Official ND - va game thread ...

No wonder I hate coming to these threads during the game. You all are knee jerking negative Nancy's. You think a top 20 team is going to come here an lay down?
They don't belong on the same field as Notre Dame in terms of talent, this is 100% coaching and not having your team ready to play.

Classic ND playing down to their opponent... Its pretty obvious ND spent the off season preparing for UGA and had a perfect game plan for that game only. They'll be lucky to get out of the season with 3 losses IMO... oh well...
 
Virginia is looking a lot better than most predicted. You have to give them some credit.
 
UVA running plays and their guys are OPEN.. their WR’s can get open and their QB is very good. We don’t have any of that. Irish pass D is so bad today it’s just sad. Going to need a huge second half cuz UVA is fired up and ready to roll. Good luck Irish.

This team is not top 20. 4-0 against weak opponents and they certainly don’t have top 20 talent all over the field.

This is why record is a poor indicator of team quality.

Virginia is ranked #37 in F&P+ this season. They kind of remind me of syracuse last year who despite being ranked in the top 10-15 in the AP poll, their F&P+ was way down in the 40s.
 
Awful last 3 mins. Halftime adjustments:

Offense:
Get C'Bo more carries
Keys, Kmet, and Young more touches
Clean up OL blocking
Book settle down
No more trick play or screen crap

Defense:
DBs wake up!
Pass rushers wake up!
Play assignment football

Special teams:
Make a play!
 
Why not .....It’s open all game long

Not really. Bracy needed his arm between the WRs arms on that and there's no TD. If Pride doesn't grab jersey, the WR doesn't get back to the ball, which was short of the sticks anyway.

Nd has WRs open downfield.... book can’t and won’t go there
 
remember these are young people, actual human beings! Last week was a gargantuan effort!
Try digging a 20’x30’ hole for a swimming pool, then try doing it a second time in 2 weeks!

Are you watching the same Virginia team?

QB NFL
6’7 LB NFL
They have two NFL WRs
They have an all American DB that will be in the NFL.
