LSU has gobs of talent. Three 1st Round picks next year, Harold Landry and the bookend tackles, Emory Jones and Will Campbell. Not a particularly brutal schedule, no Georgia, no Tennessee, no Texas. But it's tough to start the season 0-1, even with the playoff
I don't miss that dude at ND.
The ND fan owes much to BK. When he took over, ND had lost sight of what was needed to be a major player in college football. He repaired the football infrastructure of ND football and that was no small task.
Agreed.
You should have heard the LSU fans after the game .They were not happy with Brian Kelly at all.
I believe it... no room for losing at a place like LSU.
We were lucky , mostly met really nice LSU fans. There was one guy at the end of our row that I told my friend we should keep away from. The guy was that typical overly invested guy whos whole life revolves around his team. The one who screams in your face if they win but gets super pissed if he hears someone in your group say anything bad about his team. At this stadium the whole crowd is forced to march over the bridge together and you didn't hear any "USC USC" chants or any taunting. I was talking with an LSU fan and asked if you guys had won would it be like this. He laughed and said no, thee would be a lot of yelling and chanting . He said , all in good fun except we do have some who get too drunk and are assholes. I'm guessing those are the ones you've run into.
They were like us, Didn;t know what to expect but they felt like they should win. I can't say we were as optimistic, even though I did put money down on USC to win. More than I was going to because I was going to parley ATM and USC and take the points but by the time got to the sports book they had closed bets on the ND game and I ended putting everything on USC to win outright. God saved me from picking against the Irish.lol
I just thought he treated his players like shit sometimes the way he yelled at them . He just did it so much that I'm sure they tuned him out. A good coach sometimes blows up on a player but does most of that when no one is looking.
Yeah, we all stood up and everyone including LSU fans were saying what a great catch it was. He also caught that last pass if I'm not mistaken. When that drive started I looked at my group and said "it's Miller Time" and Miller Moss did not disappoint. The guy is going to be special.
Never thought of that but so true. But I think it's coming. It was weird hearing people after the game say the B10 just beat the SEC .
You didn’t really “like” Brian Kelly. He’s just an unlikable mercenary type. He never got Notre Dame but he put together a great infrastructure with AD Jack Swarbrick (who does get Notre Dame). Next step for ND is getting a conference. It’s time. ND let the conference thing develop. It’s played out. It’s B10 and SEC and everybody else. ND needs to join the B10 full time.
He did get the Charlie Weiss stink off the ND program. But he hit his ceiling. He did them a favor by leaving.
