I was thinking the same.  Red's MO seems to be to start slow so he can play catch-up, I was ticked and about to demand a new coach mid-season.  I don't like being that guy.

I stayed loyal and watched the Orange close  to 9 at the half, mildly pleased since they were down 17.  Watched the second half and couldn't stop watching as they inched closer.  I was fretting the "we finally catch-up and then melt away", also characteristic of Red's style of coaching, but the guys simply didn't let up.  Very pleased when JJ got the lead and slowly built.  Loved Cuffe's glue-like defense on Sutton.  Loved Carlos' rebound/take away from a 6'10" defender, that series with no score cost ND about a minute of time.    
Not sure why the ND coach had a meltdown with a second left to play but it made the score look better.  I'll take the W.  Still not sure Red is the man for the job, but I'll give him credit for keeping the team focused, today, and keeping the pressure up.
