You guys think it is a cramp ?

I have more trust in Kelly's word than Musburger's. Musburger over-exaggerates every single "injury". If I was listening to this game on the radio I would've thought it was a bad leg injury with how he was describing it

 

[South Jersey Domer]

The wince sitting on the bench didn't appear to say cramp.

Brian Kelly just said that it's just cramping. They'll give EG fluids and he'll be fine

I used to scream bloosy murder when I would cramps on the field. Those cramps are no joke my friend

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

**** **** ****ity **** ****! Please by some kind of miracle be cramps.

 

[Irishnuke]

Now our QB is hurt! If Tommy comes in he will just get sacked every down!

Please shut up.

[Count_on_Me]

I think we have them. We need to stop letting them get behind the secondary!!!!!!

Yeah drinking drunk loving this **** BROSSSS LOVE TO BE IRISH!!!!

 

[scUM Hater]

I have never seen a cramp in the location he was grabbing. I did not stay at a holiday inn express and am not a expert. I expect to see Tommy in the 2nd half.

Just put him on ignore. Dude's pessimistic whining is just too annoying for me.

 

[fortwayne_nd]

As someone has posted on this board before...Kyle has a way of hitting the BIG field goals. Nice kick for three points to end the half.

 

[arrowryan]

**** **** ****ity **** ****! Please by some kind of miracle be cramps.

Lol. I'm pretty sure it is

 

[ickythump1225]

Great kick at the half there, it's great to have a 6 point lead. The biggest thing will be Golson's health. I hope hope hope it's just a cramp and he just needs a breather and some stretching.

I really hope we draw up some good adjustments at half because I'm not comfortable getting into a shoot out with USC. I hope our defense pulls it together and we smother them in the 2nd half. The freshman has made some rookie mistakes, dropping the ball and throwing that INT so I hope we draw up some pressure. We don't need Eagles style blitzing but bringing in Manti every once in a while won't hurt.

I know some chicken littles, not just here but all over Irish Nation, are lamenting the close game but who is more battle tested than us? USC under Land Kiffin doesn't respond well to close games, we aren't fazed by close games. Just come out and play like we have all year and we are 30 minutes from South Beach gents!

 

[KPENN]

Ugh too nervous. Let's go irish!

 

[scUM Hater]

I just want to see some press coverage so our front seven can get some pressure. Diaco will make his adjustments and ND will be fine.

 

[Rocky2820]

You guys think it is a cramp ?

BK said it was a cramp, but that may have just been to keep the real info from the SC coaches from a game planning/adjustments standpoint if Rees needs to come in. I really, really, hope that it was only a cramp.

just find a way to win boys.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

The opening drive will say everything. Is the defense actually going to show up today? Will Wittek be phased by the pick? We'll see. GO IRISH!!!

 

[scUM Hater]

30 minutes until awesomeness. Do it boys

[ickythump1225]

Wow... Yet only up by six,... That's a win for SC

But we're still winning. We seem to play better in the second half in these close games. The biggest key is Golson being fine. The second biggest key is defensive halftime adjustments.

 

[ACamp1900]

Manti in the second half....

This!

The Coach Longo Effect comes into play in the 2nd half
