Officially Official ND v. Stanford Game Thread

[Patrirish]

Maybe Coach Freeman just looks concerned, unlike many of his players tonight. The wake up call must come soon.

How do you know whether the players look “concerned“ or not ?

What kind of TV do you have ?

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Was so pumped for this game. Really though ND would come out and dominate from start to end but that is out the window. I had gone 45-17 ND....would like to change that to 27-24 ND.

I dunno what it is but they have yet to play a complete game.

Mayer didn't hold!!!

nice hold

 

[Patrirish]

Wtf is Kiser yelling at players to not touch ball after blocked punt

Because they could fumble it

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Wtf is Kiser yelling at players to not touch ball after blocked punt

That's the right thing to do.

Nice play

 

[PHJIndy]

Stopped on 4th down inside the 5!

 

[PHJIndy]

Run the big guy or throw the ball!!!!

Stopped on 4th down inside the 5!

Bad execution! Lols

 

[TheSodFather]

Pretty dumb 4th down call

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

Did not know that Stanford had a top 5 defense...Jesus this is just horrible.

 

[BGI User 1596]

Pretty dumb 4th down call

Schematic advantage…just poor execution!

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Mental errors and lack of execution.

 

[GH56IRISH]

Gonna be a long game with these refs. Missed an obvious hands to face against standford on the goal line TD. ND players head was pointing straight up at the sky.

 

[Get Nasty]

That's the right thing to do.

No it’s not… Stanford could and did advance it

 

[Get Nasty]

You want to see bad coaching watch this team … way too many mistakes mentally and assignments to not be coaching

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

I can appreciate the expectation and the guts to go for it and convert. But at this juncture with mental errors and not executing. You play it smart and kick the FG.

 

[IrishHerb]

I do NOT understand why we have so much trouble in short yardage situations.

 

[Fifthhorseman25]

So you don't run your 230 lbs RB behind a line with a weight advantage on the Dline but instead run a fly sweep....when you haven't been able to run outside all year so far. Dumb, dumb, dumb.....

 

[Patrirish]

ND’s failure to score is solely # 88’s fault.

When he lined up he was an ineligible receiver and he and he alone negated a TD

 

[TheSodFather]

This defense is looking like they are going to need Stanfords help to get stops tonight

 

[GDFan]

Worst 1st quarter of the year? How do the players not get pumped for night game at ND. Awful!

 

[Get Nasty]

I do NOT understand why we have so much trouble in short yardage situations.

For the last 6 years we haven’t had a qb and wrs consistently make teams pay for loading box

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

No it’s not… Stanford could and did advance it

No. Only if it's behind the line of scrimmage can a guy on the offensive side pick it up and run with it.

 

[Patrirish]

I do NOT understand why we have so much trouble in short yardage situations.

It’s been a systemic problem for years, like you, i don’t understand why

 

[Get Nasty]

I expected a few bad coaches this year but pretty much across board is alarming… whatever plan freeman has to teach and coach is failing

 

[Get Nasty]

No. Only if it's behind the line of scrimmage can a guy on the offensive side pick it up and run with it.

Wasn’t it?

He’s learning on the job!

 

[TheSodFather]

There is no 3rd and long safe with Al Golden

 

[Get Nasty]

Our 3rd and long secondary D scheme is moronic… we let teams catch the ball with head of steam and room to make moves…. So dumb

 

[Get Nasty]

There is no 3rd and long safe with Al Golden

We go ultra safe allowing them an easy 10 and all it takes is one missed tackle for first down

 

[christophero]

Just get a win. I don't even care if it's close.

 

[BGI User 1596]

Yeah, he should dial up one of those deep corner blitzes!

 

[Patrirish]

He’s learning on the job!

Is he ?

 

[GH56IRISH]

If this Stanford qb gets rid of the ball in 2.4 seconds why are the DB’s playing 10 yards plus off the receivers? Dumb.

 

[Patrirish]

Wasn’t it?

No

 

[Shakin' Down the Thunder]

Wasn’t it?

The ball of course was blocked behind LOS. But the ball traveled past thr LOS. A Stanford player did try to pick it up and run it but the ref blew the whistle and spotted the ball where the Stanford player first touched the ball.

HH is an offensive line whisperer!
