Cards fan? Gross.

Go Redlegs.

Coach Kelly post practice conference....

 

[beryirish]

our guys understand the importance of Mon-Thurs. in their preparation. this week hasn't been about "Oklahoma".

When your team is focused on more on selves than who opponent is, that's good.

Perfect Practice Thursday !! #LetsGooo

 

[beryirish]

team brought s'mores and sang campfire songs for (BKs) birthday today. Nice to share light moment with them.

really like the way golson practiced this week. Confident, throwing with authority.

 

[beryirish]

golson had no physical setbacks this week for the first time in some weeks.

kids hear enough about game hype. they're 7-0. this game doesn't need me to talk about it.

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Woah.... I kid brah...

 

[beryirish]

similarities to kansas st. will be relevant only if the game is in the balance. if we're close in 2nd half there will be lot.

we'll have to withstand early onslaught from oklahoma.

 

[beryirish]

this group believes all you need to do is give us a shot and we'll find a way to win the football game.

 

[beryirish]

kelly says he'd like to play more nickel/dime defense, but says Irish don't have the personnel for it, even against OU's spread.

Toma bring consistency and keeps Davonte Neal from seeing more PT on offense.

 

[beryirish]

Kelly says GAIII good enough to start at RB - veterans keeping them out.

 

[beryirish]

We've had music on all week to work on offensive communication during Saturday's game.

Q: on how much he enjoys the challenge of playing a team like OU?
A: not that much

 

[beryirish]

The challenge is always about how we bring our game up. Need our best game on the road.

The group doesn't really care about what other people think. They come and practice. Know game depends on how they execute.

Kelly on Zeke: We wouldn't be here..without his play. He's led that secondary.

 

[beryirish]

neither golson nor rees are complete, but they're pretty good football players, they both can help us win.

We're trying to use the strengths of both Rees and Golson. Both have balance.

 

[beryirish]

Focus will primarily on defense moving forward. On offense it's on players not plays.

His offense at ND may never look like his offense at Cincy and that he'll continue to focus on D first.

 

[beryirish]

Reason...

at cincy and c. mich. he had to put people in the stands, here they've sold out since the 70's. To win championship it starts with D.

"I don't need to sell tickets...I need to win football games."

Somewhere.... ACross from NDnation has a single teardrop in his eye and has no idea why...

 

[domerdude]

Of course they're looking at Golic the same way.....LOL

Golic is listed at 295 or 300 depending on the chart I look at. No one on OU D line is 330lb...

On the OU rancor towards us- Coach "Well they don't know us. If they knew us, they'd love us." #BeatSooners

Josh Flynt‏@NDSportsBlogger

Coach says @IrishChocolate9 has been petitioning to get a goal line package on offense.

I think that is huge. If they can withstand the early attacks, they may be alright but they gotta survive the beginning and settle the game down.

.@NDJackNolan The NCAA has determined that of the undefeated teams, @NotreDame has the most difficult schedule.

I have a dilemma. My girlfriend won tickets to the Nebraska vs Michigan game this weekend and wants me to go with her? Obviously with the impending game this weekend with Oklahoma the decision seems simple to me, which is not to go and stay in to watch ND. What am I to do?

Depends on how willing she is to "convince" you to go with her.

Nah! Nevermind. Stay home and watch the ND game!!!

 

[ACamp1900]

I would go to the game... if ND loses, you still went and enjoyed the NU/MU game, girl is happy and you didn't miss anything... if ND wins you are happy, girl is happy and you also got to enjoy a good college game.

 

[woolybug25]

I'de get drunk, watch ND and pass out on her coach in the nude covered in green jello.

Thats exactly what I was thinking. I bought her Nebraska vs Wisconsin tickets for her birthday, which was planned because of Notre Dames bye week. It was a great game to go to, and Nebraska has a great atmosphere. Her being a Nebraska Alum, she is obviously a fan. I told her to see if anyone else wants to go with her, and if not I will go. I guess if anything it will show how much she wants me there, ha!
