I think this one was well timed between USC and Michigan. Plus it coincides with fall break for the students.
the first one was a little more suspect. I see it being helpful with the short week but it’s not like they needed to worry about New Mexico.
I think they effectively dialed up more pressure in the first half but it felt like Kelly was playing with his lead as he often does he starts playing not to lose. The mandate was to keep Pittman and Vaughns from going off. That meant the run D was sacrificed and Amon Ra got more touches. But...
USC played its most fundamentally sound game all year and took advantage of ND’s conservative defense in the second half.
If they play that way the rest of the year they won’t lose another game.
Next year in the Coliseum will be rough.
Lol at ND’s victory over UCLA

He was committed to ND at one point. Apparently there were academic issues keeping him from being admitted. He’s got a chip on his very broad shoulders because of it. I’m amazed he only got 10 carries. It’s decisions like that which will cost Helton his job
I think if they make a bowl game he ought to get it. To consider that they pull that off after the year they had he would be as deserving as anyone else.
The next 3 weeks will be very telling about what kind of team they are though. Clemson UVA and Miami is going to be tough for them.
5-1. Overall they played well. The defensive game plan in the second half was too conservative and allowed Slovis to pick them apart and Stepp & co. To run wild but two things impressed me, Doeher came up huge, 3 FG 40, 43, 52 (career long by far) and the pong clock killing running drive for the...
Irish land 4* WR Deion Colzie class of 2021.
We seem to be recruiting well in GA.
Kid has offers from UGA and Alabama among others.
A lot of top end talent in the 2021 class so far. Consistent winning breeds results!
