USC v. LSU

[FightingIrish44]

So, at ND, Kelly beats FSU in 2020 and 2021, beats USC from 2017-2021, but loses to FSU and USC three times in a row at LSU.

Looks like you were the issue Kelly.

 

[christophero]

It appears USC is back. They look like a top 20 team.

 

[ftnfan62]

Yes in terms of their respective histories kelly is better (far better) which makes him the far likelier bet to be the better coach going forward. Which is also why he's one of the highest paid coaches in the business. The market is already dictating who the better coach is presently and who the better coach likely is to be going forward.

If Marcus Freeman produces a top 10 F+ finish in 2024, he'll likely get renewed at ND, and that contract wont be anywhere near BKs 10/$100M+. Why? Because Brian Kelly's track record nearly guarantees an annual contender while the jury is still very much out on what kind of coach Marcus Freeman is.

BK just dropped his opener at a neutral field. MF went into hostile territory with a line with 6 combined starts and won. I don’t know if the jury is out as much as we think.

Great win for USC. They're looking like our toughest game remaining.

Diaco and his great hair are on Kelly's staff. Just saw him on the sideline.

 

[sjb75]

USC deserved to win. Made more plays as Herbstreit said.

No…just another big game BK twerking performance!

 

[mva5580]

Looks like ND's 2 toughest games of the year may be their first and last.

The LSU faithful won't look kindly upon this loss....Kelly better do something really good the rest of this year/next or he may not be there much longer.

 

[IndyIrish24]

Big game Brian

He’s got somebody lined up to throw under the bus!

Brian Kelly left Notre dame in a much better place than he received it but I’m so happy he left

So is Brian Kelly.

A win win.

[NDinNJ]

And according to F+ & SP+ LSU is the better team by a healthy margin and should win this game tonight.

How did that F+ & SP+ work out for you tonight? What a tool you are. LMAO 🤣

[Golson5]

They only have 3 long road trips. Michigan, Minnesota, and Maryland.

ND travels to TAM, GTech, and USC, so it's kind of equal.

Those 3 are much longer than ours. We'll see how they deal with the physicality of the big 10 and the travel by week 12

 

[mva5580]

"Swiss Cheese."

You two deserve each other.

 

[christophero]

Looks like LSU plays Alabama but not Georgia. They do play Oklahoma but the rest seem winnable.

F+ means something else in Cajun!

I'm sure it's the players because it's never his fault.

At USC will be a tough game.

You can have Kelly. I'll take Freeman and it's not close

🤣🤣

Ole Miss, and @TAM

After 12 seasons, so do I.

Hell, Lou Holtz was ready to move on after 11 seasons.

 

[ZibbyQuinn]

OK.

100M for that? You watched him for 12 yrs at ND and still thought he was worth 100M? You Californians sure do know how to spend money wisely

 

[sjb75]

Ole Miss, and @TAM

That's life in the SEC. That's what he signed up for.

 

[NDinNJ]

Holtz was pushed out.

 

[sjb75]

No particular order, if I had to begin a coaching search:
Kyle Wittingham
Dabo Swinney
Kirby Smart
Lance Leipold
Luke Fickell
Marcus Freeman

After reading this, our discussion is over.

We will agree to disagree.

 

[futuredomer]

Has he lost the opener all 3 years at LSU?

 

[sjb75]

Holtz was pushed out.

True.

 

[futuredomer]

Holtz was pushed out.

It just shows he truly knows nothing about ND!

 

[Fightingirish595]

Has he lost the opener all 3 years at LSU?

Yes

 

[sjb75]

It just shows he truly knows nothing about ND!

Absolutely. Nothing.

Thats why we have you.

 

[Telx1]

At USC will be a tough game.

Only saw the first half; and they are much improved in nearly all facets. They will be a very tough game if we both develop as expected.

 

[IndyIrish24]

"Swiss Cheese."

Yea at the time it was, quit being ****in weird bro

 

[christophero]

Yes

This (Kelly 0-3 in openers) is a title on Tiger Droppings of one of their threads. Just took a quick look. They are not happy with Kelly.

 

[futuredomer]

Absolutely. Nothing.

Thats why we have you.

My first like for you in 15 years

 

[NDinNJ]

LSU 10 penalties for 99 yards. Undisciplined, and unprepared team.
