Sam Young has some serious intensity for fresh. I love it.

the team that wins close games is the team that can run. so, this may not be a great idea
I'm just saying right now on this drive, not saying that they don't go back next half.

Even though we haven't really seen him but isn't Matt Carufel known to have a bit of an anger problem

and there's the answer to why you can't give up on the run. It improves your passing game.

These "research like a champion today", "play like a champion today", "would you like fries with that, like a champion today" commercials have got to go..

This is a scary situation.
Fake?.. UCLA probably knows about it.
EDIT: good call.

Is it me or does it get louder when UCLA makes a play then when ND does?

I have been an OK Darius Walker fan. Not completely sold on him but still I support him. I have to say this season I realize why he will not be a GREAT college RB or a GOOD NFL RB.
He goes down the first time he gets touched! He has no ability to make the first guy pay. Pretty much as long as you touch him you will tackle him.
We need to give these freshman a shot to add another demension to the running game. DW will always have a place but He will not be a great every down back.

We had better wake up in the second half or season over. Too many 3rd down conversions for a sophmore QB making his second career start on the road. It seems like their defense is confusing brady and weis. Defense needs to stop them cold on the opening possesion of the 2nd half. A tournover would be nice. Whats up with our tackling? I've never seen it this bad. Hopefully just rust from the bye week, and they'll tackle better in the 2nd half.

Three Things:
1) Can we try to run OUTSIDE the tackles? It's obvious that we're not going to run between the tackles on UCLA.
2) Can our defense tackle? Seriously... is it too much to ask?
3) Will Zibby please play his position? If he wants to be a LB, move him there and give another kid the opportunity to play the safety position right.

Oh, one more. Why have we abandoned our slant routes that worked so well last year? Seriously, UCLA is the perfect team to run these against since their LBers are stacking the line to stop the run.

It hasn't looked good but I firmly believe "old Notre Dame will win overall". They'll get it together in the 2nd half. Did anyone see Michigan State pull a Notre Dame and come back from down 35 against Northwestern?

i think that running in between the tackles is going to stop. i think that is why they brought Prince in at the end of the game, to try to get it outside. For the love of all that is good please tackle someone, please. There is no reason for the mistackling, a guy should not get hit three times and break it for a touchdown!

I hope ND speeds the game up in the 2nd half. They seem to have been successful doing that since Weis got there. Teams come in pumped up out of their minds playing against ND in Southbend, but as the game wears on, the pace catches up to them and ND takes over. Hopefully that will happen today.
