Notre Dame @ Stanford 1pm PT Official Game Discussion Thread

That field is in terrible shape, it’s like a high school field.

They need artificial turf like ND.

It’s beyond terrible

Agree. The field is atrocious.

Stanford getting lucky there... Frustrating drive for ND. Moving the ball with ease then Booker tips a ball intended for Claypool for what would have been an easy first down, then two plays later the terrible turf causes him to fall coming out of his break... Culminated by a missed field goal that I saw coming from a 1000 miles away.

This is a truly an ND vs Stanford game in Palo Alto.

Not sure why so much behind the line that last series. Could of, should of

 

[NotreDomer1]

Defense didn’t provide anything. ST did

 

[chaseball]

Stanford winning the yards battle through 2.5 quarter.

285-230

Owusu is a freak

Terrific athlete for sure.

He hit a solid kick. It was a weird movement at the end. On the play that was tipped, he had 1 on 1 coverage up top he should’ve went to instead. Think it was Keys.

One of those 3 stars that was just flat out undervalued in recruiting. Awesome job by Elko / Lea to watch the film and realize he was a lot better than what some may have thought.

Claypool is wide open to the boundary as well. Either was a good option, IMO.

I remember his off-season photos on Twitter. Gotta give credit to Balis as well. Owusu is 215 lbs but it looks like 150 of those lbs are in his legs and it's all muscle too.

 

[NotreDomer1]

Get the 1st dude.

 

[IrishInOntario]

Come on Ian...

Horrible game management there. Jesus.

What the heck what he thinking? Sometimes you have to get hit.

 

[BGI User 1596]

Get the 1st dude.

Afraid to take the hit....hilarious!

 

[Shulkswagen]

Punting is a liability all year

 

[NotreDomer1]

Afraid to take the hit....hilarious!

He’s got 30lbs on that DB. Get it. You chose to run Ian

 

[IrishInOntario]

ND is a much better team but Ian has had a couple tipped, made a couple bad decisions, the run game is an abortion and the turf has stopped a couple big plays...

Add all that up and you get 21-17 instead of 35-17 like it probably should be.

When have I seen this before? Oh yeah, every single time ND has played at Stanford in the past 10 years.

[tbonesays]

Is it me or do these talking heads seem disappointed Stanford is losing ? It’s sickening

They sound disinterested.

 

[NotreDomer1]

Let’s go offense. Gotta do better this drive

 

[BGI User 1596]

They sound disinterested.

They probably took Stanford in Vegas.

 

[NotreDomer1]

BS call. Stanford player collided with Correll. Unreal

NVM. Correll shouldered him.

 

[tkirish]

Please please please try and get the run game going. How hard can it be ? Stanford is starting to fade. A long drive is what the Dr ordered

 

[iupjes2001]

Hopefully, Jones put on better cleats

I like Jones, so I hate to rag on him...but unless those cleats have rockets in them they won't help on stretch plays...

 

[IrishInOntario]

That'a boy Bauer, you meat head.

 

[NotreDomer1]

Patterson getting blown up

 

[IrishInOntario]

Jarrett Patterson is terrible. Dude is as soft as it gets at center.

 

[NotreDomer1]

Nice throw

 

[NotreDomer1]

Drop the shoulder Tony. PUNISH THEM.

 

[BGI User 1596]

Tony Dorsett Jones finding his footing!

 

[NotreDomer1]

Screen game much better today

 

[BGI User 1596]

Maybe JA shouldn’t play!

 

[IrishInOntario]

What a joke this field is lol

 

[SIhoosier26]

This field is an absolute shithole, I would tell them to get turf or I would just stop playing there.

That school has more money than God. No excuse for them to have a field like that.
