What is Landow's body count now?

Excellent points. I didn't see a single ND player go down with cramps, but saw at least 4 or 5 TAMU players cramp up. The O and D lines looked relatively fresh even at the end of the game. Our only injury that I recall was Faison going down with what appeared to be a tweaked ankle after he caught a pass and the defender went down on Jordan's ankle as he made the tackle. For all the pre-game hand wringing here about how the weather would adversely impact ND, the staff obviously had the team well prepared for the heat and humidity. Nice job.
You and Pat Irish just need to stop. Exchange your personal info and complain to each other with your stupid, ignorant comments.
well said.
Faison ankle was just a freak injury.
The team looked well conditioned,strong and fast. Big time credit to Landow and staff. All those guys on the Texas A and M o line were 330 lbs plus and we didn’t get whooped at all !
As far as the “morons” who were critical of Landows track record with acl injuries pay there 10$ a month to have an opinion on an anonymous message board to discuss Notre dame football topics. They are entitled to their opinions. Everyone here at one point or another have been critical of new hires on the staff including myself . The fact that the broncos let him go because of an unusual amount of injuries especially acl injuries raises a red flag for the fan base.
I’m hoping they’re wrong and that landow is a home run hire and it all becomes hindsight. Again Jmo. Enjoy the win and Go Irish. !!!
People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones and if you’re going to dish it out you’d better be prepared to take it, instead of whining !
ND was extremely healthy AFTER this game -- with the exception of Faison.
You’re conflating two separate issues,
Preseason injuries and the Texas A&M game
Even the announcers said that they were substituting to avoid fatigue in the heat
If you want, I’ll replay the game and cite the quarter and the clock for you.

Which TAM players went down with cramps versus injuries.
So it’s your opinion that whenever a team out scores another team in the fourth quarter it’s solely due to conditioning ? ? ?
The announcers stated that they were substituting to avoid being fatigued by the heat
You’re also conflating two separate issues
Preseason conditioning and the Texas A&M game and there is a huge distinction

There really should be a minimum IQ test before posters like you are allowed to post.
Why don’t you read the post you commented on ……… again, but have somebody with you who can explain it to you because you don’t have any idea as to the substance of the post
Golson. Delete this post! Otherwise expect some IQ score and challenge for you to post yours, along with a bet for whose is highest, etc…
I’ll back you up here. I saw no TAM players being carted off or the game being stopped due to TAM conditioning issues. Injury problems for TAM? Yes.
Notre Dame won because they were simply the better team.
Period.
You must not have watched. There were quite a few A&M guys being attended to throughout the game.
Well, then Louisville was the more fit team last season. Two touchdowns more fit. So were Ohio St. and Clemson, more fit.
That's a silly conclusion. Every year, Navy is the most fit team we play. They just aren't as good as we are.
Certainly tougher. Our guys played more physical and intense from the jump. It was fun to watch and fun to root for.
What facts do you have that proves ND was the more fit team ?
Or is that just an uneducated comment unsupported by concrete facts ?
Sorry, but you are wrong on this. You are correct that several TAMU players suffered injuries, but several cramped up in the 4th quarter as well. Go watch the game again. I cannot give you names and numbers of all the players, but one I distinctly remember was the safety who came in to play for Dalton Brooks (the safety who was ejected early in the game for the targeting hit on Riley Leonard). I think his replacement wore #3. He clearly went down with a cramp in his hamstring sometime during the fourth quarter. He sat down on the grass and grabbed the back of his leg, and the trainers came out and helped him try to stretch it out. There were others.
Since when is being concerned about an excessive number of preseason, season ending injuries, not grounds for discussion ?
It seems that you and others have a difficult time understanding the difference between preseason conditioning that caused six season ending injuries and the play of a single game.
Those are two distinctly separate issues
Cramping and QB throwing up on the field. And us taking over the 4th when we couldn't all game. Best drive of the night
Great job Landow
