Official ND - Nothwestern thread ...

[NotreDomer1]

Soft as hell. Would love a hard nosed guy like Fitz to take over our program. Imagine what he could do with the talent BK has!

Fitz blows

 

[Kraftwerk]

Just win guys....quit being petfectionists

 

[BGI User 1596]

What’s going on? Where Tillery? Where Dex?

NW imposing their will in the running game.

 

[DieHard_Irish]

Disappointing that NW is out physicaling our lines

 

[GoldCountryND]

Getting whipped up front right now. Wow. They are pushing the DL off the ball easily. Not a good sign.

 

[GWoodIrish24]

Get so sick of seeing smaller, less talented players, just absolutely make ND players look like high school boys.

 

[Johnnie82]

We need a turnover

 

[GWoodIrish24]

Do any of you even want to make the playoffs? This team is nowhere, I mean nowhere, near a playoff team. Lose tonight, lose at SC, and save us yet another embarrassment.

 

[BGI User 1596]

lets give Tony Jones more carries on critical downs!

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Stupid mistakes and the ball is bouncing nw's way. Adds up to a close game down to the wire. Not unless our D steps up and beats them down.

 

[brian822]

they had their chance to put a stranglehold on this game. Now they'll lose.

 

[wi_hoosier]

ND better get a lot more physical in this game, or their season is going to get blown up.

 

[GoldCountryND]

Great. Of course it’s a game. All this time off the clock and we got a measly 7 points. As sharp as this offense was in Books first 2-3 games its not the same now. Not quite as sharp.

 

[VTND]

Acc Refs 7 - ND 7

 

[GDFan]

This type of game is exactly why the team gets jumped by LSU last week. Sickening. The top teams aren’t putting up 7 points in a quarter against cupcakes. Ask Clemson!

 

[VTND]

Clemson has played no one this year.

[Johnnie82]

Letting them hang around and gain confidence. We should be dominating

 

[wi_hoosier]

Block in the back on Okwara

Big time... and no way it should have been missed.

 

[IrishInOntario]

Exactly how I expected this game to go. ND's run game has been bad for a while. Ian is doing a nice job but ND is making all kinds of little mistakes that are killing them. ND's running game is soooo average.

Now Northwestern has a lot of life and believes. Gonna be a dogfight! Let's enjoy a good one!

 

[NDIRISH53]

Our line sucks. Like by any decent standards, they suck.

 

[GWoodIrish24]

So, how far do we fall? 10? 11?

 

[IrishInOntario]

And Ian Book is still horribly inaccurate downfield.

You enjoy trash football?

 

[GDFan]

Clemson has played no one this year.

I would agree but you think it would be a 7-7 game halfway through the second if Clemson was playing nw? Not a chance.

 

[BGI User 1596]

Book looks fanta

And Ian Book is still horribly inaccurate downfield.

. He’s been exposed !

Yep this offense is seriously lacking now. The line is just very average and getting whipped. Dex has no holes. Not a playoff squad. Nothing wrong w 10-2 season but got to add a little more talent. Or bring back Heistand!

doesnt matter. the loss tonight end their playoff hopes

 

[NotreDame du Lac]

We are overrated. This game proves it. We should’ve lost to Ball State.

 

[IrishInOntario]

Our line sucks. Like by any decent standards, they suck.

Very Pittsburgh like game. ND can't bully anybody that isn't undersized or undermanned. They don't have the athletes to run by Northwestern either

This will be similar to when Michigan played Northwestern. A greasy, 4 quarter game.

ND's pass rush has been non existant thus far.

 

[NotreDame du Lac]

Michigan, a team we beat, gets to jump us with the same record.

 

[NotreDomer1]

Where’s Tranquil now?

 

[Johnnie82]

Even if we win the game, we probably won't be in the top 4 next week

 

[NotreDame du Lac]

We lost Barr’s. He was the only NFL talent on the OL. Probably best we don’t play Bama or Clemson. We’d get embarrassed.

 

[BGI User 1596]

ND turns Bowser into Hershel Walker.

 

[GWoodIrish24]

**** this. Turning yet another game off. Will not watch another until BK is gone. See you at the end of next year.

 

[ivan brunetti]

It is only 7-7 guys. Don't jump ship just yet.

 

[NotreDame du Lac]

Everyone knew we’d lose this game. We can’t win in November. Michigan gets better. We get worse. This is classic heartbreak ND. Luck also bounces against us in November. Usually that receiver dropa that catch and usually Yoon kicks that in. 10-0 ND. Or 14-0 if Book gets us td.

Just be happy we’re not playing Akron!

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Oline and Dline getting their asses handed to them and making a 3 star rb look like a Heisman candidate.

Worst running game in football but doing fine against ND. Michigan making a statement. So is ND. We are literally tied with NU. Clemson would be up by 30.
