Duke postgame

[rikkitikki08]

I’ll say this, I’ll never enter another game thread. The Irish were down one point and a a bunch of posters kept saying it was over.I’ve got receipts, FUCK THEM GO IRISH. Lesson learned.


Also that last drive is why you brought in Sam Hartman even if he struggled tonight. Way to go Sam

Also again, were half the fans in the stadium Irish fans? Sure seemed close.

Gut check.
They played a top 20 team on the road AND the fucking ACC refs.
15-2 in penalties?
Duke never held the whole game???

I don't think I've ever been happier being wrong about a game. Sam and Audric, I'm sorry I doubted you. But please don't hold it against me. I'm a ND fan.

That 4th and 16 scramble is going down in history

 

[Rocket's Rocket Fan]

Loved seeing Hartman waiting to check on Leonard after the game. Absolute class act.

 

[Huntr]

30 regular season W's in a row vs ACC teams.

Postgame thoughts:


I’m ok with Hartman calling the plays in the huddle sandlot style.

I'll go ahead and admit I don't know football if Rylie Mills is really grading out as a top 5 DL in CFB.

I was one of those people and I'm so happy to have been wrong. I'll gladly eat my crow.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Irish covered!

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

@SouthSideChiDomer checking in on you buddy.
How you feeling after that win?

Heisman moment

We're gonna watch that like we do Quinn to Shark UCLA 06.

 

[greyhammer90]

ESPN's shit camera angles are good for suspense I guess. I couldn't believe it when he kept running and no blue jerseys were visible.

 

[FDNYIrish1]

All fucking heart. Rebounding after last weeks heartbreak to play in a trap like this against a well coached team is tough as shit. Thankfully these guys have no quit. This board is fucking depressing. So obvious some of you slobs never played a minute of any competitive sport at any level. Go Irish!!!!

Same for me. That was a disgusting offensive performance all around. Parker seemed clueless with calls. Sam won it on toughness for us. I am happy he plays for us!

 

[NormND_44]

Where’s coach K?! Where’s Coach K?! I’d like to know where Coach K is right now! 😡

 

[MacIrish75]

I’ll say this:

The defense was on the field the entire game and held Duke to 14. They withstood horrific offense and some questionable calls and made TWO key stands down 14-13.

We hate Golden sometimes, but those dudes kept us in the game so Sam could go win it.

Good shit guys.

 

[GoldenAura]

Boy I sure hope Thomas and Greathouse are back next week. I can’t make excuses for Tobias anymore, he’s been awful.

 

[AlaskanIrish]

If you were devastated last week, you should be jubilant this week. Hard fought. Anyone's game. We pulled it out.

 

[DillonHall]

Did you hear Freeman saying we were setting up for a field goal? That would've ended in disaster

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

The refs were the best players in blue tonight.

I'm not an excuse guy, but that was as bad as it gets.

 

[Irish#1]

Crazy how we kept blitzing yet Duke never got called for holding. We need to hire MAC refs.

 

[notredomer23]

Turns out in fact that divine providence is real

 

[MacIrish75]

Also, back to the “touchback.” How does the FUCKING BOOTH NOT KNOW THEY CAN’T REVIEW THAT PLAY?

Like that is unconscionable to me. How do you not know that isn’t reviewable? That was a huge play?

 

[#1rish]

Elko is going to get an absolute bag the next place that lures him away. Guy is a hell of a coach.

 

[RipWheeler]

Defense was honestly fine EXCEPT for tackling in the second half and dumb AF blitzes on 3rd downs. Golden needs to stop that shit.

Penalties and officiating in general was a joke. That booth review targeting when Bothelo is trying to wrap up low is crazy. Reviewing the punt out of bounds WHEN YOURE NOT EVEN ALLOWED TO is crazy. It’s just a joke and cost us multiple scores.

Parker has predictable tendencies and it’s killing us.

Tobias Merriweather… man… he went full Kadarius Toney. Bad situation there without Thomas and Greathouse.

Mitchell Evans and Howard Cross played their tails off.

Swarbrick needs to be grilled about the officiating. It’s the only question the beat should ask him. In fact he needs to be bullied about it because it’s his fault it’s an issue.

 

[greyhammer90]

Fuck the ACC. No calls our way all night, and gifting Duke 35 yards on their go-ahead drive with an illegal replay and a bullshit targeting that's going to cost us against Louisville.

Dude, you beat me to it. Totally fucked up.

Okay except we hate on Marcus for his in game coaching…but Elko actually should’ve gone for it on 4th. Go win the game. The decision to quick kick with Leonard won us the game.
