[September 24, 2005] #16 Notre Dame (2-1) vs Washington (1-2)

What does everyone think about todays game with 3.5hrs before kickoff?

 

[weisfaninmass]

i say C-Dub runs the ball down U-Dub's throat -- look for Walker to get 185 yds running and RPN to re-emerge. Final score closer than game though, 28-17.

 

[BGIF]

Stanback seems more like Stanton than Palko or Henne. But he doesn't have MSU receivers. Lappano needs to make him mobile.

Everybody runs on Washington. Everybody scores on Washington.

Everybody scores on ND but not often enough. ND rolls on the ground and in the air. Special Teams has it best game.

Weis clears out the dog house. Everybody plays.

ND 45 - UW 13



Weisfan, watch for Sullivan. He better be on the field.

 

[KMac151993]

Michigan State looked good today, proving they are for real this year. GO IRISH BEAT HUSKIES!

 

[KMac151993]

Purdue lost to Minn. in 2OT, F Purdue!

 

[guff]

Penalties!! That's is one thing that is disappointing me about this team. Holding call negates first down which ultimately leads to a botched field goal attempt.

 

[KMac151993]

Well this is not what we needed.

 

[KMac151993]

The thing I don't like is that the same mistakes have been there week after week, penalties, bad tackling, and some mental mistakes.

 

[KMac151993]

3-0 after 1 qrt that is not very good against a bad UW team.

 

[guff]

Quinn really looks good today. I think as this game goes on the offense is going to really get rolling.

 

[KMac151993]

At this rate the D is gonna be ranked in the 100's this is a miserable defense UW is not a USC of the world, I can't wait till USC

 

[KMac151993]

The O-line is playing much better but this is an undermaned UW D-line, what is the deal with special teams, if that is a point of importance for Weis what is the deal? Last two weeks 2 blocked kicks and a botched snap?

 

[ACCIrish]

ya i think charlie forgot about special teams thiis week

 

[KMac151993]

What is this, we have the worst D in the nation.

 

[ACCIrish]

thank god for that int. this defense is struglling against a weak offense

 

[Aerosmith777]

can someone from the athletic department send over one of the baseball coaches to the football facilities and please teach Brady Quinn how to slide? Every time he takes one of these big hits in the open field my heart stops. He goes down for the year and I think we can kiss the season goodbye...

nice INT at least.

 

[KMac151993]

I agree, the O is playing pretty well but a couple of TO's have kept us in this game it should be 17-9 right now.

 

[KMac151993]

How many yards is Reggie Bush & Leinhart gonna have against this D?

 

[KMac151993]

12-3 didnt expect that.

 

[KMac151993]

If I am not mistaken 253yds (ND) to 243yds (UW) at the half.

 

[guff]

Chuck is not going to be happy in that locker room. Lot of squandered opportunities, bad secondary play. ND should be up by three TDs.

 

[KMac151993]

We don't deserve to be ranked this is a terrible showing and can someone please pick up a 4th and 1 for ND?

 

[KMac151993]

We need to establish another RB, Samardzija is playing out of his mind this season hopefully he sticks with football. For the rest of the game we shouldn't throw another pass just run the ball let Thomas run the ball some.

 

[KMac151993]

We have given up 1070 yds. passing this season so far through 4 games for a 267.5 YPG average last year we gave up 274.6 YPG and we have yet to play USC or Purdue. Minter better shape up that D or else the Offense might have to score everytime they touch it.

 

[KMac151993]

Not good that Morton went down, we can't use an injury like that.

 

[KMac151993]

No starter on O should be in the game from this point on.

 

[KMac151993]

Thats what I like to see, two claps to the effort Travis Thomas has given today.

 

[KMac151993]

What does everyone think about todays game?

 

[irishtexan]

ill tell you one thing, im glad its over because i was getting tired of hearing the announcers lick ty's ass every play. they acted like he is freakin jesus. we won by 19 so im really happy. the secondary played like shit as usual, but the defense made some good plays in the red zone, i.e., a fumble recovery at the one and a one handed interception grab.

 

[Irish Legend]

The DB's are terrible!!!!
