ND was focused, we were overwhelmed

[Chip]

Feel kinda bad for the Orange crowd. We had good numbers and were dying to explode.

Oh well. Things have been worse. Way way way worse.

 

[PAcuse]

I blame you for yelling at the ND bus

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Oh well. Things have been worse. Way way way worse.

It could have rained.

Getting embarrassed on national TV and losing your star QB is pretty bad. But if you are talking about the GRob era then yes, it was way, way worse. Congrats to ND for playing a great game today.

Yes. We could be 3-9 and not going bowling.

 

[Briancuse]

We played and coached scared today.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

I don’t think we got embarrassed today. Man I wish Nykiem made the catch on first throw from Devito. I really don’t care about today let’s beat BC and get 6 ACC wins and 9 overall. Still an amazing season and today can’t change that at all.

 

[orangezen]

you can say same for BBall team

Teams lose their star QB all the time. Unfortunately ND’s injured QB wasn’t tested.

We were crushed at the line of scrimmage today. Both sides. ND thrives on big games. If the other team doesn’t...

 

[UelSU]

ND is way better than us, and our O didn't show up...and we lost the TO battle. Still a way better season than i was expecting. Now, the BB team... unacceptable.

If you came away discouraged with the performance, you got company.

If you came away discouraged with the direction of the program, you got problems

good post. I also think the team was a little shell-shocked after the loss of Dungey.

Not attempting to candy coat today's performance though, we got rocked.

 

[tbonezone]

ND's backup QB seemed to move the chains pretty easily.

Coached scared? Could you be a bigger troll?

How would you have coached?

 

[RF2044]

ND's backup QB seemed to move the chains pretty easily.

He only played about five plays.

He only played about five plays.

4 rushes for 44 yards and a drive culminating in a score. not bad.

Okay, he got one first down. BFD.

It's not like he played much, or had an impact on the game the way you're insinuating.

Bottom line they were better-faster and more of them. Somehow for me this is easier to swallow than a thee point loss.

We were overmatched and outplayed. It’s what happens when you have less talent.

They are better than us, but we’re not 36-3 level “overmatched”.

Just an awful convergence of everything that can go wrong, did.

Happens to have all coincided on one of the worst days possible, given the national exposure.

Will be interesting to see how Dino gets the team to respond after being embarassed. This, I believe, is the first time that’s happened in his tenure here.

“Worse” is relative to point in time. We should have played better today and not being disappointed just means people are wearing Orange colored glasses.

This was a miss. Big time.

Not going to disagree with people comparing to being better than GROB, but I’d hope people are comparing against where we are now.

Lol

Just back from the stadium. A better team won today. #3 team in country. Game felt like the 94 BC game where we couldn’t do anything right. Cusian said it best. Game stunk but the direction feels right

Hats off to ND. I’m rooting for them to knock off Clemson.

Your last sentence almost made me vomit

Notre Dame is prepared. They don't let SU do what we used and like to do FROM THE START. Other coaches would let players play for a few minutes and see what adjustments are needed. But Brian Kelly think 100% that SU is one trick pony. He doesn't think he needs to watch.
