Notre Dame Gameday...

[Bulldog04]

Good effort to get that back. Wow

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

Gritty effort by Peña to get that ball back. Can’t have that.

 

[orange_in_VA]

Tony White is our savior today.

Everyone else is on notice.

This is the second half from last week all over again. Offense can't sniff a first down and defense killing themselves to make stops.

My gf accidentally washed my lucky Sean Tucker shirt, now this happens. Unreal.

Clearly you need to dump her

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I see, despite:

1) The D being unable to stop the run.
2) The play calling being atrocious.
3) Gadsden remaining the only consistent downfield threat.

The usual suspects are lining up to blast Shrader as the source of all ills. (first pass for int WAS inexcusable, btw)

I'm not bashing Shrader. I'm bashing the coaches.

If Shrader can't do the things that help him be successful, the coaches need to go through the adjustments.

The first adjustment is to see if he can be successful without running. Right now, that doesn't look to be the case.

The next adjustment is to go next man up and see if we can catch Notre Dame off guard by throwing in a guy they haven't prepared for.

 

[Flacuse]

That was scary!

 

[orangenauburn]

Yikes

 

[Bulldog04]

Shrader needs to run here. I understand he may be hurt. But you have to keep them honest

 

[OrangeDW]

Defense is badly outmanned size wise and have only given up 7 so far. All heart and coaching. Playing way above their heads and fighting for their lives.

Offense, you’re on the damn clock….

 

[Orangefizz]

Cuse is shitting the bed so far and needs more intensity. Clemson hangover??

 

[AZOrange]

We need to punch the ball out. The nd rbs hold it weak

 

[MikeSU02]

Shrader has to move this drive. If he can’t, get him out. If he’s too hurt to be mobile, he ain’t it.

He’s been pretty inconsistent since the UCONN game. He’s made plays at the right time for sure, but he’s also dug his team holes with his interesting decision making,

 

[Ragman2000]

Looked like catch interference that caused the fumble, am I crazy?

If he’s hurt and can’t run, then sadly go to the backup. He has little to no value just being a drop back passer

 

[Cuse181]

A number. Guys getting dragged at the point of contact, not wrapping up, etc.

They’re getting dragged because they being outmuscled, they’re not really missing tackles just aren’t big enough to bring them down. Not a good excuse, but arguing they’re missing tackles isn’t true

 

[orangenauburn]

Redemption drive. Get the TD, tie it up going to half.

We already adjusted D by putting more up front, which is why they passed on first down.

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

this is hardly the first time Peña has put the ball on the ground as a punt returner. Dino needs to find somebody else.

Courtney was reliable but gave next to nothing on returns. Peña is a threat & can make the 1st guy miss.

The bigger issue is that it’s an exact continuation from the second half last game.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

Garrett needs to win us a game he has to get us some points he’s a vet QB playing at home in a Dome.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

My gf accidentally washed my lucky Sean Tucker shirt, now this happens. Unreal.

That's rough.

Anyway...

she hot?

Their OC also helping us out a ton.

She needs to go

 

[PhatOrange]

I said I was worried coming out flat this weekend.

If Shrader is hurt run CDRW out there. We're not going to win with this game plan and Shrader not running.
