If there was ever a time for tempo or Buchner.

We don't have our emotional leader in the head coach's first game.....I didn't want to believe it would make a difference but it certainly has.

Couple that with we have the worst prevent defense in the history of football

Yup. This says a lot.

 

[NDRock]

Too late to bring Kelly back?

 

[MacIrish75]

Kelly looks pretty smart now.

You were notably absent in the 1H…

 

[rtrn2glory]

We......... Were,.......... Winning....... By ........21 ....... Points!!!!!! SMH

 

[NDPhilly]

How can Kyren and Kyle watch this collapse and feel good about themselves?

 

[chicago51]

Seems like we started to play prevent and safe at the end of the second half.

No. We ended 1st half and stared the 2nd half trying to blitz their lights out like BVG was calling it. Last 2.5 drives on D have been a bit more coverage oriented but at this point we're gassed.

This is of course the answer, BK won a ton of big games. Lol

 

[Luckylucci]

What an epic meltdown. Total an utter collapse.

 

[Irishnuke]

What an absolute fucking disaster of a quarter. Team played poorly on O, D, and ST.

 

[IrishLax]

I think we’re cooked. Were too conservative on offense (not trying to score at end of 1H, punting on 4th and 4 from the 50, etc.)

Allowed Oklahoma State to get in rhythm and the defense looks totally gassed. They are exploiting our bad LBs and corners.

 

[NDPhilly]

We are due for a Spencer Sanders incredibly dumb play. He has at least 1+ every game.

 

[NDisme]

I mean I think you have to sit Lewis right now

 

[NDRock]

I missed the 3rd quarter. I'm assuming their defense adjusted and stopped giving us free 6 yard throws whenever we wanted it?

 

[MacIrish75]

Kyren, fine. Not Kyle.

But Kyren also doesn’t play linebacker.

 

[Irishnuke]

Kelly looks pretty smart now.

Go cheer for a different team or find a different board. Everyone is tired of your shit.

 

[chicago51]

I will say it seems MF prepared for this game better than BK.

But coaching the actual game has been a different story.

 

[irishtrooper]

I feel Kyren is missed hugely, but Kyle would shore up a ton of the pass defense issues. I’m so let down by their decisions. Understand their reasoning, but disappointed and it’s likely costing the program a big win when it finally gets a matchup (with our best players on each side of the ball playing) that we are ahead in talent by a margin

 

[Bubbles]

I'm so tired of pussyball; playing to NOT lose. ND hasn't learned a damn thing. It's early in the new regime, but F#@K me, its looking like more of the same so far.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Coan has too much fucking time to throw it away. Grow some balls.

Thanks Kyren.

 

[irishff1014]

Mayer damn you

 

[ThePiombino]

This is becoming unwatchable

Yeah and 3rd quarter had been pretty good to us so far this year if I recall

 

[chicago51]

Cohen played half of his life but is it Tyler Buchner time? We need a jolt.

 

[Rudy89]

Nothing will ever change with this program…

 

[NDRock]

Big catch! Let's go!

 

[rtrn2glory]

Now Mayer is stopping being the best player on the field....... Going to be hard to swallow this one for 9 months

 

[MacIrish75]

HUUUUUUUGE.

LETS GO.

 

[Irishnuke]

I’m gonna puke
