Not much positive about the game. The Notre Dame defense is good and by far the superior unit. Notre Dame should be lining up with Book or Jurkovec at QB and Wimbush at running back.

This is the 2002 team all over again.

Good defense that masks the deficiencies of a shitty offense. We’ll be able to fool people against the Ball St.’s and Vandy’s and probably the Wakes of the world. But we will absolutely get exposed by Stanford. And we’ll lose 1-2 games we should win.

Wimbush can't play QB to save his life. I don't like Book either but at some point they need to stop trying to put the square peg in a round hole.

I’m so mad because there’s about 1/2 dozen teams I want to LOL at right now (topping the list is USC) but I in good conscience can’t because we stunk so bad today.

Yes the Irish stunk but they did get the win which is better than losing a game you should win.

Sure. It’s better to lament a bad win than a bad loss. But two conclusions can come from it. A. They didn’t learn from last week. B. They’re incapable of improvement. Neither outcome is very good.

When your punter gets the game ball, something’s gone horribly wrong.

Notwithstanding, Newsome was booming them today.

No.

In the Daymans league. I have Jafar Armstrong at flex.

But i agree. Book just looks better

It's obvious that Wimbush can do some special things with the ball in his hands just not throwing it.

Very. Wouldn't be surprised if a NFL team is taking a look at him saying that.

Saw the game. The secondary shined, but where oh where was the pass rush. Barley heard anything about a sack.

On the other side. If i were Darth Hoodie and Crew. I' d take a flier on Shumur. Accuracy and Ball placement are questionable, The lockem drop, but he looks like a kid who might pay off with bench time.

Notre Dame's offense with Shurmur would probably be better.

I don't remember an Irish team (BK era) ever improving in a season. They generally go down hill.

If we had gotten the two point conversion, we would have scored 24 points in the first three games of the season. That’s almost a positive.
