I liked that call a ton

Yep!

This defensive front will have to stiffen up next week. Can't lean on linebackers to cover more of the field than they should have to. Good win...but still not sold on the interior of the defense front.

 

[FightingIrish44]

578 yards of offense. Not bad for what seemed like a sub-par day. I’m more concerned about the defense.

That’s were the concerns should definitely be. Our offense won’t see the ball as much against better offenses. The defense needs to learn how to put three good plays together in a row

 

[PHJIndy]

No concerns for me. The fires will be burning next week! Bring on the Buckeyes!

 

[mbd11]

Good game overall. But the offense was sluggish at times, and the defense as well. We'll need to be sharper next week vs. OSU. Go Irish!!

Good news a 41-17 struggle. Not a Marshall or Toledo struggle.

Can agree with that. I’ll take an ugly win vs a loss any day

 

[ftnfan62]

I still think Tommy and Buch lose a that game.

 

[NDblitz]

WKY rolled the team Bama is struggling with. Ohio state is a lot better than some people on here think they are

 

[ftnfan62]

I think OSU is a top 5 team at every spot but QB. Like UGA, they make mistakes. I think ND is much better than people here think we are. We played as vanilla as possible.

I like our chances but we will see

That could end up being a nightmare against OSU

Definitely the game for it for sure.

Agree but their QB - McCord - is really getting better and better every game. He's starting to live up to his HS 5-star rating

I agree... vanilla! Believing ND TAKES THESE 4 games and puts it all together! Wide open play book..

Health check on chase! ND “craps” it’s way to a 24 point win..
