January 1 | Oklahoma State | Fiesta Bowl

[WildMan80]

How did we just go completely away from Buchner as well?

 

[irishff1014]

Fire Tommy Rees. He is trash

 

[Irishnuke]

Oh thank God for that penalty

 

[WildMan80]

I hope all the optimism about our future with this coach is put in check after this game…I don’t know how we can possibly have a good year next year after this.

That’s a bit of an overreaction lol

We've had some terrible individual CB performances over the years but Lewis might be taking the cake here.

 

[bobbyok1]

HUGE penalty

 

[rtrn2glory]

They look like ass and this sucks.

Stop being so negative

 

[ACamp1900]

27 unanswered points with a fumble at the 1 saving us from 34,…

 

[NDPhilly]

Oklahoma State has an elite defense. This shouldn’t be surprising.

Defensive collapse is the real story.

 

[Riddickulous]

TD takes the lead. Let's go boys.

Ok Rees time to make your money. Need some points. Need some time off the clock

 

[Irishnuke]

27 straight points. They’ve left the door open for ND but I have zero confidence the offense can do anything

 

[IrishLax]

For the record — 28 points should’ve been easily enough to beat Oklahoma State. The defense has been a joke since the drive right before half.

Really? 28 points in the 1st half. Haven't scored since. That's on our O, not their D.

Hopefully we put together one of those 11 minute TD drives we've put together all year

 

[MTLIrish]

While I understand OSU has made adjustments did the ND defence forget how to play football?

[FightingIrishLover7]

Have to go tempo. Have to.i know the D is tired. but a long tempo drive better than 3 and out slow pace

 

[NorthDakota]

Imagine going a quarter and a half without scoring on a big 12 team lol

 

[yankeehater]

Built by Bayliss has looked gassed since the 2nd quarter!

Why isn't Buchner playing? Could use the change up versus that defense.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Man the fuck up and win this game MMFF.

Dont give BK the satisfaction of a collapse.

Be the first coach since Holtz to win a meaningful bowl game.

How hard is it for a coach to institute a “No Opt Outs” policy before the season starts? Just fucking tell the captains that we are playing EVERY game as a team.

 

[chicago51]

Freeman prepared for this game well. We didn't start out flat as a pancake. Initial game plan was really good.

The issues I see are:

1) Lack of tackling during bowl prep. This is tricky. If you get someone hurt you're an idiot but I think you got to do it.

2) Not keeping up with adjustments

3) Poor conditioning (Balis slacking????)

We don't have a lot of elite players, unfortunately two of them opted out.

That isn’t feasible lol

 

[MacIrish75]

(Fisher and Alt and the rest of the OL have been really good today)

 

[Luckylucci]

Spencer Sanders has a Fiesta bowl record for total offense. You read that correctly, Spencer Sanders. LOL
